the-car-dealership
Simulate the car-buying gauntlet before you walk in — the four-square worksheet, the payment-question trap, the trade-in shuffle, and the finance office's second sales floor, all run against your actual deal. Use when asked practice negotiating at a dealership, simulate the finance office, what tricks will the dealer use, or prep me before I buy a car. Produces the showroom and finance-office transcripts with the salesperson's playbook notes, the deal outcome vs your targets, and a debrief with the holds that would have worked.

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.

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.
