# Gabe Assess — Change Impact Assessment Skill
## Gabe execution contract (E1–E7)
This skill runs under the suite execution contract — E1 EVIDENCE · E2 RUN-BEFORE-✅ · E3 NO SILENT DOWNGRADE · E4 REUSE FIRST · E5 STATE SYNC · E6 MISSING ANCHOR = STOP · E7 REPORT WHERE — floors, not ceilings; a skill's own gate may be stricter, never looser. Full text: `../gabe-docs/references/execution-contract.md` (if that file is missing, E6 applies — STOP).
## What this does
Pause before an "obvious yes" and take a photograph of what a proposed change actually means — blast radius, maturity-appropriate scope, prerequisites, and alternatives — before agreeing to it. This is NOT a code review (use gabe-roast); it's the moment between "should we do X?" and "yes," the triage instinct that asks what you're actually signing up for. Use when about to reflexively say yes to a suggested fix, detour, or scope addition; skip for trivially-scoped changes (rename, typo) or when you've already assessed and are now implementing.
## Boundary check (absorbed from gabe-align, 2026-07-30)
The values + AP advisory check that lived in gabe-align now runs here as part of the assessment when the change is risky, irreversible, or lands at a commit/PR boundary: check the proposal against the project's stated values and the Architecture Principles (`templates/architecture-principles.md`, AP1–AP13, advisory citations only — never gates). Deep spec preserved at `../_archive/gabe-align/references/`.
