| name | industry-truths |
| description | Define time-horizoned assumptions about your industry (today / 6mo / 12mo) that ground strategic thinking. Use when the user is making roadmap, positioning or investment calls, or says 'what am I assuming about the market'. Also use proactively before a big strategic recommendation. Not for capturing a single decision; use `decision-log`. |
Execution mode
Run inline in the current conversation by default, so this work can see what the
user has already discussed, decided, or settled this session. Do not fork merely
because this skill was selected. Only run in the background when the user
explicitly asks for a background run or the host has already obtained a specific
background-work approval for this run.
Purpose
In rapidly changing industries (especially AI/tech), strategic decisions require grounding in what you believe to be true at different time horizons. This skill helps you define, document, and maintain those assumptions so every ideation session and strategic conversation carries that context.
The Problem
When everything's shifting fast, it's easy to:
- Make bets that won't age well
- Forget key assumptions when ideating
- Build on quicksand instead of informed beliefs
- Lose track of what you believed vs. what actually happened
The solution: A structured file of industry truths across three time horizons (Today, 6 months, 12 months) that travels with your AI context.
Usage
/industry-truths — Create or update your Industry Truths file
/industry-truths review — Review current truths and update based on new data
/industry-truths validate — Compare your truths against what actually happened
Interview Flow
This is an interactive conversation, not a form. The goal is to tease out deeply held beliefs through questions, not just capture bullet points.
