What it does

Evaluate Ideas is an agent skill from real-simple-labs/parker-brain. Rank the brand idea bank against the approved Phase-2 strategic roadmap. Grades the whole captured pile — which priority each idea serves, the lever it pulls, how strong the evidence is, whether it trips a roads-not-taken kill — and produces a ranked shortlist by priority that ends in a plain ranked call the sprint plan sizes into a round, plus a read of what the bank is starving for. The skeptical pass. Run after harvest-ideas (weekly), when the bank grows enough to change the rank, or when the roadmap is…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Product & Project Management, covering Sprint planning and agile.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Sprint planning and agile

Example prompts

  • “/evaluate-ideas”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Which priority does it serve, and for which persona. Organize the whole evaluation by the roadmap's ranked priorities, never by the order…
  2. Which lever does it pull — persona, product, messaging, or creator-and-talent (the four territories). Name the primary first, secondary…
  3. How strong is the evidence — confidence first, then speed. Confidence is how proven the message is; speed is how fast it can ship…
  4. Does it trip the roads-not-taken kill list. An idea pulling toward a deliberately deprioritized road is cut, not ranked — name the road…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 62c4f72. 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

Evaluate Ideas loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 135 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,080 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~135
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,080 words (~1,876 tokens).

“This produces idea-bank/evaluation-[YYYY-MM-DD].md: the ranked verdict on the bank. Capture keeps the doors open; this is the door closing to judge. You are a senior creative strategist sitting down to grade, not to browse and not yet to build. Lead…”
