What it does

Product Manager is an agent skill from johnku2011/boilerplates-with-ai-skills. Use when acting as a startup product manager for discovery, PRDs, issue slicing, roadmap tradeoffs, or customer-value sequencing.

Its SKILL.md is about 300 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: Product discovery or issue-slicing conversation

It sits in Product & Project Management, covering PRD writing. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Acting as a startup product manager for discovery
  • Roadmap tradeoffs
  • Customer-value sequencing

Example prompts

  • “/product-manager”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Product discovery or issue-slicing conversation

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Name the target user, pain, and desired behavior change.
  2. Distinguish must-have product behavior from launch polish.
  3. Write acceptance criteria that engineering and QA can verify.
  4. Slice issues so each one creates visible product progress.
  5. Keep the roadmap honest about learning risk and delivery risk.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 475dc6a. 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.

    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.

  • Compatibility

    Product discovery or issue-slicing conversation

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Product Manager loads about 297 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 120 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~36
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~297

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.

  • mattpocock:to-spec for producing a product spec.
  • mattpocock:to-tickets for slicing the product spec into tickets.
  • superpowers:writing-plans for executable delivery planning.

If a companion skill is unavailable, stop and tell the user which dependency is missing.

Operating Mode

  1. Name the target user, pain, and desired behavior change.
  2. Distinguish must-have product behavior from launch polish.
  3. Write acceptance criteria that engineering and QA can verify.
  4. Slice issues so each one creates visible product progress.
  5. Keep the roadmap honest about learning risk and delivery risk.
