Product & Planning
Product & planning agent skills structure the thinking side of building: specs, PRDs, user stories, roadmaps, and prioritization frameworks. Install one and your AI agent produces planning documents with the same rigor and format every time.
-
samarv Skill Curated Discovery Growth EngineDesign and implement a growth mechanism based on peer-to-peer curation rather than black-box algorithms. Use this when launching a new discovery feature, building a two-sided marketplace, or looking to unlock network effects without sacrificing user control.
-
samarv Skill Dual Track Discovery De RiskingA framework for running simultaneous discovery and delivery tracks to de-risk high-stakes product ideas. Use this when your team is stuck on a "feature treadmill," when you need to innovate on high-risk features without stopping delivery, or when planning a roadmap that balances "big swings" with predictable updates.
-
samarv Skill Gist Evidence Guided DevelopmentA meta-framework to move product teams from opinion-based decision making to evidence-guided execution. Use this when stakeholder debates are stuck on opinions, when roadmaps feel like "feature factories" disconnected from results, or when you need to justify pausing a high-effort project to run lower-cost validation.
-
samarv Skill Market Driven Feedback SynthesisA framework for shifting product focus from internal execution to external market reality. Use this when defining a new product strategy, performing quarterly roadmap prioritization, or when you feel "stuck" in internal politics and scrum management.
-
samarv Skill Proactive Assumption ChallengingA framework for product leaders to validate their thinking by seeking out friction, empathizing with stakeholder constraints, and intentionally breaking mental models. Use this when a project feels "too smooth" without debate, when entering a high-stakes technical market, or when encountering misalignment with engineering or design.
-
samarv Skill Product Operations System DesignEstablishes a product operations function to streamline cross-functional alignment, manage customer feedback loops, and optimize the product development lifecycle. Use this when PMs are overwhelmed by internal stakeholder requests, when product launches lack organizational readiness, or when customer data is siloed across departments.
-
samarv Skill Product Strategy Stack AlignmentA 5-level framework to connect company mission to daily execution. Use this when your team is struggling to prioritize between two similar features, when there is a disconnect between high-level goals and the roadmap, or when you need to "debug" why specific product goals are not being met.
-
samarv Skill Empowered Product Team TransitionShift a product squad from a "feature factory" (shipping output) to an "empowered team" (solving problems). Use this when you are handed a rigid roadmap of features, when engineers feel like "order-takers," or when product launches fail to move business metrics.
-
samarv Skill Marginal User Growth OptimizationA framework for accelerating growth by identifying and unblocking the "marginal user"—the person on the cusp of conversion—and the "worst-case user" who reveals systemic friction. Use it when conversion rates plateau, during international expansion, or when prioritizing a growth roadmap.
-
samarv Skill Opportunity Solution Tree MappingA visual framework to align product discovery with business outcomes. Use this when shifting from a feature-factory output model to outcome-based goals, when prioritizing a messy backlog, or when needing to communicate product strategy to stakeholders.
-
samarv Skill Decision Importance PrioritizationA framework for classifying product decisions based on impact and reversibility. Use this when you feel like a bottleneck for your team, when you have a massive backlog of choices to make, or when you need to justify spending weeks of research on a single high-stakes problem.
-
samarv Skill High Impact Product PrioritizationIdentify and scope high-value product bets by bypassing early estimation traps. Use this when your roadmap is cluttered with incremental tasks, when teams are "playing it safe" due to technical uncertainty, or when engineering estimates are stalling innovative ideas.
-
samarv Skill New Business Opportunity FilteringA rigorous framework for vetting new product lines or startups. Use this when evaluating a potential pivot, selecting between multiple roadmap opportunities, or validating a new business model before committing resources.
-
samarv Skill Product Strategy Operator PlaybookA 5-phase procedural playbook to develop a product strategy and build organizational alignment. Use this when the team doesn't understand "the why" behind a roadmap, when resources are spread too thin, or when shifting a product from incremental improvements to a new growth trajectory.

-
iamwaqargulzar Bundle Launch Retro AnalyzerUse when the user asks to "run a launch retro / post-mortem", "compare launch results vs targets by channel", or "decide what to keep or kill for the next launch"; produces a structured D1/W1/M1 retrospective — a per-channel actual-vs-target table (UTM-attributed own analytics as the truth column, platform self-reported numbers as reference, every figure labeled Measured / User-provided / Estimated), a 5-Whys chain on the single largest miss, keep / kill / change decisions per channel, 3-5 actionable learnings for the next launch, and an outcome snapshot submitted to the launch registry. Not for return math (CPA / ROI) — use roi-calculator; not for the stakeholder-facing report writeup — use report-generator; not for a metric deep-dive — use performance-analyzer. 发布复盘/渠道归因/5-Whys/keep-kill
