New managers fail in two symmetrical ways: moving too fast (reorganizing by week 3 on pattern-matching from their last job) and moving too slow (still "just listening" at day 80 while the team concludes nobody's driving). The 90 days have a shape — listen (0–30), decide (30–60), move (60–90) — and the discipline is doing each phase's work in its phase: no irreversible changes while listening, no more listening once it's time to call things. This skill builds that plan, tuned to the situation they're actually walking into.
Manager First 90 Days is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the orchestration-frameworks sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/manager-first-90-days/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when asked I just became a manager what do I do, plan my first 90 days as a manager, taking over an existing team, or new manager 30-60-90 plan. Produces the phased plan, the listening-tour question set, the team assessment framework, and the day-one and week-6 artifacts.
The Manager First 90 Days 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 174,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
