At a glance

A skill your agent uses when validating product opportunities, mapping assumptions, planning discovery sprints, or testing problem-solution fit before committing delivery resources.

  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python3
  • Mapping assumptions

What it does

Product Discovery is an agent skill from alirezarezvani/claude-skills. Use when validating product opportunities, mapping assumptions, planning discovery sprints, or testing problem-solution fit before committing delivery resources.

Its SKILL.md is about 830 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/discovery-frameworks.md` and `scripts/assumption_mapper.py`).

It sits in Product & Project Management. 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

  • Validating product opportunities
  • Mapping assumptions
  • Planning discovery sprints
  • Testing problem-solution fit before committing delivery resources

Example prompts

  • “/product-discovery”

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 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    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

Product Discovery loads about 828 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 361 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~828
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.3k

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.

Product Discovery

Run structured discovery to identify high-value opportunities and de-risk product bets.

When To Use

Use this skill for:

  • Opportunity Solution Tree facilitation
  • Assumption mapping and test planning
  • Problem validation interviews and evidence synthesis
  • Solution validation with prototypes/experiments
  • Discovery sprint planning and outputs

Core Discovery Workflow

  1. Define desired outcome
  • Set one measurable outcome to improve.
  • Establish baseline and target horizon.
  1. Build Opportunity Solution Tree (OST)
  • Outcome -> opportunities -> solution ideas -> experiments
  • Keep opportunities grounded in user evidence, not internal opinions.
  1. Map assumptions
  • Identify desirability, viability, feasibility, and usability assumptions.
  • Score assumptions by risk and certainty.

Use:

bash
python3 scripts/assumption_mapper.py assumptions.csv
  1. Validate the problem
  • Conduct interviews and behavior analysis.
  • Confirm frequency, severity, and willingness to solve.
  • Reject weak opportunities early.
  1. Validate the solution
  • Prototype before building.
  • Run concept, usability, and value tests.
  • Measure behavior, not only stated preference.
  1. Plan discovery sprint
  • 1-2 week cycle with explicit hypotheses
  • Daily evidence reviews
  • End with decision: proceed, pivot, or stop

Opportunity Solution Tree (Teresa Torres)

Structure:

  • Outcome: metric you want to move
  • Opportunities: unmet customer needs/pains
  • Solutions: candidate interventions
  • Experiments: fastest learning actions

Quality checks:

  • At least 3 distinct opportunities before converging.
  • At least 2 experiments per top opportunity.
  • Tie every branch to evidence source.

Assumption Mapping

Assumption categories:

  • Desirability: users want this
  • Viability: business value exists
  • Feasibility: team can build/operate it
  • Usability: users can successfully use it

Prioritization rule:

  • High risk + low certainty assumptions are tested first.

Problem Validation Techniques

  • Problem interviews focused on current behavior
  • Journey friction mapping
  • Support ticket and sales-call synthesis
  • Behavioral analytics triangulation

Evidence threshold examples:

  • Same pain repeated across multiple target users
  • Observable workaround behavior
  • Measurable cost of current pain

Solution Validation Techniques

  • Concept tests (value proposition comprehension)
  • Prototype usability tests (task success/time-to-complete)
  • Fake door or concierge tests (demand signal)
  • Limited beta cohorts (retention/activation signals)

Discovery Sprint Planning

Suggested 10-day structure:

  • Day 1-2: Outcome + opportunity framing
  • Day 3-4: Assumption mapping + test design
  • Day 5-7: Problem and solution tests
  • Day 8-9: Evidence synthesis + decision options
  • Day 10: Stakeholder decision review

Tooling

scripts/assumption_mapper.py

CLI utility that:

  • reads assumptions from CSV or inline input
  • scores risk/certainty priority
  • emits prioritized test plan with suggested test types

What does Product Discovery need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Product Discovery needs Python for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (python3). Our summary lists: Python 3.

Does Product Discovery access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Product Discovery safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.

What licence does Product Discovery use?
