What it does
Promotion Packet is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Build a promotion case that proves you're already operating at the next level. Use when asked to write a promo packet/case, prepare for a promotion committee, or make the case for a level-up or title change. Produces a promotion packet — the level-up thesis, evidence mapped to each next-level competency, scope/impact highlights, peer-quote slots, and the gaps to close before submitting.
Its SKILL.md is about 910 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 Education, covering Essays and academic help. 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 write a promo packet/case
- Prepare for a promotion committee
- Make the case for a level-up
Example prompts
- “/promotion-packet”
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
Promotion Packet loads about 909 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 102 tokens; SKILL.md has 453 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.

- promotion-packet
- description
- Build a promotion case that proves you're already operating at the next level. Use when asked to write a promo packet/case, prepare for a promotion committee, or make the case for a level-up or title change. Produces a promotion packet — the level-up thesis, evidence mapped to each next-level competency, scope/impact highlights, peer-quote slots, and the gaps to close before submitting.
Promotion Packet Skill
Promotions reward demonstrated operation at the next level, not potential or tenure. The committee asks one question: is the evidence that they're already doing the next-level job? This skill builds the packet that answers it — mapping your work to each competency at the target level, surfacing the scope and impact that prove it, and honestly flagging the gaps so you submit when you'll actually win.
Required Inputs
Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:
- Current level → target level, and the ladder/rubric for the target level (the competencies it requires).
- Your evidence — accomplishments with impact (a
brag-docis ideal input). - Scope — the breadth of your influence (self → team → multi-team → org).
- Supporters — peers/stakeholders who can vouch, and for what.
Output Format
Promotion Packet — [name], [current] → [target]
1. Thesis — 2–3 sentences: you are already operating at [target], and here's the through-line of evidence. Promotion = recognition of current reality, framed this way.
2. Competency evidence — the core of the packet; one row per target-level competency:
| Target-level competency | Evidence (specific, with impact) | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| e.g. Drives multi-team initiatives | Led the X program across 3 teams → [outcome] | multi-team |
Every competency needs at least one strong, recent, evidenced example — gaps here are what sink packets.
3. Impact highlights — your 3–4 strongest wins, quantified, framed at the target level's expected scope.
4. Peer/stakeholder support — who will vouch and the specific thing each speaks to (leave quote slots).
5. Gap analysis (private, pre-submit) — competencies where the evidence is thin or stale, and a plan to close them. Submitting with visible gaps wastes a cycle; this section decides whether it's time.

Quality Checks
- The case is framed as "already operating at the next level", not "ready for / deserves it"
- Every target-level competency has at least one strong, recent, evidenced example
- Impact is quantified and framed at the target level's scope, not the current one
- Named supporters are mapped to specific competencies they can speak to
- A private gap analysis honestly flags weak spots and whether to submit now or next cycle
Anti-Patterns
- Do not argue from tenure or effort ("I've been here 3 years", "I work hard") — committees reward demonstrated scope and impact
- Do not leave a target competency unevidenced — one unbacked competency is the gap reviewers latch onto
- Do not frame it as potential — "could do the next level" loses to "is already doing it"
- Do not pad with low-level wins — they signal you're operating below the target level
- Do not submit with known gaps to "see what happens" — a failed packet is costly; close gaps first
Based On
Engineering/IC ladder promotion practice — operate-at-level evidence mapped to a competency rubric.
Example Trigger Phrases
- "Write a promo packet/case."
- "Prepare for a promotion committee."
- "Make the case for a level-up."
