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 Im overthinking this
- Help me just decide
- I keep going back and forth
- This shouldnt be so hard
Example prompts
- “/stop-overthinking-this”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Check if it deserves deliberation. Big and irreversible? Take your time. Small or reversible? The overthinking is the problem, not the…
- Use the deliberation as a signal. If you've been stuck this long, the options are probably close to equal — which is proof the choice…

- Close the loop. Explicit permission to decide and move on, and to not revisit it — the decision is now made.
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
Stop Overthinking This loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 142 tokens; SKILL.md has 533 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.

- stop-overthinking-this
- description
- Break an analysis-paralysis loop on a small or reversible decision — set a limit, force a call, and move on. Use when asked I'm overthinking this, help me just decide, I keep going back and forth, or this shouldn't be so hard. Produces a quick read on whether this decision even deserves deliberation (most don't), the realization that the options are probably close enough that it doesn't matter much, a forced pick via a simple rule, and permission to move on — because the overthinking is costing more than a slightly-wrong choice ever would.
Stop Overthinking This
Some decisions deserve careful thought. Most of the ones you're spinning on don't — they're small, reversible, or the options are so close that the deliberation costs more than any wrong choice would. This calls that out, forces a pick with a simple rule, and gives you permission to move on. The goal isn't the perfect choice; it's to stop paying rent on a decision that doesn't matter.
What This Skill Produces
- A does-this-deserve-it check — is this actually a big/irreversible decision, or are you overthinking a small one?
- The "it's close" reveal — the recognition that if you've deliberated this long, the options are probably near-equal, which means it barely matters
- A forced pick — a simple mechanism to just choose (a rule, a gut-call, a coin flip you react to)
- The real cost named — what the overthinking itself is costing (time, energy, the other things not getting done)
- Permission to move on — an explicit close, so the loop actually ends
Required Inputs
Ask for these if not provided:
- The decision — what you're spinning on
- How long you've deliberated — a clue to how close the options are
- Reversibility & stakes — can you change it later; how much rides on it
- What you keep going back and forth between — the options
Framework: Right-Size It, Then Force The Call
- Check if it deserves deliberation. Big and irreversible? Take your time. Small or reversible? The overthinking is the problem, not the choice.
- Use the deliberation as a signal. If you've been stuck this long, the options are probably close to equal — which is proof the choice doesn't matter much.
- Name the cost of spinning. The time, energy, and mental space the loop is eating — usually far more than the difference between the options.
- Force the pick. A simple rule ("pick the one you leaned toward first"), a gut call, or a coin flip you notice your reaction to — anything that ends it.
- Close the loop. Explicit permission to decide and move on, and to not revisit it — the decision is now made.

Output Format
Overthinking: [the decision] · deliberated for [time]
Does this deserve it? [no — small/reversible → stop / yes — genuinely big → this isn't your skill]. The tell: you've gone back and forth this long → the options are close → it barely matters. What the spinning is costing: [time / energy / everything else]. 👉 Pick: [forced-choice mechanism] → go with that. Now move on. It's decided. Don't reopen it.
Quality Checks
- Checks whether the decision actually deserves deliberation
- Reframes long deliberation as proof the options are close
- Names the real cost of the overthinking
- Forces an actual pick with a simple mechanism
- Gives explicit permission to move on
- Redirects genuinely big decisions to real deliberation
Anti-Patterns
- Adding more analysis to an overthinking problem.
- Forcing a snap call on a genuinely big, irreversible decision.
- No actual pick at the end.
- Leaving the loop open to be reopened later.
Example Trigger Phrases
- "I'm massively overthinking which laptop to buy — just help me decide."
- "I keep going back and forth on this. Make me choose."
- "This shouldn't be this hard. Help me stop spinning."
- "I've spent an hour on a tiny decision. End it."
- "Help me just pick and move on."
