SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Help founders and product leaders rethink a plan to find the 10‑star product, challenge hidden premises, and decide whether to expand, hold, or cut scope so the work ships with maximum impact and minimal regret.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Four review modes: SCOPE EXPANSION (dream big), SELECTIVE EXPANSION (hold scope + cherry-pick), HOLD SCOPE (rigorous hardening), and SCOPE REDUCTION (minimal viable cut).
  • Proactive scope sense: Suggest this review when plans feel timid or the user asks to "think bigger" or questions ambition.
  • Structured interaction: Uses the AskUserQuestion format, repo/system audit steps, and explicit failure/observability checks to produce concrete, testable recommendations.
  • Use Case: Run this on a product roadmap or launch plan to surface missing experiments, required telemetry and runbooks, failure modes, and prioritized expansions to achieve outsized outcomes.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to run a CEO-level review of my product plan and propose scope expansions, reductions, or hardening.

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform a CEO-level strategic review of my product roadmap?

A CEO-level strategic review challenges plan assumptions and recommends scope changes. You interact via prompts to audit roadmaps, surface missing experiments, and produce concrete remediation items for maximum impact.

What is the best way to challenge assumptions and decide whether to expand or cut project scope?

To decide scope changes, apply four review modes: scope expansion, selective expansion, hold scope, and scope reduction. This structured interaction identifies hidden premises and generates testable recommendations to minimize regret.

How do I audit a launch plan to find missing experiments and failure modes?

Auditing a launch plan requires interactive prompts and access to plan text or repository context. The review uses AskUserQuestion-driven decisions to identify required telemetry, runbooks, and failure modes.

Can I review an engineering proposal to check if it is ambitious enough?

Yes, you can review engineering proposals, design briefs, and conversations asking to "think bigger". The review proactively suggests scope expansions to achieve outsized outcomes when plans feel timid.

Does a plan review support hardening scope instead of just expanding it?

Yes, plan review supports a hold scope mode for rigorous hardening. This mode focuses on explicit failure and observability checks to ensure existing work ships with maximum impact rather than expanding features.
