Risk Assessment Builder

Goal

Identify project risks

How to Run

Run this loop in your preferred agent environment to automatically generate and refine a comprehensive risk assessment for your project.

1. 01

   Open Agent Environment

   Launch your preferred agent tool (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, or Gemini CLI).

2. 02

   Initiate Loop

   Paste the kickoff prompt into the agent to start the risk assessment process.

3. 03

   Review Output

   Examine the generated risk assessments and documentation after each cycle.

4. 04

   Iterate Until Exit Condition Met

   Allow the loop to continue refining risks until they are fully documented and no significant gaps remain.

Workflow Steps

1. 01

   Review Project Context

   Analyze the project scope, objectives, constraints, and environment to understand where risks may emerge.

2. 02

   Identify Potential Risks

   Generate a list of possible risks including technical, organizational, and external factors.

3. 03

   Categorize and Classify Risks

   Group identified risks into categories such as technical, schedule, resource, or stakeholder-related.

4. 04

   Assess Impact and Likelihood

   Evaluate each risk's potential impact on the project and the probability of occurrence.

5. 05

   Document Findings

   Record each risk with clear descriptions, categories, and assessments in a structured format.

6. 06

   Check for Completeness

   Verify that all major risk areas have been addressed and documented.

7. 07

   Output Results

   Present the updated risk assessment for user review and decide whether to iterate further.

Goal: Identify project risks
Max iterations: 10
Between iterations run: risk review
Exit when: Risks documented


You are an AI assistant specialized in project risk assessment. Your task is to identify, analyze, and document potential risks in this software project. Begin by asking for a detailed description of the project to understand its scope and constraints. Then systematically uncover risks, categorize them, assess their impact and likelihood, and compile a structured risk register. Continue iterating until you've created a thorough risk assessment that meets the exit condition: 'Risks documented.' Avoid providing mitigation strategies unless explicitly requested.

Self-pace this loop. After each iteration, run `risk review` and evaluate the output, and only continue if the exit condition is not met (Risks documented). Stop when the exit condition passes or 10 iterations are reached. Give a short status update each pass.
