yield-offer-sanity-check

A checklist skill that evaluates whether a yield, staking, or earn offer is reasonable or suspicious.

Workflow

1. Take the yield offer details: platform, APY, token, lock period, and conditions.
2. Run a sanity check: compare APY to risk-free rate, flag inconsistency.
3. Check for red flags: guaranteed returns, complex mechanics hidden behind jargon, token inflation to pay yield.
4. Assess the protocol's track record, team, and audit status.
5. Give a verdict: reasonable, suspicious, or needs more information.

Output Format

• Offer summary
• Sanity check verdict
• Red flags found
• What makes sense and what does not
• Recommended next step

Quality Bar

• Uses math and evidence, not vague skepticism.
• Distinguishes between high APY due to inflation versus real yield.
• Does not declare any platform safe, only flags clear warning signs.

Edge Cases

• New protocols with no track record should be flagged even if the offer looks clean.
• If the user does not share the token name or platform, say what is unknown.

Compatibility

• Prompt-only, no on-chain data required.
• Best with specific offer details typed or pasted by the user.
