Drafts a passable Performance Improvement Plan with the specific gap and dated examples, SMART expectations, the support offered, review points and the possible outcomes, after a pre-check of who decided a PIP is warranted. Use for "run hr-performance-improvement-plan", "write a PIP", "performance improvement plan", "how to write a performance improvement plan", "PIP template", "put someone on a PIP", "our PIPs never work", "set PIP check-ins", part of the AI for HR Pack by 90n.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

A manager has a documented performance gap, coaching has not closed it, and you need a plan that states the standard, the help and the dates so the employee can genuinely meet it. ## When Not To Use If the issue is conduct (lateness as a rule breach, rudeness, a policy breach) rather than capability, use Disciplinary Procedure.

How to install
mdr add polar-bear-org/claude-skills/hr-performance-improvement-plan@sha256:8696800b30879f65The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261026.a2f0899, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
