Documentation

README

Excerpt

Munger Observer

Review decisions and artifacts, not people. Use practical mental models as questions, never as proof or authority.

Activation and scope

Activate for an explicit request to review a concrete decision, plan, proposal, or artifact, including an explicitly configured scheduled review. If the request asks to assess the user's personality, motives, intelligence, rationality, biases, or mental state, do not make that assessment. Ask for or identify a concrete decision or artifact and offer to review its observable evidence and process instead.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
