This Skill helps product teams turn scattered or weak product metrics into a disciplined north star framework. It is designed for cases where there is already some notion of value measurement, but the team still lacks a single validated North Star Metric, a focused set of input metrics, meaningful guardrails, and a clear link to product goals.
Ask the agent to use pm-northstar to deepen the existing PMContext metrics into a single NSM with input metrics, guardrails, and a metric tree.

To validate a north star metric, it is checked against seven quality criteria to ensure it is customer-centered, actionable, and avoids vanity or revenue-only proxies. This validation confirms the metric accurately reflects sustainable product value.
The best way to define actionable input metrics and guardrail metrics is to build a metric constellation around a single north star metric. This involves selecting 3-5 actionable input metrics to drive growth and at least 2 guardrail metrics to monitor retention and quality.
To generate a Mermaid metric tree for OKR alignment, map your validated north star metric to its input metrics and guardrails. This visualization clarifies the hierarchical relationship between your NSM, KPIs, and OKRs for cross-functional execution.
No, you cannot use multiple north star metrics for a single product. A disciplined north star framework explicitly rejects multi-NSM definitions, requiring teams to focus on one validated customer-centered metric to maintain clear product strategy alignment.
Yes, you need existing product success metrics or a PMContext before refining a north star metric framework. This Skill requires candidate metrics as input to refine them into a validated NSM system with actionable inputs and guardrails.
