What it does

Wedding Speech is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. A best-man/maid-of-honour/parent wedding toast that actually lands — funny without roasting, moving without syrup, short enough that nobody checks their phone. Use when someone has to give a wedding speech and has either nothing or a dangerous first draft. Produces a 2-4 minute toast built on one good story, plus delivery notes and the three jokes to cut.

Its SKILL.md is about 900 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

  • Someone has to give a wedding speech and has either nothing
  • A dangerous first draft

Example prompts

  • “/wedding-speech”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Open with a laugh that costs nothing — self-deprecating or situational, never at the couple's expense yet ("For those who don't know me…
  2. The story — ONE, well told, about the person you know: specific, visual, ending somewhere character-revealing.
  3. The pivot — "and then they met ___" — the story's trait meets the partner; this is where the room goes quiet in the good way. What changed…
  4. The direct address — two sentences TO the couple, not about them.
  5. The toast — stand, raise, one line, their names last.

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

Wedding Speech loads about 903 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 493 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~93
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~903

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.

A best-man/maid-of-honour/parent wedding toast that actually lands — funny without roasting, moving without syrup, short enough that nobody checks their phone.

Wedding Speech

Every bad wedding speech fails the same three ways: too long, too inside, or secretly about the speaker. The fix is structural — one story, one arc from laughter to warmth, one glass raised under four minutes.

Required Inputs

  • The role (best man, maid of honour, parent, friend) and the speaker's real relationship to the couple.
  • One to three stories about the person they know best — including the unusable ones (exes, arrests, hazings: they won't be used, but they often contain a usable kernel).
  • What they honestly think of the partner — the pivot of the whole speech lives here.
  • Audience shape: grandparents present? Two families with different humour thresholds? Cultural or religious considerations?

The Arc That Works

  1. Open with a laugh that costs nothing — self-deprecating or situational, never at the couple's expense yet ("For those who don't know me — which after this speech may be a choice…").
  2. The story — ONE, well told, about the person you know: specific, visual, ending somewhere character-revealing.
  3. The pivot — "and then they met ___" — the story's trait meets the partner; this is where the room goes quiet in the good way. What changed in your person, said plainly.
  4. The direct address — two sentences TO the couple, not about them.
  5. The toast — stand, raise, one line, their names last.

Output Format

  • The speech — 300-500 words (2-4 minutes), speaker's register, laugh lines and the quiet moment clearly built.
  • Delivery notes — where to pause for laughter (and what to do if it doesn't come: keep going, never explain), pace guidance, the reminder to hold the glass DOWN until the toast.
  • The cut list — the jokes/stories from the input that must not survive, each with the one-line reason (wrong audience, punches down, secretly about you, ex-adjacent). Naming the cuts prevents relapse at the open bar.
Show full SKILL.md (192 more words)Show less

Quality Checks

  • One story, not three — anything cut for length is cut, not compressed into a montage
  • The partner is praised specifically (a trait with evidence), not generically ("so great together")
  • Nothing requires context the median guest lacks — the inside-joke test is applied line by line
  • Grandmother-safe at the stated audience level; edgy lines survive only with explicit clearance
  • Under 500 words, ends on the toast, couple's names are the last words

Anti-Patterns

  • Do not roast — one 90th-percentile-gentle tease maximum, and it must be one the subject would retell themselves
  • Do not mention exes, past relationships, or "we never thought this day would come" energy — no exceptions, including implied
  • Do not let the speaker's own journey take the spotlight — two "I" sentences is the budget outside the story
  • Do not write toward tears — earn the quiet moment with specificity and let the room decide
  • Do not exceed four minutes for any reason offered — "but there are two good stories" is the beginning of every twelve-minute speech

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Write my best man speech."
  • "Write a maid of honour toast."
  • "Write a father of the bride speech."
  • "Fix my wedding speech draft."
