Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned paramchoudhary/resumeskills at 74ae19e7c6.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill helps you prepare for salary negotiations by researching market rates, building negotiation strategies, and calculating total compensation packages. It provides guidance on understanding your worth, identifying leverage points, and crafting persuasive arguments to maximize your earning potential. The tool aims to empower users with the knowledge and confidence needed to navigate salary discussions effectively.

When to use it

  • You're about to negotiate a job offer or salary increase.
  • You want to research typical market rates for your role and experience level.
  • You need help developing a counter-offer strategy.
  • You want to understand the components of a total compensation package beyond just base salary.
  • You're unsure how much you should ask for in a negotiation.

Key capabilities

  • Building negotiation strategies and scripts.
  • Calculating total compensation, including base salary, signing bonus, equity, benefits, and perks.
  • Preparing responses to counter-offers.
  • Identifying leverage points in a negotiation.

Example prompts

Tips & gotchas

  • Remember that negotiation is expected and often budgeted for by companies.
  • Be prepared to consider the entire compensation package, not just the base salary.
  • Utilize resources like Levels.fyi for tech-specific salary data, but be mindful of potential biases in sources like Glassdoor.
