Advertising strategies for online placement based on the Transtheoretical Model of Change. Covers the 5 stages of audience awareness and ad categories for each stage.

Business model creativity triggers for reducing costs and generating revenue. Based on Jobs to Be Done frameworks from Strategyn to adapt and experiment with new models.

[stelow] Structural critique for codebases. Accepts a directory of source code and evaluates architecture, data flow, API contracts, performance, theming, responsive patterns, and AI slop in code — then generates a classified gap report. Part of stelow (pre-implementation codebase review) but usable standalone. For codebases with visual UI, use stelow-product-ux-critique instead.

[stelow] Self-contained coding standards for product planning. Universal principles (KISS, DRY, LoB, SoC, Fail Fast, YAGNI, file/function size limits). Use when generating or reviewing code within any product planning context.

[stelow] Complete expert in the short-cycle product learning method, based on the e-book "Guide to Creating Products with Short Learning Cycles" by calionauta. Use this skill whenever the user asks about: idea validation, customer discovery, product experimentation, jobs to be done, pricing strategies, business models, marketing channels, early adopters, MVP, product-market fit, pre-sales, launch strategies, product innovation, product lifecycle, building customer trust, marketplace, open source as strategy, or any concept related to creating and validating digital products with low risk and fast learning. This skill contains ALL the method details — do not skip any detail.

[stelow] Strategic product evolution and innovation exploration inspired by evolutionary systems thinking, novelty search, stepping-stones theory, and adaptive product ecosystems. Activate when: - product strategy feels too objective-driven or roadmap-rigid - teams are prematurely optimizing toward fixed outcomes - exploring innovation, experimentation, or long-term adaptability - evaluating product direction beyond short-term metrics - prioritization discussions feel shallow or disconnected - teams need better framing for experimentation and discovery - discussing ecosystems, platforms, adaptability, or emergent behavior - exploring feature prioritization through connections and optionality - discussing product resilience, flexibility, or future evolution

[stelow] Post-implementation execution critique: verify scope completion, implementation quality, NFR coverage, edge cases, doc/tests, produce a gap registry with decision matrix. Supports 4 modes: workflow (spec-tech.md), plan (spec-product.md), context (dir/URL), and standalone (auto-detects via sem diff + git). Falls back to git diff when sem is not installed.

Product health monitoring through signals in tension. Monitor both effectiveness and user well-being by observing tension between success signals and counterbalance signals, focusing on removing unwanted side effects.

[stelow] Interface alternatives exploration skill. Use when generating interface proposals using the 5-archetype library. Produces 1, 3, or 5 proposals depending on appetite, plus hybrid recommendation for Core/Complete. Part of stelow but can be used standalone.

[stelow] Complete set of specialized prompts for Jobs To Be Done (JTBD) analysis and discovery, based on the methodology by calionauta. Use this skill whenever the user wants to perform any kind of JTBD analysis: contextual market segmentation, thinking styles (Indi Young), JTBD discovery, competitor mapping, job actors, situational variables, job map steps, functional needs (desired outcomes), financial needs, or emotional/social jobs. Contains 10 professional prompts ready to run with AI agents. Trigger whenever the user mentions: jobs to be done, JTBD, contextual segmentation, thinking styles, Indi Young, job map, job steps, desired outcomes, user needs, JTBD competitors, job actors, situational variables, emotional jobs, social jobs, or any combination of these terms.

Strategies and tactics for stimulating marketplaces by balancing supply and demand. Covers 19 proven tactics from getting the harder side first to creating urgency through constraints.

Conduct deep, structured market analysis using multiple methodologies (PESTLE, Foresight, Delphi, Wardley Maps). Use this skill whenever the user asks for market analysis, competitive intelligence, industry research, market trends, weekly intelligence reports, or strategic market insights. Also trigger when the user mentions PESTLE, Wardley Maps, Foresight signals, or wants to understand a market, niche, or industry in depth — even if they don't explicitly ask for "market analysis".

The Open Source Paradox — delivering value by giving up control. Explores business models, organizational structures, and strategies for competing in an open-source world.

Generate deep strategic opportunity maps with ranked solutions for any business problem, product idea, or organizational challenge. Use this skill whenever the user wants to explore opportunities, generate product or business ideas, map solutions from a problem or input, prioritize initiatives, or think through organizational and cultural improvements. Also trigger when the user mentions "opportunity mapping", "strategic analysis", "solution generation", "product strategy", or asks "what should we build" or "what can we do about X" — even if they don't use the exact words.

[stelow] Complete product planning workflow: Shape Up -> Interface -> Tech Planning -> Product Critique -> visual review Gate. Includes 8 domain playbooks (Pricing, Trust, Ads, Health, etc)

[stelow] Systematic gap analysis for product plans. Accepts a spec-product.md file and evaluates flows, states, affordances+design quality, data handling, system contracts, compositional quality (purpose-layout alignment), and feasibility — then generates a classified gap report with actionable questions. Part of stelow (`critique` stage) but usable standalone.

Pricing strategies and models for product offerings. Covers exchange bases, consumption control, interest alignment, and perception techniques to formalize value exchange agreements.

Launch promotion strategies using the MAGIC framework. Covers Loss Leader, Gift Card Sale, Limited High-Value Package, and Irresistible Freebie strategies with tactical examples.

[stelow] Reads an approved product plan with typed scopes (feature, optimization, spike, test-*) and routes each scope to its correct executor. Acts as the autonomous overnight "set and forget" orchestrator — the pi equivalent of /goal for approved plans. For test-* scopes, enforces hard blocks (critical-path tests, security gates). Part of stelow but can be used standalone.

[stelow] Shape Up product planning skill. Use when the user wants to shape a product proposal using the Shape Up method. Produces a shaped proposal with problem, solution, scope (IN/OUT), and risks. Part of the stelow but can be used standalone.

[stelow] Technical planning and scope sequencing skill. Generates typed scopes (feature/optimization/spike + test-*), sequences them, and creates goals (see references/cli-tools/goals.md). For software products, also generates testing-strategy.md via stelow-product-testing-ai-code. Part of stelow but can be used standalone.

[stelow] AI-aware testing strategy skill for software products. Generates AI-aware testing plans, security gates, and risk-based coverage targets. Activated automatically when product_type is "software" or "hybrid"; usable standalone. Based on empirical research: AgentAssay (2026), MSR 2026, Veracode 2025, CodeRabbit 2025, LLM4TDD (2023), TDD-with-AI-Agents (2026).

Run post-implementation testing protocol. Triggers when: user says 'test this', 'run tests', 'QA', 'dogfood', 'check quality', user finishes implementing a feature, or when a PR is ready for review. Also triggers on mentions of: test coverage, accessibility audit, WCAG, design review, code review, subagent review, UX quality audit. Covers: parallel review via subagents, UX/UI quality audit (via stelow-product-ux-critique), accessibility check, and browser testing. Part of stelow but usable standalone by stating what needs testing.

Building trust through perception and guarantee mechanisms. Covers ten pillars to materialize trust, guarantee types from unconditional to anti-guarantees, and strategic approaches for different contexts.

[stelow] Full UX critique for visual interfaces. Accepts a live URL, source code directory, or screenshot image. Evaluates accessibility (WCAG AA), Nielsen's 10 heuristics, visual hierarchy, cognitive load, consistency, mobile responsiveness, AI slop, emotional journey, and design personas — then generates a classified gap report. Standalone or integrated into stelow and stelow-product-testing-execution.
