What product-strategy-session does

This skill guides a product strategy session through six phases over 2-4 weeks. It helps define target customers, frame their problems, test assumptions, and connect possible solutions to a product roadmap.

Early work uses a positioning workshop, proto-personas, and Jobs-to-be-Done. The next stage includes a problem-framing canvas and a structured problem statement for a PRD or roadmap. Context supplied when starting the skill is reused, so the agent can avoid asking the same questions again.

Bring a product or product line and a strategic question when possible. Executive backing matters here: without it, the agreements from the session may not hold.

What it helps with

  • define product positioning
  • write a customer problem statement for a PRD
  • test customer assumptions through discovery
  • align a team around product direction
  • turn priorities into a product roadmap

Example prompts for the agent

  • Run product-strategy-session for a new product and help define its positioning.
  • Start product-strategy-session: adoption is flat and we have two roadmap options.
  • Use product-strategy-session to frame the customer problem for a future PRD.
