decision-helper
Help me decide between options with a weighted pros/cons that actually reaches a recommendation — not just two lists. Use when asked should I take job A or B, which one should I buy, help me decide, or make a pro/con list. Produces the criteria that matter (weighted by what you care about), the options scored against them, a clear recommendation with its confidence, and the single question that would flip the decision if you're still torn.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
