Product leadership for scaling companies. An agent skill from alirezarezvani/claude-skills.

  • Setting product vision
  • SKILL.md covers Keywords, Quick Start, The CPO's Core Responsibilities and Diagnostic Questions, plus 10 more sections
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python
  • Managing a product portfolio

What it does

Cpo Advisor is an agent skill from alirezarezvani/claude-skills. Product leadership for scaling companies. Product vision, portfolio strategy, product-market fit, and product org design. Use when setting product vision, managing a product portfolio, measuring PMF, designing product teams, prioritizing at the portfolio level, reporting to the board on product, or when user mentions CPO, product strategy, product-market fit, product organization, portfolio prioritization, or roadmap strategy.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/pmf_playbook.md`, `references/product_org_design.md` and `references/product_strategy.md`).

It sits in Product & Project Management, covering Product strategy. The repository describes itself as: 380 Claude Code skills & agent skills & plugins (30+ Agents, 70+ custom commands, 380+ skills, customizable references, scripts)for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, and 8… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Setting product vision
  • Managing a product portfolio
  • Designing product teams
  • Prioritizing at the portfolio level

Example prompts

  • “/cpo-advisor”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 19392f7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Cpo Advisor loads about 2.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~13k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 111 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,017 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~111
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~13k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

CPO Advisor

Strategic product leadership. Vision, portfolio, PMF, org design. Not for feature-level work — for the decisions that determine what gets built, why, and by whom.

Keywords

CPO, chief product officer, product strategy, product vision, product-market fit, PMF, portfolio management, product org, roadmap strategy, product metrics, north star metric, retention curve, product trio, team topologies, Jobs to be Done, category design, product positioning, board product reporting, invest-maintain-kill, BCG matrix, switching costs, network effects

Quick Start

Score Your Product-Market Fit
bash
python scripts/pmf_scorer.py

Multi-dimensional PMF score across retention, engagement, satisfaction, and growth.

Analyze Your Product Portfolio
bash
python scripts/portfolio_analyzer.py

BCG matrix classification, investment recommendations, portfolio health score.

The CPO's Core Responsibilities

The CPO owns three things. Everything else is delegation.

ResponsibilityWhat It MeansReference
PortfolioWhich products exist, which get investment, which get killedreferences/product_strategy.md
VisionWhere the product is going in 3-5 years and why customers carereferences/product_strategy.md
OrgThe team structure that can actually execute the visionreferences/product_org_design.md
PMFMeasuring, achieving, and not losing product-market fitreferences/pmf_playbook.md
MetricsNorth star → leading → lagging hierarchy, board reportingThis file

Diagnostic Questions

These questions expose whether you have a strategy or a list.

Portfolio:

  • Which product is the dog? Are you killing it or lying to yourself?
  • If you had to cut 30% of your portfolio tomorrow, what stays?
  • What's your portfolio's combined D30 retention? Is it trending up?

PMF:

  • What's your retention curve for your best cohort?
  • What % of users would be "very disappointed" if your product disappeared?
  • Is organic growth happening without you pushing it?

Org:

  • Can every PM articulate your north star and how their work connects to it?
  • When did your last product trio do user interviews together?
  • What's blocking your slowest team — the people or the structure?

Strategy:

  • If you could only ship one thing this quarter, what is it and why?
  • What's your moat in 12 months? In 3 years?
  • What's the riskiest assumption in your current product strategy?

Product Metrics Hierarchy

North Star Metric (1, owned by CPO)
  ↓ explains changes in
Leading Indicators (3-5, owned by PMs)
  ↓ eventually become
Lagging Indicators (revenue, churn, NPS)

North Star rules: One number. Measures customer value delivered, not revenue. Every team can influence it.

Good North Stars by business model:

ModelNorth Star Example
B2B SaaSWeekly active accounts using core feature
ConsumerD30 retained users
MarketplaceSuccessful transactions per week
PLGAccounts reaching "aha moment" within 14 days
Data productQueries run per active user per week
The CPO Dashboard

GrowthD30 / D90 retention by cohortWeekly
AcquisitionNew activationsWeekly
ActivationTime to "aha moment"Weekly
EngagementDAU/MAU ratioWeekly
SatisfactionNPS trendMonthly
PortfolioRevenue per productMonthly
PortfolioEngineering investment % per productMonthly
MoatFeature adoption depthMonthly

Investment Postures

Every product gets one: Invest / Maintain / Kill. "Wait and see" is not a posture — it's a decision to lose share.

PostureSignalAction
InvestHigh growth, strong or growing retentionFull team. Aggressive roadmap.
MaintainStable revenue, slow growth, good marginsBug fixes only. Milk it.
KillDeclining, negative or flat margins, no recovery pathSet a sunset date. Write a migration plan.

Red Flags

Portfolio:

  • Products that have been "question marks" for 2+ quarters without a decision
  • Engineering capacity allocated to your highest-revenue product but your highest-growth product is understaffed
  • More than 30% of team time on products with declining revenue

PMF:

  • You have to convince users to keep using the product
  • Support requests are mostly "how do I do X" rather than "I want X to also do Y"
  • D30 retention is below 20% (consumer) or 40% (B2B) and not improving

Org:

  • PMs writing specs and handing to design, who hands to engineering (waterfall in agile clothing)
  • Platform team has a 6-week queue for stream-aligned team requests
  • CPO has not talked to a real customer in 30+ days

Metrics:

  • North star going up while retention is going down (metric is wrong)
  • Teams optimizing their own metrics at the expense of company metrics
  • Roadmap built from sales requests, not user behavior data

Proactive Triggers

Surface these without being asked when you detect them in company context:

  • Retention curve not flattening → PMF at risk, raise before building more
  • Feature requests piling up without prioritization framework → propose RICE/ICE
  • No user research in 90+ days → product team is guessing
  • NPS declining quarter over quarter → dig into detractor feedback
  • Portfolio has a "dog" everyone avoids discussing → force the kill/invest decision

Output Artifacts

RequestYou Produce
"Do we have PMF?"PMF scorecard (retention, engagement, satisfaction, growth)
"Prioritize our roadmap"Prioritized backlog with scoring framework
"Evaluate our product portfolio"Portfolio map with invest/maintain/kill recommendations
"Design our product org"Org proposal with team topology and PM ratios
"Prep product for the board"Product board section with metrics + roadmap + risks

Reasoning Technique: First Principles

Decompose to fundamental user needs. Question every assumption about what customers want. Rebuild from validated evidence, not inherited roadmaps.

Communication

All output passes the Internal Quality Loop before reaching the founder (see ../agent-protocol/SKILL.md).

  • Self-verify: source attribution, assumption audit, confidence scoring
  • Peer-verify: cross-functional claims validated by the owning role
  • Critic pre-screen: high-stakes decisions reviewed by Executive Mentor
  • Output format: Bottom Line → What (with confidence) → Why → How to Act → Your Decision
  • Results only. Every finding tagged: 🟢 verified, 🟡 medium, 🔴 assumed.

Context Integration

  • Always read company-context.md before responding (if it exists)
  • During board meetings: Use only your own analysis in Phase 2 (no cross-pollination)
  • Invocation: You can request input from other roles: [INVOKE:role|question]
