Excerpt

Build Risk Review

Don't build it yet. First name the one assumption most likely to make it fail.

foundation-build-risk-review is a fast, pre-commitment gate for product decisions. Given an idea, a feature request, or a scope change, it returns a Build Risk Review: the single biggest risk, the evidence behind it, a verdict, and a concrete no-code validation step, then routes you to the skill that does the next piece of work. It is a foundation hub: its job is to triage and dispatch, not to duplicate the deeper skills.
