What problem does it solve?
Turning a repeated ad-hoc chain of product management skills into a durable, reusable workflow requires careful design work: checking overlap with existing workflows, sequencing skills with real handoffs, and updating many cross-cutting files. This Skill guides contributors from a workflow idea to a complete, reviewable Workflow Implementation Packet without touching canonical files.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Overlap Analysis with Why Gate: Scans the live
_workflows/ directory, estimates coverage overlap against every existing workflow, and blocks redundant builds unless specific failure scenarios justify the new workflow.
- Sequence Design with Validation: Resolves every step to an installed skill by exact name, refuses Tier-3 maintenance skills, dispatch skills, and nested workflows, and authors explicit consume/produce handoffs between steps.
- Staged Packet Generation: Writes a draft workflow file, a draft slash command, and a PACKET.md with decision rationale, cross-cutting checklist, and promotion steps into
_staging/workflows/<name>/ for human review.
- Use Case: After a
/chain run of measure-experiment-results -> discover-stakeholder-summary proves reusable, hand the chain expression to this Skill to produce a durable quarterly-business-review workflow with its own /workflow-quarterly-business-review command.
Quick Start
Ask the assistant to turn your repeated chain of PM skills into a durable workflow, for example: "Create a workflow for quarterly business reviews chaining experiment results, stakeholder summary, stakeholder update, and meeting agenda."
