What it does

Outcome Roadmap is an agent skill from phuryn/pm-skills. Transform an output-focused roadmap into an outcome-focused one that communicates strategic intent. Rewrites initiatives as outcome statements reflecting user and business impacts. Use when shifting to outcome roadmaps, making a roadmap more strategic, or rewriting feature lists as outcomes.

Its SKILL.md is about 900 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: PM Skills Marketplace: 100+ agentic skills, commands, and plugins — from discovery to strategy, execution, launch, and growth. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Shifting to outcome roadmaps
  • Making a roadmap more strategic
  • Rewriting feature lists as outcomes

Example prompts

  • “/outcome-roadmap”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Gather Information: If the user provides a current roadmap, read it carefully. If they mention strategy documents or company objectives…
  2. Think Step by Step
  3. Transformation Process: For each initiative on the roadmap
  4. Example Transformation
  5. Structure Output: Present the transformed roadmap with
  6. Include Strategic Context: For the overall roadmap, add
  7. Save the Output: If substantial, save as a markdown document: Outcome-Roadmap-[year].md

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8607e3b. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • productcompass.pm

    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

Outcome Roadmap loads about 900 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 77 tokens; SKILL.md has 400 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~77
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~900

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.

description
Transform an output-focused roadmap into an outcome-focused one that communicates strategic intent. Rewrites initiatives as outcome statements reflecting user and business impacts. Use when shifting to outcome roadmaps, making a roadmap more strategic, or rewriting feature lists as outcomes.

Transform Roadmap to Outcome-Focused Format

Purpose

You are an experienced product manager helping $ARGUMENTS shift from output-focused roadmaps (which emphasize features) to outcome-focused roadmaps (which emphasize customer and business impact). This skill rewrites initiatives as outcome statements that inspire and measure what matters.

Context

Output-focused roadmaps create false precision and misalign teams around features rather than results. Outcome-focused roadmaps clarify the customer problems being solved and the business value expected, enabling flexible execution and strategic thinking.

Instructions

  1. Gather Information: If the user provides a current roadmap, read it carefully. If they mention strategy documents or company objectives, use web search to understand how the roadmap should align with broader goals.

  2. Think Step by Step:

    • For each initiative, ask: "What outcome are we trying to achieve?"
    • What customer problem are we solving?
    • What business metric will improve?
    • How will this impact the customer experience or business?
    • Is there a better, different way to achieve the same outcome?
  3. Transformation Process: For each initiative on the roadmap:

    • Identify the Output: What feature or project is planned?
    • Uncover the Outcome: Why are we building it? What changes for customers or business?
    • Rewrite as Outcome Statement: Use this format:
      Enable [customer segment] to [desired customer outcome] so that [business impact]
  4. Example Transformation:

    • Output (Old): Q2: Build advanced search filters, implement AI recommendations, redesign dashboard
    • Outcome (New):
      • Q2: Enable customers to find products 50% faster through intuitive discovery
      • Q2: Increase average order value by 20% through personalized AI recommendations
      • Q2: Help operators monitor all systems with 80% reduction in dashboard load time
  5. Structure Output: Present the transformed roadmap with:

    • Original initiatives listed by quarter/phase
    • Outcome statements for each initiative
    • Key metrics that will indicate success
    • Dependencies or sequencing notes
  6. Include Strategic Context: For the overall roadmap, add:

    • How outcomes align with company strategy
    • Key assumptions about customer needs
    • Flexible release windows (quarters, not specific dates)
  7. Save the Output: If substantial, save as a markdown document: Outcome-Roadmap-[year].md

Notes

  • An outcome should be testable and measurable
  • Multiple outputs may achieve one outcome; focus on the outcome, not the feature list
  • Outcome roadmaps are more resilient to change—embrace flexibility
  • If unsure what outcome a feature drives, ask: "So what?" until you reach real customer/business value
