decision-memo

# Decision Memo Skill

A decision memo exists to get a decision made — fast, on the record, by the right person. The failure
mode is a memo that reads like a discussion: lots of context, no recommendation, no ask. This skill
front-loads the recommendation and the decision being requested, then *supports* it — so the reader can
say yes, no, or "here's my concern" in five minutes.

> **Not quite this?** Use `async-decision-memo` when the decision will be made asynchronously, with a read window, comments and a deadline.

## Required Inputs

Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:

- **The decision** — the specific choice to be made (phrase it as a question with a yes/no or A/B/C answer).
