What problem does it solve?
Day 5 of a Design Sprint generates hours of raw customer interview observations, and teams often leave without a clear, evidence-backed decision. This Skill structures Friday's synthesis so the sprint closes with a documented build, iterate, pivot, or stop call instead of ambiguous notes.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Bundled Friday Artifact: Produces per-customer observation notes, best quotes, a scorecard grid mapping sprint questions against customers, observed patterns in four buckets, silent hot takes, and a Decider summary.
- Scorecard Mechanic: Applies explicit day-end decision rules (Validated, Invalidated, Inconclusive) based on Y/N/partial counts across the 5-customer cohort, with Decider override reasoning.
- Decider Checkpoint: Ends with a signed checkpoint capturing the call, highest-confidence learning, most important revision, and the next artifact with an owner.
- Use Case: After Thursday's prototype passes trial run, run five 50-60 minute customer interviews, then use this Skill to synthesize observations into the scorecard and capture the Decider's build call plus the follow-up PRD assignment.
Quick Start
Use the design sprint test-and-score skill to synthesize today's five customer interviews into a scorecard and Decider summary for our prototype.
