What is PM Skills?

PM Skills is an open-source library of 1117 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.

Decode a lease before you sign it. Write a PRD your team can execute. Simulate the promotion committee before the real one meets. Check the weather with zero API keys. Generic AI gives you filler; these give you the structure a senior professional actually uses.

Works natively in Claude Code and Hermes Agent, with ready-to-paste exports for ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, Codex and 8 more tools. (PM stands for Professional, not just Product Management.)

🐣 New here? Pick a door — each takes about 30 seconds

  1. Just looking → open the ▶ Playground and run a skill in your browser. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for.
  2. You use Claude Code → type /plugin, search pm-skills, install. Done — ask "decode this lease" and watch.
  3. You use anything else → npx pm-claude-skills add and pick your tool from the menu (Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, ChatGPT, Gemini…).
  4. Want the guided tour → browse the searchable catalogue site and subscribe to get an email whenever new skills launch.

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 designed to be read by humans too.

Don't know what to look for? Describe your task in plain words at 🔎 find"my landlord kept my deposit", "board meeting on Thursday" — and it names the skill.

Never miss a new skill. New ones drop regularly — subscribe to the newsletter and get a short email with a real example whenever they launch. No spam, unsubscribe anytime. Prefer no email? Follow via RSS or browse the newsletter archive.


🧠 Not just what to do — how to think

Most skills here answer "do this task." A new family answers "think differently about my life."

LLMs have one big weakness: they're too correct. On open-ended questions they give the safe, average, textbook answer — technically right and completely forgettable. Two new bundles fight that head-on (inspired by parallel-divergent-ideation research):

💭 pm-thinking — think better

Escape the generic answer and stress-test your own decisions:

🎯 pm-focus — get unstuck

ADHD-friendly executive function (useful for everyone):

✨ See it in action

It's not just a folder of files — the whole library is explorable, runnable, and a little bit magic. All of this runs in your browser, free, nothing to install:

Open the Playground to run any of the 1117 skills with your own key — or just browse them all.

💬 What can I ask it to do?

Anything below is a real ask that activates a real skill — say it in your own words, the description does the routing:

🏠 "decode this lease before I sign"lease-decoder 📋 "write the PRD for our referral feature"prd-template 🚨 "blameless postmortem for Friday's outage"incident-postmortem

📚 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 1117 pass the SkillSpec L3 gate and a security audit in CI.
