From the source SKILL.md

Most people freeze around grief and default to "let me know if you need anything" — which quietly puts the work on the griever and rarely gets used. This gives you better: words that actually land, specific help to offer instead of vague availability, a condolence in your own voice, and how to keep showing up after everyone else has moved on — so your care reaches them instead of just easing your own discomfort.

What this skill does

Support The Bereaved 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/support-the-bereaved/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
