Write a performance self-review that's specific, evidenced, and balanced.

  • Asked to write a self-review

What it does

Self Review is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Write a performance self-review that's specific, evidenced, and balanced. Use when asked to write a self-review, self-assessment, or self-evaluation for a performance cycle. Produces a complete self-review — accomplishments mapped to impact and competencies, growth areas owned honestly, and a forward-looking development plan, in the voice of the person being reviewed.

Its SKILL.md is about 850 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 Agent Workflows. 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 self-review
  • Self-assessment
  • Self-evaluation for a performance cycle

Example prompts

  • “/self-review”

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

Self Review loads about 845 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 96 tokens; SKILL.md has 416 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~96
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~845

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
Write a performance self-review that's specific, evidenced, and balanced. Use when asked to write a self-review, self-assessment, or self-evaluation for a performance cycle. Produces a complete self-review — accomplishments mapped to impact and competencies, growth areas owned honestly, and a forward-looking development plan, in the voice of the person being reviewed.

Self-Review Skill

A self-review is your one chance to frame your own year before someone else does. Done badly it's a vague list of activities; done well it's an evidenced narrative that maps your work to the competencies you're measured on, owns growth honestly, and sets up the next level. This skill writes that — pulling straight from a brag-doc if you have one.

Required Inputs

Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:

  • Your role, level, and the review period.
  • Accomplishments — your wins with impact/metrics (or point to a brag doc).
  • The competency framework / rating dimensions you're assessed on (if any).
  • Growth areas — where you fell short or want to develop (be honest; reviewers trust self-awareness).
  • Goals for the next period.

Output Format

Self-Review — [name], [role], [period]

1. Summary — 3–4 sentences: the headline of your period and the through-line. Lead with impact.

2. Key accomplishments — your top 3–6, each as outcome → your contribution → evidence → which competency it demonstrates. Quantify; tie to team/company goals.

3. Strengths — the 2–3 competencies you most demonstrated, with the proof.

4. Growth areas — 1–3, owned plainly: what was hard, what you learned, what you're changing. This section builds credibility when it's specific and non-defensive (not "I work too hard").

5. Goals & development plan — what you'll focus on next period and the support you need.

6. Rating rationale (if self-rating) — the rating you'd give and the evidence for it, calibrated to the framework — not inflated, not falsely modest.

Quality Checks

  • Accomplishments are quantified and tied to the competency framework / company goals
  • Each claim is backed by specific evidence, not adjectives
  • Growth areas are genuine and specific (not humble-brags), with what you're doing about them
  • The narrative has a through-line, not just a list
  • A self-rating (if used) is calibrated to the rubric with evidence — defensible, not aspirational

Anti-Patterns

  • Do not list activities — map every accomplishment to an outcome and a competency
  • Do not disguise a strength as a weakness ("too detail-oriented") — it reads as evasive; name a real growth area
  • Do not claim team wins as solo, or undersell your role out of modesty — be precise about your contribution
  • Do not inflate the self-rating beyond what the evidence supports — it costs credibility in calibration
  • Do not write in vague superlatives — "drove significant impact" means nothing without the number

Based On

Competency-based performance-review practice — evidence-mapped accomplishments and calibrated self-assessment.

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Write my self-review."
  • "Write my self-assessment for this cycle."
  • "Help me write my self-evaluation."
  • "Turn my year into a performance self-review."
