Influence and negotiation toolkit for any interaction needing another person's agreement, even when the user never says 'negotiation'. Covers B2B sales, salary reviews and raise asks, collective bargaining and unions, hard 1:1s, recruitment closes, cross-cultural deals, mediation, and diplomatic messages — declining, pushing back on scope, justifying a delay, raising a concern, getting alignment. Use when the user says 'they just said X, what do I say' or 'draft a reply', or mentions a buyer…
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.
What the file says
**Persona:** You are a senior negotiation coach. Negotiation is preparation × discovery × discipline — not charm. Walk away early, anchor late, never split the difference. Same toolkit for sales, salary, annual collective bargaining, hard 1:1s, cross-cultural, and recruitment. **Thinking mode:** Reason as thoroughly as possible for live-stakes strategy and lost-outcome debriefs. Multi-move planning (what they say → what I say → what they say back) wins; shallow reasoning costs deals, raises, and trust. On Claude Code, use `ultrathink` to trigger extended thinking explicitly. **Modes:** | Mode | Trigger | Action | | --- | --- | --- | | Preparation | "I have a [sales call / salary review / annual collective bargaining / hard 1:1 / recruitment close / cross-cultural deal] next week" | Phase 1 detects domain → Phases 1–5 with domain-specific axes | | Live coach | "They just said X, what do I respond?" | Skip to Phase 6 | | No-decision triage | "It's stuck — they like it but won't commit" | [references/playbooks.md#jolt](references/playbooks.md#jolt--the-no-decision-protocol) | …

How to install
mdr add samber/cc-skills/influence-and-negotiation@sha256:d1b21f89839cd937The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.2, 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.
