Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

What it costs to keep this loaded
Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00071 | $0.02854 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00036 | $0.01427 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00571 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00285 |
Grade A, and why
utility-update-pm-skills scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 13d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

PM Skills Updater
This skill updates a local pm-skills installation to the latest public release. It validates connectivity, compares versions, detects local modifications, gives the user control over conflict resolution, and produces a structured update report documenting every change.
The updater operates in three phases:
- Pre-flight -- validate internet access and determine version delta.
- Update -- fetch the latest release and apply changes with conflict-aware overwrite-or-skip logic.
- Report -- generate a markdown report summarizing what changed, what was skipped, and what new capabilities are available.
When to Use
- When you want to update your local pm-skills to the latest release
- After a new pm-skills version is announced and you want to pull it in
- When you're unsure whether your local copy is current
- When onboarding to a team that uses pm-skills and you want the latest version
- When you want a structured summary of what changed between your version and the latest
When NOT to Use
- To create or edit individual skills -> use
/pm-skill-builderor/pm-skill-iterate - To validate skills against conventions -> use
/pm-skill-validate - If you are a maintainer working directly on the pm-skills repo (use git instead)
- If you need to pin a specific older version (this skill always targets the latest release)
Instructions
When asked to update pm-skills, follow these steps:
Step 1: Validate Internet Access
Before attempting any remote operations, confirm connectivity to GitHub.
How to validate:
- Attempt to reach the GitHub API or the public repository URL:
https://github.com/product-on-purpose/pm-skills - Use any available method:
curl,wget,fetch, GitHub CLI (gh), or the GitHub MCP tools.
If connectivity fails:
- Report the failure clearly with the error details.
- Suggest troubleshooting steps: check network, proxy settings, VPN, or firewall rules.
- Stop execution. Do not proceed to Step 2.
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

Other skills, from other repositories
idea-validator
Use when the user asks to validate a product idea, stress-test an idea, evaluate whether an idea is good, or decide whether to build something. Do NOT use for prioritizing an existing backlog or reviewing a shipped feature — those need RICE scoring or a design review instead.
product-designer
Use when the user asks to review a design, critique a UI or mockup, give design feedback, or check a screen for usability and accessibility issues. Do NOT use for visual brand or aesthetic preference debates, or for reviewing copy before layout is settled.
prompt-engineer
Use when the user asks to improve, optimize, rewrite, debug, or shorten a prompt, or asks why a prompt is producing bad output. Do NOT use for writing a Claude Code SKILL.md — that needs skill structure rules, not prompt techniques.
status-update-writer
Use when the user asks to write a status update, weekly or monthly update, stakeholder update, project update, standup, status report, or QBR. Do NOT use for writing a PRD or a retro doc — those need different structures.
linkedin-post-writer
Use when the user asks to write, draft, or rewrite a LinkedIn post, turn notes or an article into a LinkedIn post, or fix a hook that is not landing. Do NOT use for X/Twitter threads, newsletters, or blog posts — those need different length and hook rules.
spec-from-conversation
Turn an unstructured stakeholder conversation, Slack thread, or meeting transcript into a structured spec (problem, goals, non-goals, success metrics, open questions). Use whenever a PM has raw conversational input and needs a first-draft spec, or when someone says "can you turn this into a doc" after a discussion.…
