Confidence Check Skills

Checked
kimasplund·vlatest·other·MIT

This skill assesses the plausibility of your statements by cross-referencing them with external knowledge, boosting accuracy and critical thinking.

Install on your platform

Showing Claude Code. One command installs this skill into any of the agents below.

  1. 1

    Run this in your project

    terminal
    $ npx skills add kimasplund/claude_cognitive_reasoning --skill confidence-check-skills -a claude-code
  2. Uses the open-source skills CLI and needs Node.js. Add -g to install it for your user instead of this project.

Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned kimasplund/claude_cognitive_reasoning at 2929d8bcdd.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

Scanned
3 files, 2,347 lines
This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows an AI agent to evaluate its own responses and identify potential inaccuracies or areas of uncertainty. It provides a confidence score for generated text, enabling the agent to flag low-confidence outputs for review or refinement. The skill aims to improve the reliability and trustworthiness of AI-generated content by incorporating self-assessment capabilities.

When to use it

  • Generating technical documentation: Assess the accuracy of explanations before publishing them.
  • Answering complex questions: Identify responses where more research might be needed.
  • Drafting creative writing: Gauge the agent's certainty about plot points or character motivations.
  • Summarizing lengthy texts: Evaluate the confidence in key takeaways and potential misinterpretations.

Key capabilities

  • Confidence score generation for text outputs.
  • Identification of potentially inaccurate information.
  • Flagging low-confidence responses.

Example prompts

  • "Generate a summary of this article, and provide a confidence score."
  • "Explain the concept of 'quantum entanglement' and tell me how sure you are about your explanation."
  • "Write a short story about a talking cat, but flag any parts where you’re unsure of the details."

Tips & gotchas

The skill relies on Claude Cognitive Reasoning. Results may vary depending on the complexity of the prompt and the agent's underlying knowledge base.
