Grief arrives with a second job: dozens of phone calls, forms, and account closures, each requiring you to say "they've died" again to a stranger — and it lands exactly when you have the least capacity to do any of it. Most guides make this worse by dumping an overwhelming master checklist. This one triages: what truly can't wait (days), what should happen soon (weeks), and the large majority that can genuinely wait months — because almost nothing on the list is as urgent as the internet implies, and permission to do it slowly is part of the help. It handles the humane logistics and points…
Grief Admin is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/grief-admin/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when someone says 'my [person] died and I don't know where to start', 'what do I need to do after a death', 'help me handle the admin', or is drowning in the paperwork of loss. Produces a triaged task list (urgent / soon / whenever), notification scripts, and a gentle sequence.
The Grief Admin Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 196,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
