At a glance

Orchestrates positioning, problem discovery, solution exploration, and roadmap planning into one multi-week strategy process.

  • Works in 6 steps: Positioning & Market Context (Week 1,… → Problem Framing & Validation (Week 1,… → Solution Exploration (Week 2, Days 1-3) → …
  • Needing validated direction before committing a team to execution
  • SKILL.md covers Purpose, Input, Key Concepts and Application, plus 9 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Four phases run in sequence: positioning and market context define who you serve and how you differ, problem discovery and validation frames and tests customer problems through research, solution exploration generates and prioritizes opportunities by impact, and roadmap planning sequences the resulting epics and releases. The process typically spans two to four weeks with multiple touchpoints rather than a single workshop, and an existing artifact, a positioning draft or a discovery doc already in hand, lets it skip straight to a later phase instead of starting from zero.

When your agent uses it

  • Needing validated direction before committing a team to execution
  • Resolving two competing roadmap visions before an exec review
  • Refreshing stale strategy across positioning, discovery, and roadmap at once

Example prompts

  • “Run a strategy session for our analytics add-on, flat adoption, exec review in 4 weeks.”
  • “We have two competing roadmap visions, help us land on one.”
  • “Take our existing positioning draft straight into roadmap planning.”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Positioning & Market Context (Week 1, Days 1-2)
  2. Problem Framing & Validation (Week 1, Days 3-5)
  3. Solution Exploration (Week 2, Days 1-3)
  4. Prioritization & Roadmap Planning (Week 2, Days 4-5)
  5. Stakeholder Alignment & Communication (Week 3)
  6. Execution Planning (Week 4)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1b5a524. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    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

End-to-End Product Strategy Session loads about 4.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,557 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~49
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.2k

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
