Reference guide to 9 prioritization frameworks with formulas, when-to-use guidance, and templates — RICE, ICE, Kano, MoSCoW, Opportunity Score, and more.

  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Comparing frameworks like RICE vs ICE
  • Learning how different prioritization approaches work

What it does

Prioritization Frameworks is an agent skill from phuryn/pm-skills. Reference guide to 9 prioritization frameworks with formulas, when-to-use guidance, and templates — RICE, ICE, Kano, MoSCoW, Opportunity Score, and more. Use when selecting a prioritization method, comparing frameworks like RICE vs ICE, or learning how different prioritization approaches work.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Product & Project Management, covering Prioritization frameworks. 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

  • Selecting a prioritization method
  • Comparing frameworks like RICE vs ICE
  • Learning how different prioritization approaches work

Example prompts

  • “/prioritization-frameworks”

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):

    • docs.google.com
    • productcompass.pm
    • drive.google.com

    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

Prioritization Frameworks loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 379 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~80
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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.

Prioritization Frameworks Reference

A reference guide to help you select and apply the right prioritization framework for your context.

Core Principle

Never allow customers to design solutions. Prioritize problems (opportunities), not features.

Opportunity Score (Dan Olsen, The Lean Product Playbook)

The recommended framework for prioritizing customer problems.

Survey customers on Importance and Satisfaction for each need (normalize to 0–1 scale).

Three related formulas:

  • Current value = Importance × Satisfaction
  • Opportunity Score = Importance × (1 − Satisfaction)
  • Customer value created = Importance × (S2 − S1), where S1 = satisfaction before, S2 = satisfaction after

High Importance + low Satisfaction = highest Opportunity Score = best opportunities. Plot on an Importance vs Satisfaction chart — upper-left quadrant is the sweet spot. Prioritizes customer problems, not solutions.

ICE Framework

Useful for prioritizing initiatives and ideas. Considers not only value but also risk and economic factors.

  • I (Impact) = Opportunity Score × Number of Customers affected
  • C (Confidence) = How confident are we? (1-10). Accounts for risk.
  • E (Ease) = How easy is it to implement? (1-10). Accounts for economic factors.

Score = I × C × E. Higher = prioritize first.

RICE Framework

Splits ICE's Impact into two separate factors. Useful for larger teams that need more granularity.

  • R (Reach) = Number of customers affected
  • I (Impact) = Opportunity Score (value per customer)
  • C (Confidence) = How confident are we? (0-100%)
  • E (Effort) = How much effort to implement? (person-months)

Score = (R × I × C) / E
