pm-resignation
Write a resignation letter that closes a chapter without burning it — short, warm, legally clean, and silent on everything that doesn't belong in a permanent file. Use when asked write my resignation letter, how do I resign professionally, what do I say when I quit, or review my resignation email. Produces the letter itself, the tell-your-manager-first script, the timing plan, and the list of things that must NOT go in writing.
What to give it
▸The basics — role, manager, intended last day, contractual/customary notice period
▸The reason and the temperature — leaving happy, leaving burned, leaving for a rival? The letter stays identical; the *conversation* script changes
▸What's at stake in the exit — unvested equity dates, bonus payment dates, non-compete concerns, references wanted — timing may need to move for these
▸Any special context — remote manager (video call, not email ambush), toxic situation (shorter script, HR cc'd), or counteroffer expected (see [counteroffer-decoder](../counteroffer-decoder/SKILL.md))
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓Letter is ≤5 sentences with zero reasons, grievances, or feedback
✓Effective date is explicit and money-dates were checked before choosing it
✓The verbal conversation is planned before the letter is sent
✓Personal files/contacts handled before the conversation, employer property ready to return — nothing that violates policy
✓Tone reads warm-neutral even for a burned exit
⚠️ What it refuses to do
Do not put reasons in the letter — even good ones; they invite rebuttal and live forever
Do not resign by letter/email alone when a live conversation is possible
Do not vent — the toxic-job letter and the dream-job letter are the same letter
Do not promise transition help you won't deliver — "available for questions through [date]" only if true
Do not pick the last day before checking vesting and bonus dates — politeness is not worth a cliff
