PM Essentials

Route a fuzzy request to the right skill in this library. Use when the user is unsure which skill fits, asks 'which skill should I use for X', describes a task without naming a skill, or when a request could plausibly match several skills. Produces a best-fit recommendation with the inputs to gather, a runner-up with the tie-breaker, and a workflow recipe when the job spans multiple skills.

Create a Product Requirements Document following proven PM template structure. Use when asked to write a PRD, product spec, feature specification, or requirements document for a new feature or product. Produces a complete PRD with problem statement, user stories, functional requirements, technical considerations, and success metrics.

Structure and format meeting notes following PM best practices. Use when asked to create meeting notes, format discussion notes, capture action items, or document decisions from any meeting type. Produces structured notes with decisions, action items (owner + deadline), open questions, and next steps.

Record decisions the way good judgment compounds — the reasoning, the alternatives, the probabilities, and what would change your mind, written down BEFORE the outcome arrives, then reviewed against reality. Use when asked help me think through this decision, start a decision journal, review my past decision, or why do I keep making the same mistake. Produces the pre-registered decision entry, the review-date trigger, and the outcome review that separates bad luck from bad process.

Study 3-5 documents the user actually shipped and distil a compact style card — so every skill writes in their voice, not the model's. Use when asked to learn my writing style, make outputs sound like me, build a voice profile, or when a user complains AI drafts don't sound like them. Produces a style card (rhythm, register, structure habits, pet phrases, banned moves) saved to the Brain where every other skill reads it.

Create concise executive stakeholder updates using the BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front) framework. Use when asked to write a status update, progress report, project communication, or executive briefing for leadership or stakeholders. Produces a BLUF-led update with status, key metrics, risks, upcoming milestones, and decisions needed — readable in under 2 minutes.

Analyze competitors and create competitive landscape documentation with feature matrices, positioning maps, and strategic recommendations. Use when asked to analyze competitors, create competitive analysis, compare features with competitors, build a competitive landscape, track competitive positioning, or prepare sales battlecard inputs. Produces structured competitor profiles, feature comparison matrix, win/loss analysis, and prioritised strategic recommendations. For a one-off teardown of a single rival use competitor-teardown; for a recurring market briefing use competitive-intelligence-monitor.

Produce properly-formatted tracked changes for a Word document. Use when asked to redline a document, suggest edits to a contract or document, create tracked changes for review, or mark up a document with proposed revisions. Produces a complete redline with insertions, deletions, and margin comments that can be applied to the source document. Best used with Claude Opus 4.7 or newer for reliable tracked changes handling.

Analyze and synthesize user research findings into structured, actionable insights. Use when given user research data, interview transcripts, survey results, or user feedback that needs to be analyzed and summarised. Produces a themed synthesis with prevalence data, supporting quotes, pain points analysis, feature request prioritisation, and recommended next steps. For interview transcripts specifically use user-interview-synthesis instead.

Pull the action items and decisions out of meeting notes or a transcript — each with an owner, a due date, and enough context to become a ticket — plus the open questions. Use when asked to extract action items, turn these notes into tasks, who owns what from this meeting, or pull the to-dos from this transcript. Produces the ticket-ready action list (owner + due + context), the decisions made, the open questions with no owner yet, and a flag for any 'someone should…' that never got assigned.
