What it does

Timeshare Contract Decoder is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Decode a timeshare contract before signing — the lifetime cost math, the perpetuity and fee-escalation clauses, the rescission window, and the honest resale reality. Use when asked to review this timeshare, decode my timeshare contract, can I get out of a timeshare, or is this vacation ownership worth it. Produces the true-cost projection, the clause decode with the perpetuity traps flagged, the rescission-window computation, and — for existing owners — the legitimate exit paths vs the exit-scam checklist.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/worked-example.md`).

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.

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

Timeshare Contract Decoder loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 135 tokens; SKILL.md has 580 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~135
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.9k

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
Decode a timeshare contract before signing — the lifetime cost math, the perpetuity and fee-escalation clauses, the rescission window, and the honest resale reality. Use when asked to review this timeshare, decode my timeshare contract, can I get out of a timeshare, or is this vacation ownership worth it. Produces the true-cost projection, the clause decode with the perpetuity traps flagged, the rescission-window computation, and — for existing owners — the legitimate exit paths vs the exit-scam checklist.

Timeshare Contract Decoder Skill

Timeshares are sold in a 90-minute high-pressure window and owned for decades — sometimes by your heirs. This skill does the reading the presentation was designed to prevent: the lifetime cost computed, the perpetuity and escalation clauses flagged, and the rescission clock — the single most valuable number in the document — calculated to the day. For existing owners, it separates the real exits from the exit-scam industry that preys on the trapped.

What This Skill Produces

  • The lifetime cost projection — purchase + financing + escalating fees over 10/20/30 years vs renting the same weeks
  • Clause decode — perpetuity, fee escalation, special assessments, booking reality, transfer restrictions
  • The rescission clock — jurisdiction-dependent cancellation window, computed with the how-to-cancel steps
  • Exit paths (owners) — legitimate routes vs the scam-pattern checklist

Required Inputs

Ask for these only if not provided:

  • The contract/offer — price, financing terms, annual fees, the maintenance-fee history if obtainable
  • When it was signed (if already signed) — the rescission window may still be open; this is urgent
  • The jurisdiction of purchase — rescission periods vary widely; never guess
  • Their vacation reality — actual weeks/year they'd use, destinations, flexibility

Framework

  1. Rescission first, always: if signed within recent days, compute the window now and lead with the cancellation procedure (typically written notice, specific address, postmark rules). This paragraph outranks everything else in the decode.
  2. The lifetime math: price + loan interest (timeshare financing rates are routinely steep) + fees compounding at the historical escalation rate (ask for history; absent it, model at several plausible rates and say so) − honest usage. Compare against simply renting comparable weeks.
  3. The perpetuity flags: "in perpetuity" obligations, heir-binding language, developer's unilateral special assessments, exchange-program dependencies that can devalue independently.
  4. Resale honesty: the resale market for most timeshares is effectively near-zero; the contract's "investment" framing is decoded against that reality, plainly.
  5. The exit-scam checklist (owners): upfront-fee "exit companies," guaranteed-exit claims, cold calls citing a "buyer waiting" — pattern-flag them. Legitimate paths: rescission (if in window), developer surrender/deed-back programs, licensed resale at honest prices, attorney consultation for misrepresentation cases.

Output Format

Timeshare Decode: [property/company]

⏰ Rescission status: [in window until DATE — cancellation steps below / window closed — see exit paths]

The lifetime math | Horizon | All-in cost | Rent-equivalent | Verdict | Clause decode | Clause | Says | Means | Severity | 🚩 Ranked flags — perpetuity, escalation, assessments, booking reality — each with the quoted line Your usage vs the promise: [honest fit paragraph] Exit paths [owners: legitimate routes ranked · the scam checklist]

End verbatim: "This is a plain-language reading, not legal or financial advice — rescission rights and contract enforceability vary by jurisdiction; for an in-window cancellation act today, and for anything else confirm with a licensed attorney."

Quality Checks

  • Rescission status and date lead the decode when potentially open
  • Lifetime math shows its escalation assumption and the rent comparison
  • Perpetuity/heir language is quoted, not paraphrased
  • Resale reality is stated plainly
  • The exit-scam checklist appears for any post-window owner
  • The disclaimer appears verbatim

Anti-Patterns

  • Do not bury the rescission window — it's the most valuable number in the document and it's expiring
  • Do not use the sales deck's fee assumptions — model escalation from history or plausible rates, stated
  • Do not entertain the "investment" frame — decode it against the actual resale market
  • Do not recommend exit companies — pattern-flag the industry and point to the legitimate routes
  • Do not shame the buyer — the presentation was engineered by professionals; the decode is for deciding, not regretting

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Review this timeshare."
  • "Decode my timeshare contract."
  • "Can I get out of a timeshare?"
  • "Is this vacation ownership worth it?"
