Product Planning Sub-Skill
Communication: User's language. Docs: English.
Purpose
Product planning from ideation to launch: MVP/MLP scoping, roadmaps, discovery, launch planning.
Parent: faion-product-manager
Context Discovery
Auto-Investigation
Detect existing product planning artifacts:
| Signal | How to Check | What It Tells Us |
|---|---|---|
| Roadmap | Glob("**/roadmap*.md") or Glob("**/.aidocs/roadmap.md") |
Roadmap exists |
| MVP/MLP docs | `Grep("MVP\ | MLP\ |
| User stories | Glob("**/stories/*") or Grep("As a .* I want") |
User story mapping |
| OKRs | `Grep("OKR\ | Objective\ |
| Product specs | Glob("**/spec*.md") or Glob("**/.aidocs/*/spec.md") |
Product specifications |
| Launch plans | Glob("**/launch*.md") or Grep("go-to-market") |
Launch planning |
| Discovery notes | Glob("**/discovery/*") or Grep("Five Whys") |
Discovery process documented |
| Feature backlog | Glob("**/.aidocs/backlog/feature-*") |
Feature queue |
Read existing planning artifacts:
- roadmap.md for product timeline
- Feature specs for scope
- OKRs or goals
- User story maps or epics
