Skills

Downloadable skills for Claude (and other AI assistants) created by this community. Drop one into your assistant and it becomes a better-goals coach, checker, or facilitator. Point one at a filled-in Outcome Canvas for a critique of your draft. Contribute your own via GitHub.

The coaching these skills give you follows the SSH OKR Pattern. Want a first read without leaving the site? The Outcome Coach scores a draft in seconds and hands you a prompt to continue with. Need to bring your boss, your PMO or your peers along? Teach outcomes is the conversation guide that goes with the teaching-outcomes-to-others skill below.

goal-jam-facilitator

Facilitate a group "goal jam" session — a workshop where a leadership team drafts, challenges, and converges on better goals together. Use when the user is planning or running a goal-setting workshop or offsite session.

outcome-vs-output-check

Rapidly assess whether a stated goal is an outcome or an output, score it, and suggest a sharper version. Use when the user pastes a goal, OKR, or objective and wants fast feedback.

ssh-okr-pattern

Write and review OKRs in the Sooner Safer Happier pattern — an Objective as an outcome hypothesis, 3-5 key results with 3-4 leading and 1 lagging indicator, checked against the SSH OKR checklist. Use when drafting, nesting, or critiquing an OKR.

teaching-outcomes-to-others

Coach the user through influencing someone else to write better outcomes — their manager, the PMO, a peer or a whole team. Use when the user's own goal is fine but the people around them still work in outputs, or when they ask how to talk to, train, or bring along their boss, exec team, portfolio office or colleagues.

writing-better-goals

Coach the user through crafting an outcome-based goal aligned to better value, sooner, safer, happier. Use when the user wants to write, review, or improve a goal, OKR, objective, or outcome statement.
