What it does
First Hire Plan is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Plan your first hire — whether to hire at all yet, contractor vs employee, what role to hire, and how to do it right when you've never hired before. Use when asked to help me make my first hire, should I hire someone, contractor or employee, or how do I hire for my small business. Produces a readiness and role read (what to hand off first), a contractor-vs-employee decision for your situation, a lightweight hiring process (role definition, sourcing, a fair evaluation, an offer), the obligations to be aware of…
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Business, Finance & HR. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Asked to help me make my first hire
- Should I hire someone
- How do I hire for my small business
Example prompts
- “/first-hire-plan”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

- Run a simple, fair process. Source candidates, evaluate on relevant signals (a small work sample beats gut feel), and make a clear offer.
- Know the obligations. A first hire can trigger payroll, tax withholding, insurance, and legal duties — flag these to set up correctly…
- Onboard deliberately. Set expectations, tools, and early wins so the hire actually reduces your load.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. 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.
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
First Hire Plan loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 158 tokens; SKILL.md has 596 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.

- description
- Plan your first hire — whether to hire at all yet, contractor vs employee, what role to hire, and how to do it right when you've never hired before. Use when asked to help me make my first hire, should I hire someone, contractor or employee, or how do I hire for my small business. Produces a readiness and role read (what to hand off first), a contractor-vs-employee decision for your situation, a lightweight hiring process (role definition, sourcing, a fair evaluation, an offer), the obligations to be aware of, and onboarding basics — flagging that employment/tax/legal rules are local. Not legal or tax advice.
First-Hire Plan
Your first hire is a big, nervy step — get the role wrong or the classification wrong and it's costly. This helps you decide whether you're ready, what to hand off first, and whether a contractor or employee fits — then gives a simple, fair hiring process for someone who's never done it, plus the obligations to know about. It flags that employment, tax, and legal rules are local and this isn't legal advice.
What This Skill Produces
- A readiness & role read — whether now's the time, and which work to offload first (the highest-leverage or most-draining tasks)
- Contractor vs. employee — the trade-offs for your situation (cost, control, commitment, classification rules) and a recommendation
- A lightweight hiring process — defining the role, sourcing candidates, a fair and simple evaluation, and making an offer
- Obligations awareness — the tax, payroll, insurance, and legal responsibilities a first hire triggers (flagged to verify locally)
- Onboarding basics — setting the person up to succeed in the first weeks
- A boundary — employment/tax/legal specifics are local; consult a professional
Required Inputs
Ask for these if not provided:
- The business — what you do, size, and where you're stretched
- The need — what work you'd hand off, and how much of it
- Budget & commitment — what you can afford, and how steady the need is
- Contractor or employee leaning — any preference or constraint
- Location — for the (varying) employment/tax obligations
Framework: Right Time, Right Role, Right Classification
- Check readiness and pick the role. Confirm the workload and budget justify a hire, then define the highest-leverage thing to hand off first — don't hire a vague "help."
- Decide contractor vs. employee honestly. Weigh cost, control, commitment, and — critically — classification rules (misclassifying an employee as a contractor is a real risk). Recommend the fit.
- Define the role clearly. A concrete role description (responsibilities, must-haves, success in 90 days) makes sourcing and evaluation fair and effective.
- Run a simple, fair process. Source candidates, evaluate on relevant signals (a small work sample beats gut feel), and make a clear offer.
- Know the obligations. A first hire can trigger payroll, tax withholding, insurance, and legal duties — flag these to set up correctly, verified locally.
- Onboard deliberately. Set expectations, tools, and early wins so the hire actually reduces your load.

Output Format
First hire: [business] · handing off [x] · budget [y] · [location]
Ready & role: [is now the time] → hire for [highest-leverage handoff first]. Contractor vs employee: [trade-offs for you] → recommend [x]; watch classification rules. Hire process: define role ([responsibilities · must-haves · 90-day success]) → source → evaluate (small work sample) → offer. Obligations (verify locally): [payroll · tax · insurance · legal duties]. Onboarding: [expectations · tools · early wins].
Not legal or tax advice. Employment, tax, and classification rules vary by location — set up correctly with a local professional.
Quality Checks
- Confirms readiness and defines a specific first role
- Gives an honest contractor-vs-employee recommendation incl. classification risk
- Provides a simple, fair hiring process with a work sample
- Flags the obligations a first hire triggers (verify locally)
- Covers onboarding basics
- States employment/tax rules are local / not legal advice
Anti-Patterns
- Hiring a vague "helper" with no defined role.
- Misclassifying an employee as a contractor to cut cost.
- Gut-feel hiring with no work sample or clear criteria.
- Ignoring payroll/tax/legal obligations.
- No onboarding — the hire flounders and doesn't reduce load.
Example Trigger Phrases
- "I'm ready to make my first hire — where do I start?"
- "Should I hire a contractor or an employee?"
- "What should I hire for first in my small business?"
- "How do I hire someone when I've never done it before?"
- "What obligations do I take on when I hire my first employee?"
