Drafts specific, observable, kind workplace feedback using the SBI model - Situation, Behavior, Impact - for both praise and correction. Use when someone asks "help me give feedback to a teammate", "how do I tell my report they keep missing deadlines", "make this feedback less vague", or wants to reinforce a good behavior specifically. Do NOT use for formal performance review documents - use performance-review-writer instead; for feedback on student work, use student-feedback-writer; for…

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

# Feedback Writer

Vague feedback ("be more proactive") is useless and stressful: the receiver cannot act on it and cannot defend against it. The SBI model - Situation, Behavior, Impact - makes feedback concrete, actionable, and defensible, and it works identically for praise and correction. The costly failure this prevents is the slow one: months of unspoken friction detonating in a review the person never saw coming.

## The SBI model

- Situation - when and where it happened. Anchors the feedback in one real moment.
- Behavior - what the person observably did or said. No interpretation, no labels, no motives.
- Impact - the effect on you, the team, or the work. This is the "why it matters."
- Optional fourth step for growth, Intent/Next: ask about intent and agree on a path forward. Ask before prescribing - you may be missing context.

## Operating procedure

### Step 1: Gather the inputs

Before drafting, pin down:

- The single specific moment (meeting, PR, call, message thread). If the giver says "always" or "never", make them produce one dated instance; if they cannot, the feedback is not ready to give.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add skillmedev/skills/feedback-writer@sha256:5ecd4d57449a96a2

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261005.bea4ea5, 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.
