yield-offer-sanity-check
A checklist skill that evaluates whether a yield, staking, or earn offer is reasonable or suspicious.
Workflow
- Take the yield offer details: platform, APY, token, lock period, and conditions.
- Run a sanity check: compare APY to risk-free rate, flag inconsistency.
- Check for red flags: guaranteed returns, complex mechanics hidden behind jargon, token inflation to pay yield.
- Assess the protocol's track record, team, and audit status.
- 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.
