What it does
Career is an agent skill from menkesu/awesome-pm-skills. Turns a career question into a decision brief the PM can act on this week - a career plan, a promotion case, a stay-or-leave verdict, a job-search system, or an offer-negotiation script. Use when someone says 'how do I get promoted', 'should I leave my job', 'job search', 'I got laid off', 'negotiate my offer', 'career plan', 'IC or manager', 'next role', 'am I stuck', 'how do I stay relevant with AI' or 'how do I break into PM'. Draws on 188 Lenny's Podcast guests including Phyl Terry, Nikhyl Singhal and Deb Liu.
Its SKILL.md is about 5.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `references/frameworks.md` and `references/quotes.md`).
It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Job search and resumes and Podcasting. The repository describes itself as: Product management workflows grounded in Lenny's Podcast, for Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor.
When your agent uses it
- Someone says how do I get promoted
- Should I leave my job
- Negotiate my offer
- How do I stay relevant with AI
Example prompts
- “how do I get promoted”
- “should I leave my job”
- “job search”
- “/career”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Diagnose (ask before answering)
- Pick the play
- Run it
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c1b6e2d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Career loads about 5.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~11k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 132 tokens; SKILL.md has 3,312 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 3,312 words (~5,448 tokens).
“Diagnose which career decision you are really facing, run the matching play, and leave with a one-page decision brief plus scripts you can send today. Built from 745 insights from 188 Lenny's Podcast guests. Lead team: Phyl Terry, Nikhyl Singhal…”

What does Career need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Career is instructions for the agent only.

How many tokens does Career use?
About 5.4k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 22k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 5.9k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
