What it does

Rejection Sensitivity Reframe is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Reread a harsh message, criticism, or perceived slight without the emotional spike — separate what was actually said from what your brain is amplifying. Use when asked this message really stung, am I overreacting to this, help me not spiral over this feedback, or did they mean it that way. Produces a calm read of what was literally said vs the story you've layered on, a check on the most likely (usually more neutral) intent, whether any action is actually warranted, and a grounded response option — easing the…

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

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 this message really stung
  • Am I overreacting to this
  • Help me not spiral over this feedback
  • Did they mean it that way

Example prompts

  • “/rejection-sensitivity-reframe”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read only the words. State what was literally said or done, with zero interpretation — the text, not the meaning.
  2. Name the added story. Surface the interpretation the brain has layered on ("they're angry," "I've failed," "they're pulling away") and…
  3. Offer the likely intent. Give the most probable neutral explanation — brevity is usually busyness, not fury; feedback is usually about the…
  4. Test if action is needed. Most stings need no action — just time. Distinguish the rare real issue from the spike that will pass.
  5. Ground any response. If a response is warranted, offer a calm one written from the reframe, not from the raw reaction — and counsel…

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

Rejection Sensitivity Reframe loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 151 tokens; SKILL.md has 525 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~151
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

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
Reread a harsh message, criticism, or perceived slight without the emotional spike — separate what was actually said from what your brain is amplifying. Use when asked this message really stung, am I overreacting to this, help me not spiral over this feedback, or did they mean it that way. Produces a calm read of what was literally said vs the story you've layered on, a check on the most likely (usually more neutral) intent, whether any action is actually warranted, and a grounded response option — easing the disproportionate sting that rejection-sensitive brains feel.

Rejection-Sensitivity Reframe

A curt reply or a piece of feedback can land like a gut-punch far bigger than the words warrant — especially for rejection-sensitive brains, where a neutral "ok." reads as fury. This separates the literal message from the catastrophe your mind is building on top of it, checks the likely real intent, and tells you whether anything actually needs doing — so you respond to what happened, not to the spike.

What This Skill Produces

  • What was literally said — the actual words, stripped of interpretation
  • The story you've added — the meaning your brain layered on (the rejection, the anger, the "they hate me") that isn't in the text
  • The likely real intent — the most probable, usually more neutral, explanation
  • Is action warranted? — whether this genuinely needs a response/repair, or just needs to be let go
  • A grounded response — if one's needed, a calm option that isn't driven by the spike

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not provided:

  • The message or event — what was said or happened (paste it)
  • How it landed — what you felt and the story you're telling
  • The relationship & context — who it's from and what's normal for them
  • What you're tempted to do — so we can check it against the reality

Framework: Separate The Words From The Wound

  1. Read only the words. State what was literally said or done, with zero interpretation — the text, not the meaning.
  2. Name the added story. Surface the interpretation the brain has layered on ("they're angry," "I've failed," "they're pulling away") and mark it as story, not fact.
  3. Offer the likely intent. Give the most probable neutral explanation — brevity is usually busyness, not fury; feedback is usually about the work, not you.
  4. Test if action is needed. Most stings need no action — just time. Distinguish the rare real issue from the spike that will pass.
  5. Ground any response. If a response is warranted, offer a calm one written from the reframe, not from the raw reaction — and counsel waiting before sending if it's hot.

Output Format

The thing that stung: [the message/event]

What was literally said: [the words, no interpretation]. The story you've added: [the amplified meaning — which isn't in the text]. Most likely intent: [the neutral, probable explanation]. Does this need action? [probably just let it settle / yes — here's why]. If you respond: [a calm, grounded option] — and maybe wait an hour first.

Quality Checks

  • Separates the literal words from the added interpretation
  • Names the amplified story explicitly as story, not fact
  • Offers the likely neutral intent
  • Honestly assesses whether action is actually needed
  • Any response option is grounded, not spike-driven
  • Validates the feeling without endorsing the catastrophe

Anti-Patterns

  • Dismissing the feeling ("you're overreacting") — invalidating.
  • Endorsing the catastrophe as if the story were fact.
  • Pushing a hot response instead of counseling a pause.
  • Assuming action is needed when letting it settle is right.

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "This message from my boss really stung — am I overreacting?"
  • "My friend replied 'k.' and I'm spiraling. Help."
  • "This feedback crushed me — help me reread it calmly."
  • "Did they mean it the harsh way, or is it just me?"
  • "Help me not catastrophize this text."
