What it does

Thread To Decision is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Land a sprawling chat thread on an actual decision — the summarize-and-fork move (positions restated, the question isolated), the decider-and-deadline injection, and the recorded close that ends the forty-message orbit. Use when asked this thread is going in circles, get a decision out of this discussion, summarize where we landed, or why do our threads never conclude. Produces the thread summary with positions attributed, the isolated decision question, the closure message, and the decision record.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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 thread is going in circles
  • Get a decision out of this discussion
  • Summarize where we landed
  • Why do our threads never conclude

Example prompts

  • “/thread-to-decision”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Summarize before structuring: the landing message opens by compressing fairly — "Where we are: the question is X. [A] and [B] favor option…
  2. Isolate the question, park the quests: threads orbit partly because three questions share one thread — the landing names the question and…
  3. Inject the missing trio: decider, deadline, silence-meaning — "Proposal: [name] decides by Thu EOD; comments until then; silence =…
  4. Close with the why and the dissent: the decision message states the call, two sentences of why, and names the road not taken ("going with…
  5. Record or relitigate: the decision goes to the durable home (the decision log, the project doc) with a link back — and the thread gets the…

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

Thread To Decision loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 131 tokens; SKILL.md has 686 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~131
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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
Land a sprawling chat thread on an actual decision — the summarize-and-fork move (positions restated, the question isolated), the decider-and-deadline injection, and the recorded close that ends the forty-message orbit. Use when asked this thread is going in circles, get a decision out of this discussion, summarize where we landed, or why do our threads never conclude. Produces the thread summary with positions attributed, the isolated decision question, the closure message, and the decision record.

Thread To Decision Skill

Threads orbit because nobody performs the landing: forty messages in, three positions have emerged, two side-quests have spawned, and every participant believes a different thing was "basically agreed." The landing is a move, performable by anyone (not just the boss): summarize the positions fairly with names, isolate the actual question from the side-quests, inject the missing structure — a decider and a deadline (async-instead closure rules) — and when the call lands, record it where decisions live, because a decision that exists only at message 47 doesn't exist.

What This Skill Produces

  • The summary message — the thread compressed: the question, the positions with names, the side-quests parked
  • The structure injection — decider named (or proposed), deadline set, silence-meaning declared
  • The closure message — the decision, its why, dissent acknowledged
  • The record — the decision logged durably, linked back to the thread

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not provided:

  • The thread — the actual messages; summarizing positions requires reading them, and attribution requires care ("A argued X" must be fair enough that A nods)
  • The user's standing — thread owner, participant, or the person with authority to name a decider? The moves flex — a participant proposes the structure ("suggest [name] calls this by Friday?"); an owner installs it
  • The real question — threads braid several; the user's read on which one matters (the summary tests it against the thread)
  • Where decisions live — the log, the doc, the channel pin; the record needs a durable home

Framework: The Landing Rules

  1. Summarize before structuring: the landing message opens by compressing fairly — "Where we are: the question is X. [A] and [B] favor option 1 (reasons); [C] raises the cost concern; the tangent about Y is real but separate." A summary that participants recognize buys the standing to impose structure; a partisan summary restarts the war with citations.
  2. Isolate the question, park the quests: threads orbit partly because three questions share one thread — the landing names the question and explicitly parks the others ("Y deserves its own thread — starting it separately"). One thread, one decision.
  3. Inject the missing trio: decider, deadline, silence-meaning — "Proposal: [name] decides by Thu EOD; comments until then; silence = can-live-with-it." When the user lacks authority to appoint, the proposal of structure almost always gets adopted, because everyone is tired of orbiting — the mover's advantage.
  4. Close with the why and the dissent: the decision message states the call, two sentences of why, and names the road not taken ("going with 1; C's cost concern is real — we'll cap the spend at X to address it"). Acknowledged dissent ends threads; ignored dissent schedules the sequel.
  5. Record or relitigate: the decision goes to the durable home (the decision log, the project doc) with a link back — and the thread gets the final message pointing there. Six weeks later, "wait, did we decide this?" gets a link instead of a rematch. This is the decision-meeting-format record discipline, applied to the async venue where it's skipped most.

Output Format

Thread Landing: [topic] — [N] messages in

The Summary Message (post this)

[The question · positions with names, fairly · parked side-quests · the structure proposal: decider, deadline, silence-meaning]

The Closure Message (when decided)

[The call · the two-sentence why · dissent acknowledged with its accommodation if any]

The Record

[The durable entry: decision, why, date, thread link · posted at (home) · the thread's final pointer message]

Quality Checks

  • The summary would be endorsed by each summarized participant
  • Exactly one question survived; side-quests got explicit parking
  • Decider, deadline, and silence-meaning were all injected
  • The closure acknowledges dissent by name and content
  • The record lives outside the thread with links both ways

Anti-Patterns

  • Do not structure before summarizing — unearned structure reads as a power move and gets litigated
  • Do not summarize partisanly — one slanted attribution costs the whole landing
  • Do not let three questions share the landing — braided threads orbit forever
  • Do not close without the dissent line — smooth closes breed rough reopenings
  • Do not leave the decision at message 47 — un-recorded decisions have a half-life of six weeks

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Get a decision out of this discussion."
  • "Summarize where we landed."
  • "Why do our threads never conclude?"
