No risk disclosed

risk-disclosurechaff testJapanese / English

A proposal that gives only the upside and no risk (read by an AI)

Example

Flagged

Moving to the new accounting system closes the month three days sooner. It also cuts costs by 20,000 dollars a year.

What chaff prints

No machine decides this one. npx chaffjs test has an AI read the passage.

Fixed

Moving to the new accounting system closes the month three days sooner. It also cuts costs by 20,000 dollars a year. In the month we switch, however, finance will run both systems side by side and work longer hours.

How to fix

Add a section naming the risks.

Why it matters

A reader cannot decide from the upside alone.

What it does not flag

No machine decides this. chaff test has an AI read the document for any mention of a risk.

Silence this one spot (in the document)

Relax it for the team (the reason is kept as a comment in chaff.yaml)
