SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps product teams rigorously challenge a PMContext before committing to execution. It identifies load-bearing assumptions, exposes weak logic, and turns vague risks into falsifiable failure conditions and cheap validation tests.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Red-team assumption attacks: Separates critical assumptions from decorative ones, then uses a steelman-then-attack method to challenge only the assumptions that could kill the plan if wrong.
  • Structured confidence interrogation: Reviews PMContext across eight dimensions such as user scenario, substitutes, metrics, constraints, technical stack, and hidden assumptions to surface confidence gaps.
  • Decision-focused output: Produces a ranked Top 5 list of fatal gaps, each with a Fails if condition, a kill criterion, and the cheapest test to run this week.
  • Use cases: Use it before roadmap reviews, PRD sign-off, strategy debates, launch readiness checks, or whenever a team wants a hard-nosed red-team critique of product logic.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to use pm-grill on your PMContext to identify the top fatal assumptions, challenge them, and propose the cheapest falsification tests.

Frequently Asked Questions about pm-grill

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I red-team a product strategy to find fatal assumptions before launch?

Red-team product strategy by extracting load-bearing assumptions, steelmanning them, attacking their strongest form, and defining falsifiable failure conditions to prevent flawed execution.

How do you stress-test PRD logic to expose hidden risks and weak measurement criteria?

Stress-test PRD logic by applying an eight-dimension confidence interrogation across user scenarios, substitutes, metrics, constraints, and technical stack to surface confidence gaps.

What is the best way to validate critical product assumptions without high testing costs?

Validate critical assumptions by ranking fatal gaps by impact likelihood and test cost, then recommending cheap kill-criterion-based tests to run this week to falsify them.

Can I use assumption testing for roadmap debates and launch readiness checks?

Assumption testing works for roadmap debates and launch readiness checks by separating critical assumptions from decorative ones and challenging only those that could kill the plan.

Do I need a PMContext to perform a decision review and identify failure conditions?

Decision review requires reading PMContext to identify load-bearing assumptions, expose weak logic, and turn vague risks into falsifiable failure conditions and cheap validation tests.
