SKILL
keep-the-judgment✓ APPROVED

Keep reps making the calls that matter.

Marks the points where a rep owns the judgment, who to pursue, the relationship, the message, and gives the workflow an owner and a weekly check so it lasts.

In plain English: “Where do reps stay in control?

Inside: The points a rep controls, the owner handoff, and the review rhythm that keeps it running.

01 / HOW TO USE

Install it in one line, or paste it in.

1
In Claude Code (one command)
Copy the install line, paste it into your terminal, and restart Claude Code. The skill installs itself to ~/.claude/skills/ and runs automatically when it is relevant.
2
In Claude, ChatGPT, or a Project (no terminal)
Open the file, then upload it to your chat or paste its contents in. A skill is just a markdown file of instructions, so any capable AI can follow it.
New to skills? A skill is a plain-text file that teaches your AI a workflow. Point any capable assistant at it and it follows the steps, on your data.
02 / MAKE IT YOURS

Connect your context. Set it to your motion.

03 / THE FULL SKILL

Everything the skill does, in full.

WHAT THIS DOES

Hands the redesigned workflow to a human who owns it, with the four threads that keep it from falling apart. Cutting the drag is not the finish line. A workflow with no owner and no rhythm tears again in a month.

THE METHOD
  1. 1
    1. Name the human judgment. The calls in this workflow that need context, judgment, or the relationship. That is what the person keeps.
    1. Thread 1, context. Write the shared brain for this one workflow: the ICP, the rules, the definitions, the messaging. The human and the AI pull from the same source, or the AI guesses confidently.
    2. Thread 2, tooling. Stand up the one automation that runs the drag. One workflow, not the whole stack.
    3. Thread 3, ownership. Put one name on the workflow. They own the human judgment and the system's output. No orphan workflows.
    4. Thread 4, rhythm. Set the recurring review where the owner checks the output and fixes drift. On the calendar, weekly or biweekly. A standing review, not a Slack channel.
FAILURE POINTS
  • Cutting the drag and walking away. No owner means it tears again.
  • Keeping the judgment with a doc nobody keeps current. Context rots.
  • Reviewing in a Slack thread instead of a standing meeting. Drift wins.
THE RECEIPT

[one owner, one context doc, one running automation, one recurring review, on one workflow]

We just cut the drag on our lead-routing workflow. How do I make sure it doesn't fall apart in a month?
CLAUDE
Here's the handoff, the four threads named. Context doc: routing-rules.md (ICP, SLA timers, fallback logic) Tooling: one automation, the round-robin assignment Owner: RevOps lead, named, not "the team" Rhythm: biweekly review, calendar hold, not a Slack channel The failure mode this catches: you were about to keep the judgment in a Slack thread, which is exactly how drift wins. A standing review is the difference between an owner and an orphan. One sharpener: name the actual person for the rhythm review right now, before this doc goes stale waiting on a decision nobody's made.
NEXT MOVE

Repeat the loop on the next most expensive workflow. The Sales Operator. Receipts only.

04 / GO FURTHER

Where an operator takes this next.

The handoff is step one. Here is where an operator takes it once the manual version proves out.

You handed off the judgment once, now the system checks that it's still being kept.

01
Put the rhythm on the calendar for real

Use a scheduled Claude task to generate the biweekly review agenda from the last two weeks of routing exceptions, so the owner walks in with the drift already surfaced.

02
Catch context rot automatically

Flag the context doc in Slack if it hasn't been touched in 60 days, so nobody's running rules that quietly went stale.

03
Track ownership across every workflow you've cut

Log each workflow's owner and last-review date in a Notion or Airtable table, so "no orphan workflows" is a fact you can check, not a hope.

05 / PART OF A BIGGER PLAY

One skill is the on-ramp.
