What is the purpose of the establish-metrics skill?

It helps you turn abstract drivers into measurable data points to determine if a project or strategy is on track, based on Philip Mudd's HEAD intelligence framework.

How does this skill identify a 'critical blind spot'?

If all metrics for a particular driver are rated as Red (insufficient data), the skill flags it as a critical blind spot, warning you that your analysis is based on assumption.

What do the Green, Yellow, and Red confidence ratings signify?

Green indicates reliable and verified data; Yellow indicates sufficient info with key gaps; Red indicates insufficient data to make an assessment.

Do I need to run other skills before this one?

Ideally, yes. This skill is designed to follow Step 2 of the framework. You should have a list of approved drivers from the '/head:identify-drivers' skill first.

분석 및 모니터링

Defines measurable indicators and confidence levels for strategic drivers using Philip Mudd’s HEAD intelligence framework.

This skill implements the third step of the HEAD framework, a structured analytic technique designed to transition from abstract drivers to concrete, observable data points. It enables users to propose 2–3 specific metrics for every strategic driver and assess the reliability of available information using a Green/Yellow/Red confidence system. By automating the creation of metrics tables and identifying critical blind spots where data is missing, this skill ensures that project decisions are based on evidence rather than assumption, fostering higher levels of intellectual honesty and analytical rigor within the Claude Code environment.
