| name | probabilistic-decision-core |
| description | Operational probability, calibration, and expected-value discipline for YURI OS decisions under uncertainty. Use when making or supporting a decision involving task priority, route selection, risk acceptance, opportunity ranking, forecast-backed planning, resource allocation, go/no-go judgment, escalation threshold, or postmortem calibration — e.g. '/yuri probability', '/probability', or '/pdc'. |

Probabilistic Decision Core Skill
When to use
Use this skill when Yuri OS / YURI must make or support an operational decision under uncertainty:
- task priority
- route selection
- risk acceptance
- opportunity ranking
- forecast-backed planning
- resource allocation
- go / no-go judgment
- escalation threshold
- postmortem calibration
Also use it when the active task matches this operating principle:
Separate forecast, goal, plan, confidence, and cost of error before action. Update the estimate when evidence changes. Calibrate against outcomes after the decision resolves.
When not to use
Do not use this skill when:
- the task is deterministic and local evidence fully decides it
- the decision is identity-level, relationship-critical, or owner-only
- the only available estimate would be fake precision
- the action is high or critical risk and lacks owner approval
- the outcome cannot be observed later enough to calibrate
Operating doctrine
- Forecasts are not goals.
- Probability is a decision input, not a permission slip.
- Base rates come before local signals.
- Local signals must name direction and strength.
- Confidence describes evidence quality, not emotional certainty.
- Expected value must include cost of being wrong.
- High-impact irreversible actions require guard routing even when probability is favorable.
- Forecasts must be logged when the outcome can later be checked.
