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.
-
hollandkevint Skill Data Consumer DiscoveryDiscover what internal data consumers actually need. Adapted Mom Test and JTBD for data teams. Use when conducting user research, interviewing stakeholders, gathering consumer requirements, running discovery sessions, or when someone asks "what do they need?" or "how do I figure out what to build?"
-
hollandkevint Skill Research Synthesis DataConvert raw discovery notes into structured insights using atomic research methods adapted for data products. Use when synthesizing findings, reviewing evidence, summarizing research, writing problem briefs, or when someone asks "what did we learn?" or "what does the evidence say?"
-
hollandkevint Skill Data Team Operating ModelTeam structure and operating rhythm for data product teams. Product squads, Shape Up 6-week cycles, handoff contracts, and role assignments by lifecycle stage. Use when organizing a data team, planning data product development cycles, defining roles and responsibilities, improving team handoffs, or when someone asks "how should we structure our data team?" or "why do we keep losing context between discovery and delivery?"
-
iansteitz1-eng Bundle Skill Manifest GenGenerate cross-harness discovery manifests (openai.json · gemini.json · mcp.json + README) so an aria-skill is findable from OpenAI/Codex/Grok, Google Gemini, and MCP clients (VS Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop) — not just Claude Code. Derived deterministically from SKILL.md + the script's argparse, so manifests never drift. --all sweeps the repo, --check is a CI drift gate, --force overwrites. Use when Ian says "generate manifests", "MCP marketplace", "discoverable in VS Code/Cursor", "backfill manifests", or after adding a skill.
-
julianoczkowski Skill Pm PrdAssemble a full, market-driven Product Requirements Document (PRD) the Pragmatic way — problem-before-solution, evidence-based, persona-first. Use when the PM asks for a PRD, product spec, feature doc, "write the requirements doc", or "put it all together for the team". Pulls in existing personas, positioning, market problems, requirements and use scenarios if present, and gathers anything missing inline. Produces a Product Requirements Document as a Markdown or Word .docx artifact.
-
julianoczkowski Bundle Pm CopilotProduct-management copilot based on the Pragmatic Institute Framework (Foundations, Focus, Build). Use this as the entry point whenever a product manager wants to work through building a product or feature the market-driven way — e.g. "I want to build a feature", "help me plan this product", "where do I start", "I have an idea for X". It figures out where the PM is in the Pragmatic journey, guides them through the right stages (market research, personas, positioning, strategy, requirements, roadmap, launch), and produces a client-ready artifact (Markdown or Word .docx) at every stage. Also use it to explain the Pragmatic Framework or choose which PM artifact to create.
-
julianoczkowski Skill Pm Market ProblemsRun Pragmatic Institute market discovery and validate real market problems before anything gets built. Use when a PM says "I want to build a feature", "do market research", "talk to customers", "discovery", "validate this idea", "is this problem real", "NIHITO", or "who should I interview". Enforces the outside-in rule: build only for problems that are urgent, pervasive, and that the market will pay to solve. Produces a Market Discovery Document and a Market Problems Table as a Markdown or Word .docx artifact.
-
julianoczkowski Skill Pm Product RoadmapBuild a Pragmatic Institute Product Roadmap that communicates vision, direction and priorities over time — a plan, not a commitment. Use when the PM asks for a "roadmap", "product vision", "what's coming", "phases", "themes over time", or wants to align stakeholders on direction (as distinct from a dated release plan). Frames outcomes and market problems over time-frames, not features on dates. Produces a Product Roadmap as a Markdown or Word .docx artifact.
-
julianoczkowski Skill Pm Product StrategyBuild a Pragmatic Institute Strategy Matrix — a forced-choice 4×4 that decides who to win and what to build over a set time frame, and surfaces alignment between the product team and leadership. Use when the PM asks about product strategy, "where should we invest", "what should we build for whom", focus, prioritizing markets, or avoiding a spread-too-thin roadmap. Produces a Strategy Matrix as a Markdown or Word .docx artifact.
-
julianoczkowski Skill Pm Stakeholder CommunicationBuild a Pragmatic stakeholder communication plan and status updates that expose risk early and speak each audience's language. Use when the PM asks to manage stakeholders, plan comms, write an exec/status update, a project status report, a steering-committee update, or "keep everyone aligned". Covers the Identify→Analyze→Communicate steps, the Influence×Importance matrix, and the four metric categories. Produces a Stakeholder Communication Plan and a Status Update as a Markdown or Word .docx artifact.

algolia Bundle Algobot CLIUse for anything AI/agent/conversational built on Algolia: algobot CLI, Agent Studio, RAG systems, conversational product discovery, genAI content generation from search results (carousels, descriptions, headers), chatbots or recommendation agents using Algolia as retrieval, config-as-code workflows, multi-environment deploy (dev/staging/prod), memory and personalization, MCP tool integrations, conversation history / GDPR retention, or adding a chat widget alongside InstantSearch. Trigger on: "algobot", "Agent Studio", "RAG with Algolia", "conversational experience", "AI agent" + Algolia, "genAI carousel", "chat widget", or building AI features on top of Algolia search. Do NOT use for raw index ops (records, synonyms, settings) — use algolia-cli. Do NOT use for pure frontend search UI (InstantSearch, autocomplete) with no AI/agent layer.
-
algolia Bundle Algolia AutocompleteBuild and review Algolia Autocomplete and query suggestion experiences. Use when planning or implementing typeahead, query suggestions, recent searches, popular searches, federated autocomplete panels, product/content suggestions, detached mobile mode, plugins, keyboard navigation, insights events, or Autocomplete integration with InstantSearch. For net-new search or ecommerce builds, start with algolia-discovery-planning, which loads algolia-search-implementation so source strategy, data contract, and event taxonomy decisions are visible before autocomplete is marked ready. Do NOT use for full search results pages, browse pages, filters, pagination, or current refinements; use algolia-instantsearch-ui instead. Do NOT use for choosing between Algolia UI libraries; use algolia-ui-libraries. Do NOT use as the source of truth for current Autocomplete package APIs; use the official instantsearch skill and current docs alongside this customer-readiness skill.
-
algolia Bundle Algolia Instantsearch UIBuild and review Algolia InstantSearch experiences in JavaScript, React, Vue, Angular (via InstantSearch.js; Angular InstantSearch is deprecated), or compatible frontend stacks. Use when planning or reviewing search results pages, browse/category pages, routing, widgets, filters, facets, sort-by, pagination, infinite hits, current refinements, insights middleware, SSR, or UI-state synchronization. For net-new search UI builds, start with algolia-discovery-planning, which loads algolia-search-implementation so data contract and event taxonomy decisions are visible before UI is marked ready. Do NOT use for autocomplete/typeahead experiences before the user commits to a results page; use algolia-autocomplete instead. Do NOT use for choosing between Algolia UI libraries; use algolia-ui-libraries. Do NOT use as the source of truth for current framework APIs or code-level implementation details; use the official instantsearch skill and current docs alongside this customer-readiness skill.
-
algolia Bundle Algolia Discovery PlanningSTART HERE for any non-trivial Algolia work — building, adding, migrating, redesigning, auditing, or configuring search, browse, autocomplete, indexing, relevance, recommendations, personalization, merchandising, events, or analytics. Invoke this FIRST even when the task already seems scoped or the user names one specific feature (e.g. "add InstantSearch", "build a storefront search"): its job is to map the request to the full Algolia implementation lifecycle and load every companion skill each in-scope phase needs (algolia-search-implementation, algolia-data-modeling, algolia-index-configuration, algolia-ui-libraries, algolia-instantsearch-ui, algolia-autocomplete, algolia-events-insights, algolia-neuralsearch, algolia-agent-studio, algolia-release-qa) rather than jumping straight into a single skill. This skill plans and orchestrates; the focused companion skills and the official Algolia skills execute. Do NOT use for live account inspection or write actions; use algolia-mcp or algolia-cli for those.
-
algolia Bundle Algolia Search ImplementationExecution checklist for net-new Algolia search, browse, autocomplete, ecommerce search, recommendations, personalization, Dynamic Re-Ranking, or search UI builds. Use during a greenfield build to keep data contract, event taxonomy, index configuration, UI, and release QA visible as explicit checkpoints with completion signposts and suggested artifacts, so agents proceed deliberately and document tradeoffs and deferrals. Do NOT use as the entry point for Algolia work; start with algolia-discovery-planning, which maps the request to the lifecycle and loads this skill for net-new builds.

alirezarezvani Skill TriageUse when the user dumps a batch of inputs at once — a pile of emails, a backlog of Slack/Teams messages, a list of asks, meeting action items, a notes brain-dump — and needs it sorted into action. Classifies each item, assigns owner + next step + priority, and flags which need a full /structure brief or a /decide call. Trigger on "/triage", "triage this", "process my inbox", "sort these asks", "clear my backlog", "what do I do with all this".

modiqo Skill Rote RegistryShare rote artifacts to the registry and manage the org around them. Triggers at the schelling-point moment — right after an adapter is first created or a play is crystallized (draft or release) — to check whether the artifact already exists in your orgs, tell you whether you need to push, and (after a push) surface org members and offer to invite others for review or use. Also runs standalone for push/share requests, visibility changes, usage/quotas (plan + quota across all your orgs), invites, member management, and published Play discovery. Use when the user says "push to registry", "share my adapter/play", "publish this", "make this public/private", "change visibility", "find a published play", "show my usage / quota", "invite someone to my org", or "who's in my org". Determines every fact from live `rote` commands — never from memory.
