micro-retirement-planner
Plan a deliberate career break — 3 to 12 months off between chapters — with honest runway math, the re-entry story rehearsed before you leave, health/visa/pension admin by country flagged, and kill criteria for coming back early. Use when someone says 'I want to take 6 months off', 'micro-retirement', 'sabbatical planning', 'quit and travel', or 'can I afford a break'. Produces a runway budget, a break charter with kill criteria, and the future-interview answer written in advance.

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?
