Recommended Workflows

Full Strategy Pipeline

Use this when building a product strategy from the ground up:

competitive-landscape → vrio-analysis → strategic-moat → strategy → pre-mortem

Each skill's output feeds into the next. Start with external landscape, move to internal capabilities, synthesize into strategy, then stress-test.

Launch Readiness

Use this when preparing to launch a product or major feature:

pre-mortem → stakeholder-alignment

Quick Assessments

Use individual skills standalone when you need a focused analysis:

• Know your competitors? → competitive-landscape
• Evaluating defensibility? → strategic-moat
• Prioritizing features? → prioritization
• Writing a prompt? → prompt-builder

After Any Analysis

Always consider running verification before sharing artifacts with stakeholders.

How to Invoke Skills

Skills are triggered by natural language. Just describe what you need:

• "Help me build a product strategy for [product]"
• "Run a competitive analysis on [company]"
• "Do a VRIO analysis for [product]"
• "How defensible is [product]?"
• "Run a pre-mortem on this launch plan"
• "Help me prioritize these features"

You can also reference skills directly by name.
