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

# Executive Compensation

## Overview

**Canonical home for GTM compensation strategy** (IC through CRO). Comp is a
**behavior design system**, not a headline OTE. CRO packages that pay only on
bookings create mercenary quarter-end deals, logo churn, and sandbagged forecasts.
Pavilion's CRO Council — led by **Sam Jacobs** — gates variable comp on **revenue
quality**: net new ARR, NRR, and efficiency (Rule of 40 / EBITDA), not bookings alone.

**Master playbook:** `references/gtm-compensation-strategy.md` (Pattern 35).  
**Role × stage matrix:** `references/comp-by-role-stage.md`.  
**IC bands + templates:** `gtm-role-descriptions` → `comp-benchmarks.md`.  
**Founder budget / negotiation:** `founder-comp-playbook`.  
**Approval conversations:** `gtm-leadership`. **Legal:** `employment-compliance`.  
**HR GTM ramp handoff:** `hr-gtm-playbook.md` (Pattern 28).  
**Reconcile thresholds:** `references/benchmark-reconciliation.md`.

**Not legal or tax advice.** Every clause requires qualified counsel; state law
varies on non-compete, commission timing, and parachute taxes.

## When to Use

- "Design GTM comp plan" / "OTE and quota design"
- "Annual comp review for sales team"

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add leadmagic/gtm-skills/executive-compensation@sha256:d514bcf37f3ed967

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.2.0, 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.
