Shrink a task you're avoiding down to a first step so small it's almost impossible not to do — beating activation-energy paralysis. Use when asked I can't get started on, help me start this task, this feels too big to begin, or break this down so I can start. Produces the dreaded task decomposed to a laughably tiny first physical action (open the doc, write one sentence), why that specific step lowers the barrier, and the next couple of micro-steps — so starting stops requiring willpower.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'task-to-first-step' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'task-to-first-step' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named task-to-first-step already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'edb6995427bac9d948775258a82aeecced60ceb1' -- 'skills/task-to-first-step' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/task-to-first-step' ~/.agents/skills/'task-to-first-step' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'task-to-first-step' ~/.claude/skills/'task-to-first-step' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
