SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes ambiguity about what “success” means by creating a concrete telemetry and measurement plan before you build, so you can verify outcomes instead of guessing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Defines success metrics from your PRD so teams align on what to measure and when.
  • Specifies an event schema (event names, triggers, properties) that instrumentation teams can implement consistently.
  • Plans telemetry destinations and failure signals to ensure you catch errors, drop-offs, and performance issues early.
  • Use case: When your PRD has <TBD> success metrics or there’s disagreement on outcomes, you generate a measurement plan you can hand directly to monitoring implementation.

Quick Start

Run /measure to create .claude/measurement.md from your PRD and produce a ready-to-instrument telemetry and KPI plan.

Frequently Asked Questions about measure

FAQPage Schema
How do I define a telemetry event schema for product analytics instrumentation?

A telemetry event schema specifies event names, triggers, and properties so instrumentation teams can implement product analytics consistently. You define it within a measurement plan to capture KPIs and track feature success verifiably before implementation begins.

What is a telemetry and measurement plan in product development?

A telemetry and measurement plan defines success metrics, event schemas, telemetry destinations, and failure signals to make feature outcomes verifiable. It aligns teams on what to measure and ensures errors, drop-offs, and performance issues are caught early.

How do I plan KPI tracking and failure signals before implementation?

You plan KPI tracking and failure signals by defining success metrics from your PRD and specifying telemetry destinations. This ensures you catch errors, drop-offs, and performance issues early by creating a concrete measurement plan before building the feature.

Can I generate an event schema for PostHog or Sentry from a PRD?

Yes, generating an event schema from your PRD produces a measurement plan that includes event names, triggers, and properties. This schema provides consistent instrumentation guidance for product analytics tools like PostHog or Sentry.

Do I need an existing PRD to define product analytics KPIs?

Yes, you need an existing PRD to define product analytics KPIs. The measurement plan applies to product development scenarios where the PRD success metrics are missing, ambiguous, or need alignment, using the PRD as the input to generate verifiable outcomes.

What is the best way to align teams on feature success metrics before building?

The best way to align teams on feature success metrics is creating a concrete measurement plan before implementation. By defining success metrics, event schemas, and failure signals upfront, teams verify outcomes instead of guessing what success means.
