# PM Agent Team Skill > Automated product discovery, strategy analysis, and PRD generation. > Produces a comprehensive PRD before the PDCA Plan phase begins. ## Overview The PM Agent Team applies 8 professional product management frameworks to systematically analyze a feature before implementation begins. This ensures that development is grounded in validated strategy rather than assumptions. ## PM Frameworks The following frameworks are applied across the 4-phase workflow: | # | Framework | Phase | Purpose | |---|-----------|-------|---------| | 1 | Opportunity Solution Tree (OST) | Discovery | Map problem space systematically | | 2 | Teresa Torres' Continuous Discovery | Discovery | Evidence-based opportunity identification | | 3 | JTBD 6-Part Value Proposition | Strategy | Define who, why, and what progress | | 4 | Lean Canvas | Strategy | Validate business model viability | | 5 | User Personas (JTBD-based) | Research | Humanize target segments | | 6 | Competitor Analysis Matrix | Research | Identify differentiation opportunities | | 7 | TAM/SAM/SOM Dual Validation | Research | Size the market with confidence | | 8 | Beachhead Segment + GTM (Moore) | PRD | Define go-to-market strategy | ## 4-Phase Workflow ``` Phase 1: Discovery (OST) Desired Outcome → Opportunities → Solutions → Experiments │ Phase 2: Strategy (VP + Lean Canvas) JTBD 6-Part → Lean Canvas → Key Assumptions │ Phase 3: Research (Personas + Competitors + Market) 3 Personas → 5 Competitors → TAM/SAM/SOM │ Phase 4: PRD Synthesis Beachhead → GTM → 8-Section PRD │ Output: docs/00-pm/{feature}.prd.md ``` ## Usage ### Via PDCA Command ``` /pdca pm {feature-name} ``` This runs the full PM Team workflow for the specified feature and outputs the PRD to `docs/00-pm/{feature-name}.prd.md`. ### Direct Agent Invocation Individual phases can be triggered by mentioning relevant keywords: - **Discovery**: "opportunity analysis", "OST", "customer pain points" - **Strategy**: "value proposition", "lean canvas", "JTBD" - **Research**: "persona", "competitor analysis", "market sizing" - **PRD**: "product requirements", "beachhead", "GTM strategy" ## PDCA Integration The PM Team workflow is a pre-phase that feeds into the PDCA cycle: ``` PM Team → PRD ↓ PDCA Plan → references PRD for requirements ↓ PDCA Design → translates PRD into technical design ↓ PDCA Do → implements the design ↓ PDCA Check → verifies implementation against design ↓ PDCA Act → iterates until quality threshold met ``` ### Handoff After the PRD is generated, the PM lead agent guides the user to: 1. Review the PRD for completeness and accuracy 2. Run `/pdca plan {feature}` to begin the implementation cycle 3. The Plan phase automatically references the PRD as its source document ## Output Structure ``` docs/ 00-pm/ {feature}.prd.md # Complete PRD with all 4 phases ``` The PRD includes all analysis outputs in a single consolidated document: - Discovery analysis (OST map, opportunity ranking) - Strategy analysis (JTBD table, Lean Canvas, assumptions) - Research analysis (personas, competitor matrix, market sizing) - Beachhead selection and GTM strategy - Full 8-section PRD with user stories and acceptance criteria ## Agents | Agent | Role | Model | Temp | |-------|------|-------|------| | pm-lead | Orchestrates 4-phase workflow | gemini-3.1-pro | 0.3 | | pm-discovery | OST analysis | gemini-3.1-pro | 0.5 | | pm-strategy | JTBD + Lean Canvas | gemini-3.1-pro | 0.4 | | pm-research | Personas + Competitors + Market | gemini-3.1-pro | 0.4 | | pm-prd | PRD synthesis + Beachhead + GTM | gemini-3.1-pro | 0.3 |
