SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams create new AI skills without guessing what good documentation looks like. It replaces vague skill authoring with a test-driven workflow that first observes how an agent fails without the skill, then writes targeted instructions to correct those failures, and finally hardens the result with pressure testing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • RED-GREEN-REFACTOR workflow for skills: Captures baseline agent failures first, then turns those concrete mistakes into a compliant SKILL.md.
  • Anthropic and PMSkill compliance: Enforces required frontmatter, structured sections, failure modes, anti-pattern blacklist, references, and test prompts.
  • Pressure-test hardening: Checks whether the drafted skill still holds up under time pressure, authority pressure, and sunk-cost bias.
  • Use Case: When a product team wants to add a new reusable skill such as interview note structuring, experiment analysis, or another PM workflow, this Skill provides a disciplined authoring process instead of producing a generic instruction file.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to use pm-skillauthor to create a new skill for a specific capability by first recording baseline failures, then drafting SKILL.md against those failures, and finally running refactor pressure tests.

Frequently Asked Questions about pm-skillauthor

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I write agent skills using a test-driven workflow?

Agent skills can be authored using a RED-GREEN-REFACTOR workflow that records baseline agent failures, converts them into targeted SKILL.md instructions, and hardens the result with refactor pressure testing.

What is TDD for prompt design and skill authoring?

TDD for skill authoring replaces vague documentation by first observing how an agent fails without the skill, then writing targeted instructions to correct those specific failures, and finally hardening the result with pressure testing.

How do I create compliant Anthropic skills for product management workflows?

Compliant Anthropic skills require specific frontmatter, structured sections, failure modes, anti-pattern blacklists, references, and test-prompts artifacts to ensure proper routing triggers and failure handling for reusable PM workflows.

What's the best way to harden AI skills against authority pressure and sunk-cost bias?

Pressure-test hardening checks whether a drafted skill holds up under time pressure, authority pressure, and sunk-cost bias, ensuring the final SKILL.md documentation remains robust in real-world product team scenarios.

Can I use this skill authoring process for any reusable PM workflow?

This process applies to reusable skill development for product management and agent workflows, helping teams add capabilities like interview note structuring or experiment analysis through a disciplined authoring process.

Why should I record baseline failures before writing SKILL.md instructions?

Recording baseline failures first captures concrete agent mistakes, which are then converted into targeted SKILL.md instructions, ensuring the documentation corrects actual problems rather than producing generic instructions.
