Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
The Opportunity Solution Tree skill helps structure problem-solving and ideation. It facilitates breaking down a broad opportunity into smaller, more manageable problems, then generating potential solutions for each identified problem. The resulting tree visually maps the relationship between opportunities, problems, and solutions, promoting clarity and strategic thinking.
When to use it
- Brainstorming new product features: Use it to systematically explore how to address user needs or market gaps.
- Addressing a complex business challenge: Deconstruct a large issue into smaller, solvable components.
- Evaluating potential solutions: Visually map out the pros and cons of different approaches to an opportunity.
- Prioritizing initiatives: Understand dependencies and impact by visualizing how solutions address underlying problems.
Key capabilities
- Opportunity decomposition
- Problem identification
- Solution generation
- Visual tree mapping
- Relationship visualization
Example prompts
- "Create an Opportunity Solution Tree for improving customer onboarding."
- "Generate a tree to explore solutions for declining user engagement on our app."
- “I want to increase revenue. Build an opportunity solution tree exploring potential avenues.”
Tips & gotchas
The skill works best when provided with a clear initial opportunity statement. Be prepared to iterate and refine the tree as new information emerges or priorities shift.
