Interview-driven automation design tool. This skill should be used when the user wants to design a new skill, agent, automation, shortcut, or any other automatable workflow. Runs a coverage-driven JTBD interview (text or voice), then exports a one-page markdown spec plus an SVG design map.
Terminal-first JTBD engine for founders and product people. Interview fast, kill jargon, capture real switching forces (Push/Pull/Habit/Anxiety), score opportunities, and export structured artifacts (JSON + one-pager + messaging angles + GTM brief). Use when the user says "help me figure out what to build", "analyze these customer reviews", "what are people actually hiring this for", "I need messaging for my product", "turn this interview into insights", "what should I prioritize", or any variation of articulating what a project does, why it matters, who it's for, or converting interview/review/transcript signal into a decision-grade brief. Also triggers on "describe my project", "JTBD", "jobs to be done", "switching forces", or "mine these reviews".
Plan, conduct, and synthesize high-signal user interviews and produce a User Interview Pack (recruiting plan, screener, discussion guide, notes template, synthesis report). Use for user interview, customer interview, discovery interview, JTBD switch interview, concept interview.
Design a detailed value proposition using a 6-part JTBD template — Who, Why, What before, How, What after, Alternatives. Use when creating a value proposition, analyzing customer value delivery, or articulating why customers should choose your product.
The Jobs-to-be-Done framework as applied product methodology. Job statements, struggling moments, hire and fire criteria, the difference between feature-thinking and job-thinking. Honest about where JTBD adds clarity (discovery, prioritization, positioning) and where it becomes performative ritual (job-statement workshops that do not drive decisions, persona-theater disguised as JTBD). Triggers on jobs-to-be-done, JTBD, job statements, struggling moments, hire criteria, fire criteria, switch triggers, functional emotional social jobs, outcome-driven innovation. Also triggers when a team is over-relying on feature-request lists or persona archetypes that do not drive product decisions, when a positioning conversation needs the framing JTBD provides, or when discovery is producing outputs that do not connect to product strategy.
Provides Jobs-to-be-Done and psychographic research frameworks for brand identity work. Auto-activates during brand positioning, voice development, messaging, and strategy phases. Use when discussing target audience, customer research, JTBD, jobs to be done, four forces, push pull anxiety habit, emotional jobs, social jobs, functional jobs, limbic types, VALS segments, psychographics, or customer motivations.
Use this skill when applying Jobs-to-be-Done, building opportunity solution trees, mapping assumptions, or validating product ideas. Triggers on product discovery, JTBD, jobs-to-be-done, opportunity solution trees, assumption mapping, experiment design, prototype testing, and any task requiring product discovery methodology.
Market positioning strategy using the April Dunford framework, enriched with JTBD discovery, Moore positioning statement, and Neumeier's Onliness Test. Produces a complete positioning document, positioning statement, competitive alternatives map, and market category analysis. Use when the user wants to define or refine their market positioning, find their unique position, differentiate from competitors, craft a positioning statement, choose a market category, or figure out "how should we position this product." Triggers for "positioning", "how to position", "market position", "differentiation strategy", "positioning statement", "competitive positioning", "category strategy", "where do we fit in the market", "how are we different", "unique value proposition", or any request to define, sharpen, or rethink positioning. Works standalone — no prior startup-design or startup-competitors session needed, but leverages their output if available.
Use when validating that a real-world problem exists before defining JTBD or writing code. Triggers on "is there demand for this?", "how do I validate this idea?", "should we build this?", or before any MVP scope decision. Combines multiple signal sources to produce a Problem Statement with confidence level.
Analyze what customers truly need by discovering the "job" they hire your product to do. Use when the user mentions "customer discovery", "why customers churn", "what job does this solve", "competing against luck", or "product-market fit". Covers JTBD interviews, competition analysis, and jobs-oriented roadmaps. For product positioning, see obviously-awesome. For rapid validation, see design-sprint. Trigger with 'jobs', 'to', 'be'.
Design holistic user experiences using systems thinking, service design, and psychological principles. Triggers on: UX design, user experience, journey map, service blueprint, user flow, wireframe, accessibility, WCAG, design critique, heuristic review, cognitive load, design thinking, holistic design, JTBD, jobs to be done, user research synthesis.
How to author a content brief that actually guides a writer (human or AI) to produce a piece that ranks, converts, or both. Per-piece editorial brief: target keyword and cluster, search intent, audience and JTBD, heading structure, entity coverage for AEO/GEO, internal linking strategy, success criteria. The middle path between thin briefs (a keyword and a deadline) and thick briefs (a 4-page document nobody reads). Triggers on content brief, brief the writer, brief the article, brief authoring, content brief template, brief audit, per-piece brief, editorial brief, target keyword brief, search intent brief. Also triggers when briefing a human writer or an AI agent on a single content piece.
