No remote mutation.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Side effect</td>\n<td>A decision-diary entry documenting why one world won.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Done</td>\n<td>The decision and its rationale are recorded in the decision diary.</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<h2>Inputs</h2>\n<p>Winning decision: the world or option that won. Required.\nConsidered worlds: every option that was on the field, including the winner. Required.\nRationale: why the winning world won and why each rejected world lost. Required.\nDecision-diary location: the local file path where the entry is appended. Required; if no location is established, the user must supply it.\nOptional inputs: date, surrounding context, human opinions, agent doubts, and obvious assumptions that shaped the choice.</p>\n<h2>Procedure</h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Confirm the winning decision and the full set of considered worlds from the user. Do not infer a winner or invent options that were not on the field. Done when: the winning decision and all considered worlds are confirmed from the user.</li>\n<li>Capture why the winning world won, using the user's terms. Done when: the winning rationale is recorded in the user's own terms.</li>\n<li>Capture, for each rejected world, the reason it lost. Done when: every rejected world has a loss reason recorded.</li>\n<li>Record any human opinions, agent doubts, and obvious assumptions the user names as load-bearing for the choice. Omit this section when the user names none; do not fabricate doubts or assumptions. Done when: named opinions, doubts, and assumptions are recorded, or the section is omitted because the user named none.</li>\n<li>Compose one diary entry containing the winning decision, the considered worlds, the winning rationale, the per-rejected-world loss reasons, and any named opinions, doubts, or assumptions. Done when: the entry contains all five elements.</li>\n<li>Append the entry to the decision-diary file at the agreed location. Create the file only if the user confirms it does not yet exist and names this path as its home. Done when: the entry is appended to the diary file at the agreed location.</li>\n<li>Read the entry back from the diary and confirm it is persisted and readable. Done when: the entry is read back and confirmed persisted and readable.</li>\n</ol>\n<h2>Failure and recovery</h2>\n<p>Missing rationale: if the user cannot state why the winning world won, stop and ask for it. Do not invent or paraphrase a rationale the user did not supply.\nMissing diary location: if no decision-diary path is established and the user does not supply one, stop. Do not write to an arbitrary or guessed file.\nPartial write: if the entry cannot be written in full, no partial entry is committed. The diary file is left unchanged.\nBlocked result: return the missing input and the unfinished entry text. Never report done when no complete, readable entry is persisted in the diary.</p>\n<h2>Output</h2>\n<p>One appended decision-diary entry at the agreed location, containing in order: winning decision, considered worlds, winning rationale, per-rejected-world loss reasons, named opinions or doubts.</p>\n","files":[{"path":"agents/openai.yaml","sizeBytes":204,"isText":true},{"path":"SKILL.md","sizeBytes":3444,"isText":true}],"reviewScore":null,"reviewSummary":null,"trust":{"provenance":"trusted-source-unreviewed","notice":"Community-authored content, reproduced verbatim and not vetted as instructions.
