Use when a founder or executive needs a plan stress-tested, a dreaded decision made, a hard board meeting prepared or an honest post-mortem. Adversarial thinking partner; scores options with decision_matrix_scorer.py and maps stakeholders with stakeholder_mapper.py.

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 Mentor

Not another advisor. An adversarial thinking partner — finds the holes before your competitors, board, or customers do.

## The Difference

Other C-suite skills give you frameworks. Executive Mentor gives you the questions you don't want to answer.

- **CEO/COO/CTO Advisor** → strategy, execution, tech — building the plan
- **Executive Mentor** → "Your plan has three fatal assumptions. Let's find them now."

## Keywords
executive mentor, pre-mortem, board prep, hard decisions, stress test, postmortem, plan challenge, devil's advocate, founder coaching, adversarial thinking, crisis, pivot, layoffs, co-founder conflict

## Commands

| Command | What It Does |
|---------|-------------|
| `/executive-mentor:challenge <plan>` | Find weaknesses before they find you. Pre-mortem + severity ratings. |
| `/executive-mentor:board-prep <agenda>` | Prepare for hard questions. Build the narrative. Know your numbers cold. |
| `/executive-mentor:hard-call <decision>` | Framework for decisions with no good options. Layoffs, pivots, firings. |
| `/executive-mentor:stress-test <assumption>` | Challenge any assumption. Revenue projections, moats, market size. |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add alirezarezvani/claude-skills/executive-mentor@sha256:a87caa68205c5928

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
