What it does

Okr Design is an agent skill from yonatangross/orchestkit. OKR trees, KPI dashboards, North Star Metric, leading/lagging indicators, and experiment design. Use when setting team goals, defining success metrics, building measurement frameworks, or designing A/B experiment guardrails.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 10 other files, including reference files (for example `references/okr-workshop-guide.md`, `rules/_sections.md` and `rules/metrics-experiment-design.md`). Compatibility notes: Claude Code 2.1.277+

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering OKRs and executive reporting, Product metrics and Experimental design. The repository describes itself as: The Complete AI Development Toolkit for Claude Code. 106 skills, 36 agents, 171 hooks. Install ork for stable (v9.x), or ork-alpha for the v10 line, which ships daily. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Setting team goals
  • Defining success metrics
  • Building measurement frameworks
  • Designing A/B experiment guardrails

Example prompts

  • “/okr-design”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Claude Code 2.1.277+
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, WebFetch, WebSearch

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e4ff8d9. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • WebFetch
    • WebSearch

    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.

  • Compatibility

    Claude Code 2.1.277+

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Okr Design loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 448 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~59
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

OKR Design & Metrics Framework

Structure goals, decompose metrics into KPI trees, identify leading indicators, and design rigorous experiments.

OKR Structure

Objectives are qualitative and inspiring. Key Results are quantitative and outcome-focused — never a list of outputs.

Objective: Qualitative, inspiring goal (70% achievable stretch)
+-- Key Result 1: [Verb] [metric] from [baseline] to [target]
+-- Key Result 2: [Verb] [metric] from [baseline] to [target]
+-- Key Result 3: [Verb] [metric] from [baseline] to [target]
markdown
## Q1 OKRs

### Objective: Become the go-to platform for enterprise teams

Key Results:
- KR1: Increase enterprise NPS from 32 to 50
- KR2: Reduce time-to-value from 14 days to 3 days
- KR3: Achieve 95% feature adoption in first 30 days of onboarding
- KR4: Win 5 competitive displacements from [Competitor]

KPI Tree & North Star

Decompose the top-level metric into components with clear cause-effect relationships.

Revenue (Lagging — root)
├── New Revenue = Leads × Conv Rate          (Leading)
├── Expansion   = Users × Upsell Rate        (Leading)
└── Retained    = Existing × (1 - Churn)     (Lagging)
North Star + Input Metrics Template
markdown
## Metrics Framework

North Star: [One metric that captures core value — e.g., Weekly Active Teams]

Input Metrics (leading, actionable by teams):
1. New signups — acquisition
2. Onboarding completion rate — activation
3. Features used per user/week — engagement
4. Invite rate — virality
5. Upgrade rate — monetization

Lagging Validation (confirm inputs translate to value):
- Revenue growth
- Net retention rate
- Customer lifetime value
North Star Selection by Business Type
BusinessNorth Star ExampleWhy
SaaSWeekly Active UsersIndicates ongoing value delivery
MarketplaceGross Merchandise ValueCaptures both buyer and seller sides
MediaTime spentEngagement signals content value
E-commercePurchase frequencyRepeat = satisfaction

See rules/metrics-kpi-trees.md for the full revenue and product health KPI tree examples.


Leading vs Lagging Indicators

Every lagging metric you want to improve needs 2-3 leading predictors.

markdown
## Metric Pairs

Lagging: Customer Churn Rate
Leading:
  1. Product usage frequency (weekly)
  2. Support ticket severity (daily)
  3. NPS score trend (monthly)

Lagging: Revenue Growth
Leading:
  1. Pipeline value (weekly)
  2. Demo-to-trial conversion (weekly)
  3. Feature adoption rate (weekly)
IndicatorReview CadenceAction Timeline
LeadingDaily / WeeklyImmediate course correction
LaggingMonthly / QuarterlyStrategic adjustments

See rules/metrics-leading-lagging.md for a balanced dashboard template.


Metric Instrumentation

Every metric needs a formal definition before instrumentation.

markdown
## Metric: Feature Adoption Rate

Definition: % of active users who used [feature] at least once in their first 30 days.
Formula: (Users who triggered feature_activated in first 30 days) / (Users who signed up)
Data Source: Analytics — feature_activated event
Segments: By plan tier, by signup cohort
Calculation: Daily
Review: Weekly

Events:
  user_signed_up  { user_id, plan_tier, signup_source }
  feature_activated { user_id, feature_name, activation_method }

Event naming: object_action in snake_case — user_signed_up, feature_activated, subscription_upgraded.

See rules/metrics-instrumentation.md for the full metric definition template, alerting thresholds, and dashboard design principles.


Experiment Design

Every experiment must define guardrail metrics before launch. Guardrails prevent shipping a "win" that causes hidden damage.

markdown
## Experiment: [Name]

### Hypothesis
If we [change], then [primary metric] will [direction] by [amount]
because [reasoning based on evidence].

### Metrics
- Primary: [The metric you are trying to move]
- Secondary: [Supporting context metrics]
- Guardrails: [Metrics that MUST NOT degrade — define thresholds]

### Design
- Type: A/B test | multivariate | feature flag rollout
- Sample size: [N per variant — calculated for statistical power]
- Duration: [Minimum weeks to reach significance]

### Rollout Plan
1. 10% — 1 week canary, monitor guardrails daily
2. 50% — 2 weeks, confirm statistical significance
3. 100% — full rollout with continued monitoring

### Kill Criteria
Any guardrail degrades > [threshold]% relative to baseline.
Show full SKILL.md (193 more words)Show less
Pre-Launch Checklist
  • Hypothesis documented with expected effect size
  • Primary, secondary, and guardrail metrics defined
  • Sample size calculated for minimum detectable effect
  • Dashboard or alerts configured for guardrail metrics
  • Staged rollout plan with kill criteria at each stage
  • Rollback procedure documented

See rules/metrics-experiment-design.md for guardrail thresholds, performance and business guardrail tables, and alert SLAs.


Common Pitfalls

PitfallMitigation
KRs are outputs ("ship 5 features")Rewrite as outcomes ("increase conversion by 20%")
Tracking only lagging indicatorsPair every lagging metric with 2-3 leading predictors
No baseline before setting targetsInstrument and measure for 2 weeks before setting OKRs
Launching experiments without guardrailsDefine guardrails before any code is shipped
Too many OKRs (>5 per team)Limit to 3-5 objectives, 3-5 KRs each
Metrics without ownersEvery metric needs a team owner

  • prioritization — RICE, WSJF, ICE, MoSCoW scoring; OKRs define which KPIs drive RICE impact
  • product-frameworks — Full PM toolkit: value prop, competitive analysis, user research, business case
  • product-analytics — Instrument and query the metrics defined in OKR trees
  • write-prd — Embed success metrics and experiment hypotheses into product requirements
  • market-sizing — TAM/SAM/SOM that anchors North Star Metric targets
  • competitive-analysis — Competitor benchmarks that inform KR targets
