SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Phase 0-8 strategy mapping requires alignment on a single thesis and clear commitment. This skill generates three mutually-exclusive futures grounded in research, each with a love-letter and a concrete next move for the agent.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Grounded futures: three mutually-exclusive paths that execute one thesis, each with its own love-letter and next move for your agent.
  • Phase-anchored analysis: ties futures to the current state and Phase 4 grounding to produce a defensible strategy map.
  • Visualization-ready output: provides structured frontmatter blocks and a human-readable map for rapid decision-making.

Quick Start

Invoke the improbably futures skill with a repo path or inline pitch to generate three mutually exclusive futures and a strategy map.

FAQPage Schema
What is scenario planning in product strategy and when do I need it?

Scenario planning generates mutually exclusive futures to test a single thesis. You need it when aligning stakeholders on a defensible strategy map and committing to a clear direction based on grounded research.

How do I map mutually exclusive futures for product vision decision-making?

Generate three paths executing one strategy thesis, each with a love-letter rationale and a concrete next move for the agent, producing a visualization-ready strategy map for decision-making.

Can I generate a strategy map from an inline product pitch?

Yes, you can generate a strategy map from an inline pitch or a repo path. The skill reads current project state and Phase 4 research patterns to output grounded futures and actionable steps.

What is the best way to visualize product strategy decisions from a repo path?

Generate structured frontmatter blocks alongside a human-readable map. This output grounds futures in Phase 4 research and supports rapid visualization and decision-making.

Do I need Phase 4 research patterns to anchor product strategy mapping?

Phase 4 research patterns are needed to anchor product strategy mapping. The skill ties futures to current project state and Phase 4 grounding to produce a defensible strategy map.

Why does scenario planning require mutually exclusive futures instead of a single roadmap?

Scenario planning requires mutually exclusive futures to force clear commitment to a single thesis. Generating three distinct paths prevents ambiguity and ensures the strategy map drives decisive action.
