## Usage

1. Detect which workflow applies based on user's task
2. Announce: "I'm using the career skill for [workflow]"
3. Load the appropriate reference file
4. Execute the workflow exactly as written

## Rules

- Use Ask tool to gather input before proceeding
- Be direct and honest—career growth requires uncomfortable feedback
- Focus on actionable improvements, not encouragement
- Ground recommendations in evidence from user responses
- Use story points for effort estimates, never time

## Quality Footer (Required for Assessments)

All assessment, simulation, and stakeholder navigation outputs MUST end with:

```
---
| Confidence | X-Y% |
| Key Assumption | [What would change this assessment] |
| Reversibility | Type 2A/2B/1 |
```

**Evidence requirements:**
- Assessments must cite specific user responses
- Simulations must ground feedback in observable patterns
- Stakeholder analysis must distinguish [FACT] from [INFERENCE]
