Every freelancer loses the same negotiation for years before noticing it's the same negotiation: the sharp intake of breath, the mysterious budget ceiling, the competitor who's "half your price," the request to "just trim the number, same scope." This skill plays the client running that playbook against your real offer — each move labeled in their private notes — then debriefs every point where you softened, with the exact words that would have held. The goal isn't winning every deal; it's never again negotiating against yourself.
The Price Pushback is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the content-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/the-price-pushback/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when asked simulate a client negotiating my rate, practice price pushback, they said I'm too expensive, or stress-test my pricing conversation. Produces the negotiation transcript with the client's private playbook notes, the deal outcome, and a debrief on every concession with its stronger alternative.
