The plan failed: [rollback / data loss / no adoption / SLA breach].\" Explaining a happened failure is required; predicting one is not enough.\n2. **Generate failure reasons before filtering:** sweep technical, process, assumptions, dependencies/external, and people. Force a second pass: \"What did the plan most need to be true that was not?\" Collect breadth first (aim for many distinct reasons); do not rank mid-sweep.\n3. **Prioritize:** group by theme; score likelihood × impact; keep the top 3–5 concrete risks (drop generics that do not bind).\n4. **Failure-first reverse analysis (absorbed reverse path):** for each top risk, (a) restate the failed outcome in past tense, (b) list **necessary/enabling conditions** that had to be true for that failure, (c) **invert** each condition into a verifiable prevention requirement (avoid/require rule + check), (d) bind **owner, verification checkpoint, and ship/stage gate**.\n5. **Mitigate and update the plan:** for each top risk, attach mitigation steps, spike/contingency if needed, and the reverse-analysis prevention requirements as explicit plan gates. A pre-mortem with no plan change is incomplete.\n6. **Stop when** top risks each have a bound mitigation or prevention gate, or when further reasons are only generic restatements — then ship the updated plan, do not keep brainstorming.\n\n## Output\n\n1. **Failure scenario** — past-tense disaster frame with date and failed outcome.\n2. **Failure reasons** — unfiltered list, then prioritized top 3–5 with likelihood × impact.\n3. **Reverse paths** — for each top risk: necessary conditions → inverted prevention requirements.\n4. **Mitigations** — owner, verification checkpoint, ship/stage gate per top risk.\n5. **Plan deltas** — concrete tasks, spikes, contingencies, and gates added to the plan.\n\n## Verification\n\n- **Falsify/stop:** if no plan-specific failure path can be stated in past tense with necessary conditions, stop — you are generating theater, not risk. If a \"mitigation\" has no verification checkpoint, it is not done.\n- **Over-application guard:** do not pre-mortem reversible chores, mid-incident firefighting, or systems that already enforce the same paths. Do not leave abstract risks as \"mitigate later\"; either invert them into gates or drop them as non-actionable.\n","tagline":"Before committing to a plan or launch, assume it already failed and reason backward through concrete causes — convert failure paths into mitigations, gates, and stop checks.","category":"automation","tags":["agent-skill"],"author":"tjboudreaux","verified":false,"attribution":{"status":"registry_indexed","statusLabel":"Registry indexed","shortLabel":"REGISTRY INDEXED","sourceLabel":"github fast track","sourceDetail":"tjboudreaux/cc-thinking-skills","creatorName":"tjboudreaux","creatorUrl":"https://github.com/tjboudreaux","sourceUrl":"https://github.com/tjboudreaux/cc-thinking-skills/tree/main/skills/thinking-pre-mortem","indexedBy":"OpenAgentSkill community index","claimUrl":"https://www.openagentskill.com/skills/tjboudreaux-thinking-pre-mortem#claim-this-skill","claimCta":"Claim this skill","trustNote":"This listing was indexed from public sources and is not marked official until a maintainer claim is approved.","publicNote":"Attribution links to the public repository or creator profile.
