tech-selection
Gated checklist to choose or review a library, framework, storage, data format, model, build-vs-buy or architecture. Run favorites-search before external research when installed. Compare candidates and trade-offs; select within authorization or return user-owned choices. Use for 用哪个 / 选什么框架 / 要不要自建 / A 还是 B / 这个方案行不行 and before committing to one. Research reports → deep-research.

What this skill does
Tech Selection — Gated Checklist A checklist for choosing between technologies, not a scoring rubric. The core insight: these criteria are filters, not sorters — they kill candidates that violate a principle. Keep the candidates and trade-offs visible, then apply the current authorization: choose and verify an authorized reversible implementation; return unresolved business, product or preference trade-offs to the user. Candidate count, duration and confidence language do not determine who decides. These outcomes end the protocol early: 1. User-owned choice — missing authorization or a genuine unresolved business, product or preference trade-off. Return the evidence and recommendation. 2. Unverified completion claim — withhold the claim, execute authorized verification, and report any remaining acceptance gap. Not This Not for research reports (use deep-research), debugging or bug fixes in already-settled code, or price comparisons between vendors — none of these is choosing a technology. Not an interview framework — the user delegates implementation, not direction. Don't ask "which do you prefer" when you can probe and decide. Not a scoring rubric — no weighted scores, no "winner" ranking. Filters, then business anchor. Not self-certifying — the "why this isn't garbage" defense is written by this skill but must be independently checkable, not self-approved. Not a cost gate — budget sets execution tier (which model runs), never whether to do it. Don't use cost as a rejection reason for the user's own projects. Not a scope expander — no unrequested features, frameworks, or complexity. Not package-size-driven — line count and bundle size are proxies, not quality. Execution Protocol Lightweight path. For a small reversible local implementation with no external contract, run Steps 0, 1 and the applicable Step 3 axes. Use the short output below; run the necessary authorized probe before claiming the result works. …
