Lenny Skills is a collection of product-management and engineering workflows for Claude Code and other AI agents, covering areas such as strategy, research, planning, shipping, growth, and hiring. Each skill gives an agent specialized guidance, frameworks, checklists, or templates for product work, and the catalogue contains many of these skills.
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 | $0.00027 | $0.01391 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00696 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00278 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00139 |
Grade A, and why
goal-setting-okrs scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 12d 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.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 95 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Goal Setting and OKRs
Drive organizational focus by translating long-term strategy into ambitious measurable outcomes.
Help the user with goal setting and okrs using insights from 19 guests and posts across Lenny's Podcast and Newsletter.
How to Help
- Contextualize the Hierarchy - Help the user map their current mission and vision down to specific measurable goals.
- Calibrate Ambition - Guide the user in setting crazy big goals while identifying the first microscopic steps needed to start.
- Validate Metric Selection - Ensure chosen metrics are predictive of user success and based on absolute volume rather than easily gamed percentages.
- Draft Success Headlines - Assist in writing qualitative headlines that describe the desired state of the product by the end of the period.
Core Principles
Absolute Volume Growth
Archie Abrams: "When you have teams naturally break up the world into different funnel stages or different points in the journey, it gets very seductive to look at my part of the funnel and what's my conversion rate through that part of the funnel, right? And then the team starts to optimize for that conversion rate as their north star. But in practice, it's actually almost always easier to just make it harder to do the thing right before your step in the funnel to increase your conversion rate."
Focus on total users hitting milestones rather than conversion rates. This prevents teams from gaming metrics by narrowing the top of the funnel to artificially inflate percentages.
Radical Focus
Christina Wodtke: "It creates alignment. There's no question what the single most important thing to do in the company is, assuming you're doing radical focus and you don't have 20 OKRs every quarter."
Limit the number of OKRs to ensure the team is not spreading resources too thin. Focus on the single most important priority to drive real movement every quarter.
Outcome Orientation
Daniel Lereya: "In some cases, doing the biggest impact is not developing another feature, it's about making the current value more accessible."
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.

goal-setting-okrs is a skill published in the GitHub repository RefoundAI/lenny-skills (1,321 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 1,391 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
Other skills, from other repositories
llama-cpp
Run LLM inference with llama.cpp on CPU, Apple Silicon, AMD/Intel GPUs, or NVIDIA — plus GGUF model conversion and quantization (2–8 bit with K-quants and imatrix). Covers CLI, Python bindings, OpenAI-compatible server, and Ollama/LM Studio integration. Use for edge deployment, M1/M2/M3/M4 Macs, CUDA-less…
systematic-debugging
Use when encountering any bug, test failure, or unexpected behavior. 4-phase root cause investigation — NO fixes without understanding the problem first.
github-auth
Set up GitHub authentication for the agent using git (universally available) or the gh CLI. Covers HTTPS tokens, SSH keys, credential helpers, and gh auth — with a detection flow to pick the right method automatically.
ideation
Generate project ideas through creative constraints. Use when the user says 'I want to build something', 'give me a project idea', 'I'm bored', 'what should I make', 'inspire me', or any variant of 'I have tools but no direction'. Works for code, art, hardware, writing, tools, and anything that can be made.
notion
Notion API for creating and managing pages, databases, and blocks via curl. Search, create, update, and query Notion workspaces directly from the terminal.
ocr-and-documents
Extract text from PDFs and scanned documents. Use webextract for remote URLs, pymupdf for local text-based PDFs, marker-pdf for OCR/scanned docs. For DOCX use python-docx, for PPTX see the powerpoint skill.
