sanitycheck

The sanitycheck skill prompts Claude to evaluate a project's current state by systematically addressing nine key questions about understanding, purpose, approach, progress, and completion criteria. Use this when you need a structured reality check on whether a project remains on track, when stakeholders need alignment on goals and status, or when progress feels unclear and you want candid assessment of what's working and what needs adjustment.
