Add falsify as an Agent Skill

falsify is the scientific thinking protocol for AI agents — axioms → hypothesis → adversarial test → evidence → calibrated verdict. It stops agents from giving confident answers they cannot falsify.

What it does

  • Forces a falsification-first reasoning loop: before any verdict, the agent must write down what would prove it wrong
  • Ships a bias catalog (cognitive biases agents fall into), mental models (Galef, Snowden, Boyd, Kahneman), and a thinking ledger template for transparent reasoning trails
  • Works with 20+ agents (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, ...) as a single Markdown skill
  • Also on npm: npx falsify-skill (automatically installs into Codex/Claude skill directories)

Quality

  • npm run skill:validate ✅ — all 415 skills valid (including this one)
  • npm run build ✅ — README table regenerated
  • 28 evaluation cases + 4/4 external dogfood cross-validation passed
  • MIT license

This is a high-signal addition: no existing skill in this collection covers scientific falsification / hypothesis testing as a general agent reasoning discipline.
