🧠 PM Skills — 1176 Professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, Codex & Hermes

Quick start · Playground · All skills · Packs · Install guide · Changelog · Roadmap

Your landlord kept your deposit. Your mom got a medical bill that makes no sense. You got laid off on a Tuesday. Someone you love died, and no one handed you the checklist.

Generic AI is a very confident intern. PM Skills is the senior colleague's notes — 1176 of them, one markdown file each, for the moments at work and in life where "it depends" is not an answer. (PM stands for Professional, not just Product Management. Yes, we get asked.)

PM Skills is an open-source library of 1176 Agent Skills — plain-markdown SKILL.md files that teach an AI assistant to do one professional task to a senior professional's standard, from writing a PRD to decoding a lease or running a blameless postmortem. Each skill bundles the framework, an output template, quality checks, and anti-patterns. It is MIT-licensed and works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, and Codex.

🧭 How it works

🚪 Pick a door — 30 seconds each

Nothing here can scare your setup. A skill is a markdown file your AI reads. No runtime, no telemetry, no accounts. Installing copies text files; uninstalling is deleting them. Skeptical? Good instinct — read one first, it's written for humans too.

✅ PM Skills is right for you if

• ✅ You keep retyping the same long prompt and get a different answer each time
• ✅ You want the finished document (a PRD, a demand letter, a postmortem), not an essay on how to write one
• ✅ You use more than one assistant and want the same skills in all of them
• ✅ You want to read exactly what your assistant was told before you trust the result
• ✅ You are dealing with something outside your field: a lease, a medical bill, a layoff
• ✅ You want nothing to host, no account, and no telemetry unless you switch it on

🥊 Without a skill vs. with one

📚 The skills

Every skill follows the same discipline: what it produces, the inputs it needs, a real framework (severity scales, decision rules, not vibes), a concrete output template, quality checks, and anti-patterns. All 1176 pass the SkillSpec L3 gate and a security audit in CI.

Meta

Before installing anyone's skills (including these): skill-vetting — a security read for SKILL.md files. The library's own standard lives in SKILLSPEC.md; every skill's level is enforced in CI.

🔍 What does a skill look like?

A skill is a single markdown file with a name, a description that tells the assistant when to activate it, and a body containing the working framework: required inputs, decision rules or severity scales, a concrete output template, quality checks, and anti-patterns. The assistant reads it and gains the judgment; humans can read, audit, and edit the same file. No runtime, no lock-in.

---
name: lease-decoder
description: "Decode a residential lease into plain English and rank the
  clauses that can hurt you. Use when someone asks 'what am I signing'…"
---
## Framework: Severity Scale
- 🔴 Can cost you real money — auto-renewal into a full new term, break
  penalties beyond re-rental costs, deposit conditions written to fail…

That's the whole trick. It's markdown. Your agent reads it and gains the judgment; you can audit it, edit it, or write your own.

🚫 What PM Skills is not

❓ Straight answers

🗺️ Roadmap

• ✅ Exports to 12 platforms and one install command
• ✅ MCP server, subagents and slash commands
• ✅ Quality gates in CI: structure, security, duplicates, drift
• ✅ The decision layer and the promote loop
• ✅ The design taste pipeline
• ⚪ Published eval scores for more skills
• ⚪ A promotion round for the Production-Ready tier
• ⚪ Merging the near-duplicate skills still marked as pending
• ⚪ Translated skill descriptions, done at scale or retired

Direction, not a contract. Details and good first issues: ROADMAP.md.

🔒 Privacy and telemetry

Off by default. A skill is a text file and sends nothing.

The full statement, including the handler you can read: docs/TELEMETRY.md and SECURITY.md.

🤝 Contributing

Add a skill via PR (the standard, CONTRIBUTING), request one via issue, or publish your own repo to the community index. Translations follow skills-i18n/.

❤️ Support

If a skill saved you real money or a real mistake, star the repo — it's how others find it. Sponsors fund the playground's free runs and get naming rights, not influence: become a sponsor. Organisations: a clearly-disclosed logo and link only, never product integration — email me.
