Apply the principle of avoiding the Scaling Fallacy — the assumption that a system that works at one scale will work at a different (smaller or larger) scale. Use when scaling a feature from prototype to production, designing for an unfamiliar user volume, evaluating whether a process that works for 10 users will work for 10,000, or planning a launch in a much larger market. Two distinct kinds: load assumptions (will it handle the volume?) and interaction assumptions (will users behave the same…

What this skill can do

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'scaling-fallacy' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'scaling-fallacy' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named scaling-fallacy already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '3e1e6b20ffc28f42923e391f29f075c424e19e64' -- 'plugins/HDeibler/universal-design-principles/plugins/process-and-robustness-principles/skills/scaling-fallacy' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/HDeibler/universal-design-principles/plugins/process-and-robustness-principles/skills/scaling-fallacy' ~/.agents/skills/'scaling-fallacy' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'scaling-fallacy' ~/.claude/skills/'scaling-fallacy' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
