What it does

The Promotion Committee is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Simulate the calibration meeting that discusses your promotion after your manager leaves the room — the debate, the packet's holes, the verdict. Use when asked will I get promoted, simulate the promo committee, stress-test my promotion packet, or why did my promo get rejected. Produces the committee transcript (four archetypes on YOUR packet), the internal verdict with the real reason, and a debrief separating fixable gaps from timing politics.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k 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, covering Performance reviews and Load testing. 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 will I get promoted
  • Simulate the promo committee
  • Stress-test my promotion packet
  • Why did my promo get rejected

Example prompts

  • “/the-promotion-committee”

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

The Promotion Committee loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 118 tokens; SKILL.md has 514 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~118
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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
Simulate the calibration meeting that discusses your promotion after your manager leaves the room — the debate, the packet's holes, the verdict. Use when asked will I get promoted, simulate the promo committee, stress-test my promotion packet, or why did my promo get rejected. Produces the committee transcript (four archetypes on YOUR packet), the internal verdict with the real reason, and a debrief separating fixable gaps from timing politics.

The Promotion Committee Skill

Promotions are decided in a room you're not in, by people comparing you to candidates you've never met, reading a packet in four minutes. This skill runs that room early: your actual evidence, debated by the archetypes calibration meetings really contain — then breaks character to tell you which objections are fixable this cycle and which are politics wearing a rubric.

What This Skill Produces

  • The transcript — four committee archetypes debating your packet, 12–18 exchanges
  • The verdict memo — promote / hold / needs-a-cycle, with the real reason vs the feedback you'd be given
  • The debrief — gaps ranked by fixability, with the evidence that would close each

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not provided:

  • The packet substance — accomplishments with scope/impact, the level sought, the ladder criteria if available
  • The manager's pitch — how strongly and with what evidence they'll advocate (honest read)
  • The context — how many slots vs candidates, your tenure at level, any known skeptics
  • The known weakness — the thing you hope nobody asks; the committee always asks

Framework: The Four Chairs

ArchetypeWhat they weighTheir tell
The Sponsor (your manager's proxy)Sells your two strongest artifactsOverreaches on scope claims — invites the challenge
The Bar-KeeperThe ladder text, literally"That's solid at-level performance" — the sentence that kills promos
The ComparatorYou vs the other packets THIS cycle"Both are strong; we have one slot"
The Skeptic-of-EvidenceWhether impact claims survive reading"Led — or participated? The doc says the team shipped it"

Committee mechanics to honor: packets get minutes, not hours — the first artifact carries disproportionate weight · "next-level work already happening" beats "ready for next-level work" everywhere · scope inflation, once caught, taints the true claims too · absence of a named sponsor beyond the manager is itself discussed.

Output Format

Calibration: [name] → [level] — [cycle]

Simulation — a plausible adversarial reading, not a prediction.

Transcript

[The debate, grounded ONLY in the supplied packet; where evidence is missing, the committee notices the absence — that's the feedback]

Verdict Memo

Outcome: PROMOTE / HOLD (real reason: …) — and the softer version HR will relay What tipped it: … The comparison that mattered: …

Debrief — out of character

Gap the committee foundFixable this cycle?The evidence that closes it
[Plus: the one artifact to lead the next packet with, and the sponsor-beyond-your-manager problem if present]

Quality Checks

  • Every committee claim traces to the supplied packet or a noticed absence
  • The Bar-Keeper quotes level criteria against specific accomplishments
  • The verdict's real reason differs from the relayed feedback when it realistically would
  • The debrief separates evidence gaps from slot/timing politics honestly
  • "At-level vs next-level" framing appears — it's the axis promotions actually turn on

Anti-Patterns

  • Do not pull punches — a committee that loves the packet teaches nothing
  • Do not invent accomplishments to debate — absences ARE the finding
  • Do not let the Sponsor win by enthusiasm — packets win on evidence the skeptic can't dent
  • Do not present politics as fixable — naming the unfixable is the kindest output
  • Do not stay in character in the debrief

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Will I get promoted?"
  • "Simulate the promo committee."
  • "Stress-test my promotion packet."
  • "Why did my promo get rejected?"
