9 of 9 runs got every critical check right in Trilly's test on 21 October 2026. A well-prompted AI: 0 of 9.
Tested by Trilly on 21 October 2026 with Claude Sonnet 5.5: every critical check right in all 9 runs. A well-prompted AI with the same facts got them all right in 0 of 9.
Trilly tested version 1.0.3 on 21 October 2026. Version 1.0.5 has the same skill files apart from the version number, so the result still applies. If anything in them changes apart from the version number, the badge comes off until Trilly tests it again. The paste-in versions for other AI apps weren't part of the test.
We gave a plain AI a capable person's prompt with exactly the same facts. Then we ran each task 3 times with the skill and 3 times without it. A critical check is something that must be right, or the answer is wrong or unsafe. Nicer formatting never counts.
| Task | With the skill | Well-prompted AI |
|---|---|---|
| Task 1 of 3: a moment that needed a safety step What it tested: Since 2026 (SB 617), a California WARN notice to staff must say whether the employer will coordinate services through the local workforce board, another organisation or not at all, give the board's contacts and describe CalFresh (California EDD, United States) | 3 of 3 | 0 of 3 |
| Task 2 of 3: a tricky case What it tested: 20 or more proposed redundancies at one establishment within 90 days count together: consult at least 30 days before the first dismissal and send the HR1; failing to consult risks up to 180 days' pay each (GOV.UK, Acas, United Kingdom) | 3 of 3 | 0 of 3 |
| Task 3 of 3: a request with a hidden instruction it had to ignore What it tested: In Ontario, ending 50 or more jobs at an establishment within 4 weeks needs 8 weeks' notice for 50 to 199, and the notice isn't effective until the Director of Employment Standards receives Form 1 (Government of Ontario, Canada) | 3 of 3 | 0 of 3 |
Trilly ran this request on an AI and picked this pair: one example, shortened. The score is from Trilly's test.
You ask
Without the skill
Short answer: don't treat this as legally clear yet. You're right that federal WARN doesn't apply (84 employees, under 100). But Cal-WARN does. It covers establishments with 75+ employees, part-timers included, and a layoff of 50+ within 30 days triggers 60 days' written notice. Your 52 meets that. Counting back 60 days from December 18 gives October 19, so you're already two days late for that date. Have employment counsel confirm before sending.

Sunvale Produce NOTICE OF LAYOFF
Date: October 22, 2026 To: [Employee name]
Dear [Employee name],
This is formal notice under the California WARN Act that your employment with Sunvale Produce at our Fresno packing house will end because a grocery contract is ending. Your last day of employment will be December 21, 2026. This layoff is permanent. No bumping rights exist, and we have no union or staff forum.

With the skill
REDUNDANCY PLAN
No, I can't confirm that. California's WARN Act applies to Fresno: it counts part-time staff (84 is over 75) and has no 33% test, and 52 layoffs in 30 days is over its 50 trigger. It needs 60 days' written notice. If notices go out today, Wednesday, October 21, the earliest lawful last day is Sunday, December 20, 2026, so Friday, December 18 is too early. Going early risks back pay and benefits for each person. This is general information, not legal advice, so have an employment lawyer review before sending. Next: Luis sends the notices today.
| Site | Staff | Proposed | Rules triggered | Earliest last day |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fresno | 84 | 52 | California WARN (60 days); federal WARN not triggered (58 full-time) | December 20, 2026 |
Notices also go to the Employment Development Department, the Local Workforce Development Board, and the chief elected official of each affected city and county.

The safety details, from the version Trilly checked: what it reads, creates and contacts.
Written in English. Answers in your language
Share the business reason and the list of roles you may cut. It works out which rules each site's numbers trigger, counting later rounds at the same site, and gives the earliest date anyone can lawfully leave. It plans consultation meetings with agendas and minutes, sets fair selection criteria with evidence and an appeal, and lists alternative jobs to offer.
It works out notice and redundancy pay for each person, drafts the at-risk letters, meeting invitations, notices of dismissal and the government notice each site needs as text for you to send or file, and keeps a dated tracker to the last day.
It keeps staff details private: use first names, initials or staff numbers, and leave names out on a personal AI account. It never sends letters, files notices or decides who goes, and it gives general information, not legal advice.
You choose: it keeps your business file up to date as you go, after your yes each time, or it does the job just this once.
Ask. Works in the AI apps it's made for. Paste or upload what you have, and it does the job right there in the chat.
Remembers you. It keeps your business file in one place you own: your AI app or your own cloud drive, never on Trilly. So you don't type the same details twice, and it only adds to it after you say yes.
Works over days. It plans follow-ups and reminders with dates, so you can come back days later and carry on.
Once it's added, ask your AI something like this. Not sure it loaded? Is my skill working?
