Does this skill work directly with Linear?

Yes, it is designed to interact with Linear issues by calling tools to save issues, change statuses, and update descriptions based on your new direction.

What happens when I tell Claude 'we need to rethink this'?

The PM Pivot skill will analyze the divergence from your current ticket and recommend whether to update the existing issue, create a new one, or split the work into multiple tasks.

How does it help with branch management?

When a pivot requires a new issue, the skill recommends a specific branch naming format (type/ID-description) to keep your Git history aligned with your project management tool.

Does it track why a change was made?

Yes, it specifically includes logic to add notes explaining the pivot, such as 'Pivoted from X to Y because...', ensuring a clear audit trail for the team.

协作工具

Manages project scope changes and development pivots by synchronizing real-time coding shifts with Linear issues.

PM Pivot is a specialized workflow skill for Claude Code that detects when development work diverges from the original project plan. It identifies mid-feature direction changes, scope expansions, or fundamental approach shifts, then surfaces these discrepancies to the user. The skill automates the administrative overhead of project management by recommending and executing the best path forward—whether that involves updating the current issue, canceling old tasks in favor of new ones, or splitting complex work into multiple tickets—ensuring that your project management tool always reflects the reality of your codebase.
