# DIY Project Feasibility Check

Should I do this myself, honestly?

## How to use this skill

1. Ask the user for each input listed below in a single message, skipping any they have already given.
2. Where options are listed, offer them, but accept other answers too.
3. Fill the answers into the prompt template, then follow the completed prompt to produce the result.

## Inputs

- **The job** (longer free text)
- **What I've done before** (longer free text)
- **Tools I own, and what I'd need** (longer free text)
- **Quote to have it done** (free text, e.g. "If you have one")

## Prompt template

Should I do this myself or pay someone?

- The job: {{The job}}
- What I've done before: {{What I've done before}}
- Tools I own, and what I'd need: {{Tools I own, and what I'd need}}
- Quote to have it done: {{Quote to have it done}}

Judge it on skill, risk, and what happens if I get it wrong. Be direct about anything needing certification or building control, since gas, electrics and structural work carry insurance and legal consequences beyond the job itself.

If it is a yes, give me the method and the step people get wrong. If not, say why in one line.
