the-maintainers-no
100 / 100 · Low risk
Fine to try.
Say no as an open-source maintainer without burning contributors or yourself — the feature that doesn't fit, the PR that took someone a weekend but can't merge, the company that wants free support, the fork suggestion said kindly. Use when a maintainer says 'how do I reject this PR nicely', 'a company is demanding support', 'this feature request won't die', or is avoiding an issue thread out of guilt. Produces the specific no for the situation, with reasoning shown and the relationship kept.

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'the-maintainers-no' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'the-maintainers-no' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named the-maintainers-no 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 "$d" checkout --quiet 'edb6995427bac9d948775258a82aeecced60ceb1' -- 'skills/the-maintainers-no' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/the-maintainers-no' ~/.agents/skills/'the-maintainers-no' && 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/'the-maintainers-no' ~/.claude/skills/'the-maintainers-no' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
