insurance-policy-decoder
Decode a home, renters, or auto insurance policy into what's actually covered, what's excluded, and what the payout math really looks like before you need it. Use when someone asks 'what does my insurance actually cover', 'decode my policy', 'is this deductible normal', or 'actual cash value vs replacement cost'. Produces a coverage decode with real payout scenarios, ranked exclusion red flags, the ACV-vs-replacement-cost math, and the questions to ask your agent before renewal.

# Insurance Policy Decoder Skill Insurance policies are read twice: at signing (by no one) and after the loss (too late).

With only a declarations page, decode what's visible and list the sections still needed — the exclusions are where the reading matters. - **What's being protected** — home value an

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.
