(NS) Gated PM workflow — clarify, structure, RICE/WSJF, sprint plan, PERT/Monte Carlo forecast; risk, status, meeting, OKR. Also commercial budget (orçamento, Function Points, proposta comercial; COSMIC/CFP only if asked), triple productivity delivery schedule (cronograma P100/P85/P50, prazo, when we deliver), and requirements enricher / grill-me for GitLab issues or chat. Use on transcripts, backlog, timeline, delivery date, status, orçamento, cotação, cronograma, enrich requirements — even if PM is unnamed. On "help" / "exemplos", list example prompts only. Do NOT use for coding, SDD requirements generation, or GitLab issue execution.

Help

On help / what-can-I-do / examples:
  1. Match human language (Language matching).
  2. Example prompts only — no phase, no clarification, no artifacts.
  3. Catalog below (adapt wording; keep skill/acronym names):
CapabilityExample prompt
Clarify + structure from transcript
Here's our discovery call transcript: [...]. Structure the requirements.
Prioritize backlog
Prioritize this backlog with RICE/WSJF against OKR: [...].
Sprint schedule
We've confirmed ranking. Build the sprint schedule.
Delivery forecast (story-level)
When do we deliver? Three-point estimates: [...].
Triple productivity schedule
I have FP and productivity — give me P100/P85/P50 delivery dates.
Commercial budget
Need a commercial budget / orçamento for: [...].
Enrich / grill-me requirements
Grill-me on this scope before we plan: [...].
Risk / sprint health
Are we on track? Here's velocity and WIP: [...].
Status report
Write a status report for the board — sprint N, …
Meeting digest
Meeting notes — just the action items: '[…transcript…]'
Compliance checklist

Close: one line — paste input or pick row.
Nested workflows: router hit

— read full file, follow it (own

). No evals.
Commercial FP / client quote:
references/ns-commercial-budget/workflow.md
. Default = APF (IFPUG CPM latest; SISP latest if CPM does not cover). COSMIC CFP only when human asks. Other methods only when human names them. Phases 1–5 = delivery forecast (RICE / sprint / PERT).
Triple productivity schedule (FP × h/FP, P100/P85/P50):
references/ns-delivery-schedule/workflow.md
. Phase 5 = story-level PERT only.

Phase 0 — Intake

User paste unstructured input (transcript, email, voice note):
  1. Ack 1–2 sentences.
  2. No structure yet. Route Phase 1.
  3. Read
    references/00-clarification.md
    . Ask batched questions + artifact-persistence (
    references/11-artifact-persistence.md
    ).

Gate protocol (mandatory between phases)

After pipeline phase 1–5:
  1. Compact summary — 5–10 bullets.
  2. Persist — if enabled (Phase 0/1), write/update matching
    docs/<project-slug>/*.md
    +
    roadmap.md
    (
    references/11-artifact-persistence.md
    ).
  3. Gate question — one ask:
    • Phase 1: "Ready to structure requirements, or should I clarify anything else?"
    • Phase 2: "Confirm to proceed to prioritization, or adjust stories?"
    • Phase 3: "Confirm ranking to build the sprint schedule?"
    • Phase 4: "Confirm schedule to run the delivery forecast?"
    • Phase 5: "P85 delivery date is [X]. Anything to adjust?"
  4. Wait user confirm before next phase.
Never dump Phases 2–5 one response. Never skip Phase 1 on first raw transcript (unless "quick mode" / "proceed with assumptions"). Never infer hard structured data (team/capacity, backlog effort, three-point) — send phase fill-in template, stop.

Core pipeline (Phases 1–5)

Quick mode

User say "quick mode", "skip questions", "proceed with assumptions":
  • Phase 1: OKR + deadline only; rest
    [ASSUMPTION]
    .
  • Phase 2: quick structuring (stories + open questions + GitLab cards).
  • Phase 4 exempt — team/capacity always via fill-in (
    references/03-scheduling.md
    ), never assumed.
  • Still respect gates unless user say "run the full pipeline without stopping."

Anti-patterns

Read
references/anti-patterns.md
before any Phase 2 User Story.

GitLab MCP

Use configured GitLab MCP. Unavailable: say so, use user data. Never invent tool names or setup. No mutation (
create_issue
/
update_issue
) without explicit human confirm.

Language matching (mandatory)

Detect language of human's latest message (not skill files, not pasted English docs alone). Use that language for:
  • Chat replies, gate questions, clarifications, fill-in templates
  • Phase summaries + on-demand reports
  • Persisted
    docs/<project-slug>/*.md
    /
    roadmap.md
Rules:
  1. Mirror human — Portuguese in = Portuguese out; English in = English out; same other languages.
  2. Mixed — human language A + paste language B: reply/report in A; quote B only for fidelity.
  3. Switch — human change language mid-chat: switch now.
  4. Keep as-is — proper nouns, IDs, script/CLI names, JSON keys, GitLab labels, acronyms (RICE, WSJF, P50/P85/P95, OKR).
  5. Default — ambiguous (emoji-only, single proper noun): English.

Global behavioral constraints

  • Never invent stakeholders, systems, integrations, SLAs, metrics not in input.
  • Never infer team/capacity, backlog effort, three-point — send fill-in (
    references/0N-*.md
    ), stop.
  • Never compute RICE, WSJF, Monte Carlo, flow metrics, OKR rubric in LLM — run script.
  • Never dump multiple pipeline phases one response.
  • No gold plating: every output line traces input or prior phase.
  • Close analytical drafts with human-language equivalent of: "⚠️ Requires human review before entering a sprint."
  • Always Language matching for user-facing output.
