Use this skill when the user is trying to force deeper computation through repeated rollouts or "Prime Gauss" style recursive prompting. Preserve the useful part: repeated trials, prior memory, fresh information, and explicit marks. Remove the unsafe part: pretending the loop proves certainty.
Every rollout should record:
Prefer JSONL for append-only ledgers and Markdown for human summaries.
invalidates the previous mark.
Include a compact coherence mark:
textEnsemble matches prior winner: true Recursive matches prior winner: false Latest rollout match: true Live promotion allowed: false Reason: replay and freshness gates not satisfied
For trading, capital allocation, production deploys, migrations, or destructive ops, recursive confidence is not approval.
Default to paper, dry-run, read-only, preview, or staged mode unless the user explicitly approves the live action and the repo/service gate supports it.
Promote only when:
Lead with the decision, not the drama:
textRollout 15 complete. The prior winner still holds, but edge deteriorated 17%. Status: watch, not live. Next gate: 20 replay fills with fresh orderbook age below threshold.

DecimalAI ran this skill against gemini-3.6-flash twice over the same eval suite — once with the skill loaded and once without — and compared the two runs case by case. 23 cases were attempted. The headline lift of +57 percentage points is the difference between those two pass rates over the 23 comparable cases.
The per-case answers from this run were removed by the retention sweep, so the case table below shows the verdicts without the text either arm produced. The counts above were recorded at the time and are unaffected. Answers are now kept for 180 days.
