SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates unstructured, ad-hoc product planning that often leads to misaligned user needs, unclear MVP scope, and irrelevant success metrics. It replaces guesswork with a proven, structured methodology to ensure every product decision is rooted in real user insights and business viability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 4-Stage Double Diamond Workflow: Guides users through Discover (user research, persona building), Define (pain point prioritization), Develop (solution ideation, MVP scoping), and Deliver (success metrics, execution planning) stages for full product lifecycle coverage.
  • Automated Artifact Generation: Produces standardized, actionable product documents including user persona tables and cards, user journey maps, pain point prioritization matrices, HMW problem statements, MVP scope definitions, and success metric frameworks.
  • Cross-Product Applicability: Works for new product development, existing product iteration, and product repositioning for software, hardware, and service-based products.
  • Use Case Example: If you have a rough idea for a sustainable packaging product, this Skill will guide you through identifying core user personas (e.g., small eco-friendly café owners, large grocery chains), mapping their packaging sourcing journey, prioritizing pain points like cost and supply reliability, defining MVP features, and setting relevant adoption metrics.

Quick Start

Share your rough product idea or current product challenge with the Skill, such as "I want to build a pet grooming booking app for busy urban pet owners", and it will guide you through the full Double Diamond product planning workflow step by step.
