Continuous Discovery Habits
Implements Teresa Torres' continuous discovery habits for weekly customer contact, opportunity solution trees, and assumption testing. Use when building discovery processes, conducting user research, validating assumptions, or establishing product trio workflows.
When to Use
- The request matches the skill description: Implements Teresa Torres' continuous discovery habits for weekly customer contact, opportunity solution trees, and assumption testing. Use when building discovery processes, conducting user research, validating assumptions, or establishing product trio workflows.
- The task needs the implementation patterns, examples, validation checks, or edge cases listed in the topic map.
- The work would benefit from the complete guidance preserved in
references/full-guidance.md.
Core Workflow
- Confirm the request matches this skill's trigger, scope, and risk profile.
- Use the topic map to identify the relevant pattern, checklist, or example before writing detailed guidance or code.
- Load
references/full-guidance.md when implementation details, examples, anti-patterns, validation checks, or edge cases are needed.
- Apply only the relevant guidance instead of loading or repeating the entire reference by default.
- Verify the result against any validation checks, limitations, security notes, or platform constraints in the reference.
