• Questions like "what does this actually mean?"
• Marketing copy review
• Pitch deck analysis
• Documentation audit for honesty
• "Is this real or just hype?"

What This Skill Does

3. Follow the Money - Who actually benefits?
4. The Quiet Part - What would we never put on the landing page?
5. Contradiction Detector - Where's the hypocrisy?
6. Absurdity Check - What's fundamentally ridiculous here?
7. Performance vs Reality - What's theater vs substance?
8. Outsider Perspective - What would confuse a total stranger?
9. Meaningless Rules - What cargo cult behavior exists?
10. Embarrassment Test - What would embarrass us if known?
11. Hypocrisy Audit - How do actions contradict stated values?
