Compares a changed HR policy with the version it replaces and drafts a clause-by-clause change log, a plain-language DRAFT employee briefing, a manager FAQ answered only from the policy text with clause references, and a list of open questions the people team must settle before release. Use when the user asks to explain, announce, summarise or brief a policy change, a new policy version or an updated handbook section, or says "what changed in the leave policy…
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
# Policy change briefing ## Purpose Turn a new HR policy version and the version it replaces into a change log and three DRAFT documents: an employee briefing, a manager FAQ and open questions for the people team. Every briefing sentence and FAQ answer traces to a clause or the owner's change note; an unanswered question becomes an open question, not an interpretation. The agent drafts; the policy owner and the people team decide what is published. ## When to use - The user asks to explain, announce, summarise or brief a policy change to employees or managers. - The user has two versions of a policy, handbook section or HR procedure and wants to know what changed and what to say. - The user wants a manager FAQ or a "what this means for you" note for a revised policy. - Not for drafting the policy itself, legal compliance advice, an individual's case, or negotiating with employee representatives. - Do not use for a single announcement with no version comparison, use announcement-drafter instead; for an FAQ from documents that are not a policy change, use faq-builder; for contract clauses, use clause-comparison-table. ## Inputs …

How to install
mdr add kesslernity/awesome-copilot-agent-skills/policy-change-briefing@sha256:c46e475a91ce16baThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260917.f14a4fb, 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.
