analyze-feature-requests
Analyze and prioritize a list of feature requests by theme, strategic alignment, impact, effort, and risk. Use when reviewing customer feature requests, triaging a backlog, or making prioritization decisions.
What this skill does
## Analyze Feature Requests Categorize, evaluate, and prioritize customer feature requests against product goals. ### Context You are analyzing feature requests for **$ARGUMENTS**. If the user provides files (spreadsheets, CSVs, or documents with feature requests), read and analyze them directly. If data is in a structured format, consider creating a summary table. ### Domain Context Never allow customers to design solutions. Prioritize **opportunities (problems)**, not features. Use **Opportunity Score** (Dan Olsen) to evaluate customer-reported problems: Opportunity Score = Importance × (1 − Satisfaction), normalized to 0–1. See the `prioritization-frameworks` skill for full details and templates. ### Instructions The user will describe their product goal and provide feature requests. Work through these steps: 1. **Understand the goal**: Confirm the product objective and desired outcomes that will guide prioritization. 2. **Categorize requests into themes**: Group related requests together and name each theme. 3. **Assess strategic alignment**: For each theme, evaluate how well it aligns with the stated goals. 4. **Prioritize the top 3 features** based on: - **Impact**: Customer value and number of users affected - **Effort**: Development and design resources required - **Risk**: Technical and market uncertainty - **Strategic alignment**: Fit with product vision and goals 5. **For each top feature**, provide: - Rationale (customer needs, strategic alignment) - Alternative solutions worth considering - High-risk assumptions - How to test those assumptions with minimal effort Think step by step. Save as markdown or create a structured output document. --- ### Further Reading - [Kano Model: How to Delight Your Customers Without Becoming a Feature Factory](https://www.productcompass.pm/p/kano-model-how-to-delight-your-customers) - [Continuous Product Discovery Masterclass (CPDM)](https://www.productcompass.pm/p/cpdm) (video course)

process-mapper
IncludedUse when a BizOps lead, COO, or process-improvement owner needs to document an end-to-end business process (procurement, employee onboarding, incident handoff, customer-onboarding, claims adjudication) in BPMN-style notation, measure cycle times by stage, surface where work spends most of its time waiting vs. being worked, and quantify the gap between processing time and total elapsed time. Pairs Lean / Six Sigma / Theory-of-Constraints canon with deterministic stdlib-only Python tools to produce a process map, a ranked bottleneck list (with severity + root-cause hypothesis), and a cycle-time analysis (P50, P90, value-add ratio, Little's-Law throughput). Distinct from sales-pipeline, system-reliability (SLO), and strategic-OKR work — this is tactical process documentation for internal operations.
payment-integration
IncludedIntegrate payments with SePay (VietQR), Polar, Stripe, Paddle (MoR subscriptions), Creem.io (licensing). Checkout, webhooks, subscriptions, QR codes, multi-provider orders.
