Evidence

A good use of this skill should leave at least one concrete artifact:

• a decision, checklist, command, test result, design note, finding or patch;
• the assumptions that mattered;
• the remaining risk or verification gap.

Avoid these common failures:

• giving generic advice without applying it to the task;
• skipping verification when a check is available;
• hiding uncertainty or inventing evidence;
• expanding scope beyond the user request.
