From the SKILL.md

<!-- PM-Skills | https://github.com/product-on-purpose/pm-skills | Apache 2.0 --> # PM Critic (Dispatch Skill) This skill is a cross-client dispatch wrapper for the `pm-critic` sub-agent. It exists so that users on non-Claude clients can run adversarial review with the same intent as Claude Code users, without depending on native plugin sub-agent infrastructure. Per master plan D11 (amended) + D30, sub-agents are a Claude Code plugin feature. Non-Claude clients (Codex CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Gemini CLI) cannot natively load `agents/pm-critic.md`. This skill bridges the gap. ## When to Use - You want adversarial review of a PM artifact (PRD, OKR set, persona, lean canvas, meeting recap, interview synthesis, problem statement, hypothesis, edge case catalog, retrospective, etc.) - You are running on a non-Claude AI client and the `pm-critic` sub-agent is not natively available - You are running on Claude Code and prefer skill-invocation semantics over sub-agent semantics (e.g., for consistency across a multi-step workflow that mixes skills and sub-agent intents) ## When NOT to Use - You want a structural lint / repo-level audit -> use `utility-pm-skill-auditor` (audits skills

About this skill
What does the utility-pm-critic skill do?

Run adversarial review on a PM artifact via the pm-critic sub-agent. Returns findings graded P0/P1/P2/P3 with a concrete fix suggestion per finding and a machine-readable status block. Use after producing a PRD, meeting recap, OKR set, persona, or any PM artifact you want stress-tested before it ships.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add product-on-purpose/pm-skills --skill utility-pm-critic --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From product-on-purpose/pm-skills, a repository with 518 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.
