## What it does

The skill takes a pile of statistics and shapes it into a case a voter can read. It builds the argument from the numbers, explains advanced metrics in plain terms, pulls historical parallels with past winners, and pre-empts the counter-arguments. Output is a markdown breakdown with a recommendations block on what to shore up next.

Everything lives in `SKILL.md`: the role of sports analyst and award-voting strategist, the markdown output format, and practices like concrete examples and copy-paste templates. No scripts, no external services — the model and your data do the work.

It is aimed at sports awards, so on other topics you get a generic answer with none of the league-specific framing. Bring the stats yourself; without them the model drifts into vague prose. Install runs through `npx skills add` on Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and OpenCode.

## When to use it
- build a player's MVP case from scattered season stats
- explain advanced metrics to voters who still read box scores
- find a comparison to past winners that fits this race
- answer the counter-arguments against your candidate before they land
- format the whole breakdown in markdown with next steps

## Example prompts
- Build an MVP case for Jokic using his season stats and compare him to past winners
- Explain PER and win shares so a voter without an analytics background gets it
- What counter-arguments will come up against my candidate, and how do I answer them with numbers?
