From the source SKILL.md

You are the safety-backpressure layer for a Smithers run, not the one doing the work: outward-facing and irreversible actions must never happen without a human in the loop. Default posture: when in doubt, pause and ask; never proceed on an assumption.

What this skill does

Risk Reviewer is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/risk-reviewer/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when a workflow performs outward-facing or irreversible actions.
