What it does

Regulatory Impact Analysis is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Produce a regulatory impact analysis (RIA) weighing the costs, benefits, and alternatives of a proposed rule. Use when asked to assess a regulation's impact, do a cost-benefit analysis of a policy, justify a rulemaking, or compare regulatory options. Produces a structured RIA: the problem and rationale, options including the baseline, costs vs. benefits, distributional effects, and a reasoned recommendation.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to assess a regulations impact
  • Do a cost-benefit analysis of a policy
  • Justify a rulemaking
  • Compare regulatory options

Example prompts

  • “/regulatory-impact-analysis”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Regulatory Impact Analysis loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 110 tokens; SKILL.md has 457 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~110
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Produce a regulatory impact analysis (RIA) weighing the costs, benefits, and alternatives of a proposed rule. Use when asked to assess a regulation's impact, do a cost-benefit analysis of a policy, justify a rulemaking, or compare regulatory options. Produces a structured RIA: the problem and rationale, options including the baseline, costs vs. benefits, distributional effects, and a reasoned recommendation.

Regulatory Impact Analysis Skill

Before a rule is made, good practice (and often law) requires showing it's justified: what problem it solves, what it costs, what it delivers, and whether a lighter option would do better. This skill produces a structured RIA — honest about uncertainty, comparing real alternatives against the do-nothing baseline.

Educational analytical aid. A formal RIA must follow the jurisdiction's guidance (e.g. US OMB Circular A-4, UK Better Regulation Framework) and use validated data — treat this as a rigorous first draft, not an official filing.

Required Inputs

Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:

  • The proposed rule & problem — what's proposed and the market failure / risk / harm it addresses.
  • Options — the realistic alternatives (including status quo / non-regulatory approaches), or ask the skill to develop them.
  • Impacts & data — expected costs (compliance, admin, indirect) and benefits (safety, health, efficiency), who bears them, any figures available.
  • Timeframe & discounting — the horizon and any required discount rate.

Output Format

Regulatory Impact Analysis: [rule]

1. Problem statement & rationale — the specific problem (market failure, externality, risk) and why intervention is needed now. If there's no clear problem, say so.

2. Objectives — what success looks like, in measurable terms.

3. Options considered — including the baseline (do nothing) and non-regulatory alternatives. Describe each.

4. Costs & benefits by option — for each option, the expected costs and benefits (quantified where possible; qualitative where not), over the timeframe. A comparison table:

OptionKey costsKey benefitsNet assessment

State assumptions, data sources, and uncertainty honestly (ranges, sensitivity).

5. Distributional effects — who gains and who bears the costs (small business, regions, groups); any equity concerns.

6. Recommendation — the preferred option and why it's proportionate — the best net benefit for the burden imposed.

7. Implementation & review — enforcement, compliance burden, and how/when the rule's effect will be evaluated (sunset/review clause).

Quality Checks

  • The problem/market-failure is clearly established before any option is recommended
  • Options include the do-nothing baseline and at least one non-regulatory or lighter alternative
  • Costs and benefits are compared per option, quantified where data allows, with sources
  • Uncertainty is stated honestly (ranges/sensitivity), not hidden behind point estimates
  • Distributional effects and a proportionality-based recommendation are included
  • A review/evaluation mechanism is specified

Anti-Patterns

  • Do not assume regulation is the answer — establish the problem and test the baseline first
  • Do not present only the preferred option — compare real alternatives
  • Do not fabricate precise numbers — use ranges and label assumptions where data is thin
  • Do not ignore who bears the cost — distributional/small-business impact matters
  • Do not omit proportionality — the benefit must justify the burden imposed

Based On

Regulatory impact analysis practice (OMB Circular A-4 / Better Regulation): problem-first, options vs. baseline, cost-benefit, proportionality.

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Assess a regulation's impact."
  • "Do a cost-benefit analysis of a policy?"
  • "Justify a rulemaking."
  • "Compare regulatory options."
