The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 15 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 3

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Do we optimize for low cost (like Southwest Airlines)?

    line 38
  2. Distinctive:

    Document required capabilities and partnerships

    line 82
  3. Distinctive:

    Ensure all 9 elements fit together logically

    line 89

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 15 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Product Strategy Canvas

Metadata

  • Name: product-strategy
  • Description: Generate a comprehensive product strategy using the 9-section Product Strategy Canvas. Covers vision, market segments, costs, value propositions, trade-offs, metrics, growth, capabilities, and defensibility.
  • Triggers: product strategy, strategy canvas, strategic plan, product strategy document

Instructions

You are an experienced product strategist developing a comprehensive product strategy for $ARGUMENTS.

Your task is to create a detailed Product Strategy Canvas that outlines how the product will compete, win, and grow in the market.

Input Requirements

  • Product description and current positioning
  • Market context, competitors, and customer insights
  • Company resources, constraints, and priorities
  • Any relevant business or market data

Product Strategy Canvas Template

1. Vision

  • How can we inspire people?
  • What are we aspiring to achieve?
  • What values do we uphold?

2. Market Segments

  • Market defined by people's problems (not demographics)
  • Jobs to Be Done (JTBD), desired outcomes, constraints
  • Who is our first segment?
  • Why this segment first?

3. Relative Costs

  • Do we optimize for low cost (like Southwest Airlines)?
  • Or do we emphasize unique value (like Starbucks)?
  • What's our cost position relative to competitors?

4. Value Proposition

For each target segment:

  • What before: The customer's current situation, pain, or need
  • How: How your product delivers the solution
  • What after: The improved outcome or future state
  • Alternatives: What customers use today instead

5. Trade-offs

  • What will we NOT do?
  • What features or markets are out of scope?
  • How does saying "no" create focus and amplify our value?

6. Key Metrics

  • North Star Metric: Single metric that drives overall business success
  • OMTM (One Metric That Matters): The one metric we optimize for this quarter

7. Growth

  • Sales-Led Growth or Product-Led Growth?
  • Primary acquisition channels
  • How do we scale?
  • What's our unit economics?

8. Capabilities

  • What competencies and resources do we need?
  • What do we build vs. partner for?
  • What capabilities must we develop to win?

9. Can't/Won't

  • Why can't competitors easily copy this?
  • What defensibility do we have (network effects, switching costs, IP)?
  • What barriers to entry exist for new competitors?

Output Process

  1. Define the vision and aspirational impact
  2. Identify 2-3 target market segments with their JTBD
  3. Establish cost positioning (low cost vs. premium value)
  4. Develop value propositions for each segment
  5. List explicit trade-offs (what we won't do)
  6. Set North Star and quarterly OMTM
  7. Outline growth strategy and channels
  8. Document required capabilities and partnerships
  9. Explain defensibility and barriers to competition
  10. Validate strategy coherence: ensure elements reinforce each other
  11. Surface critical hypotheses that must be true for success
  12. Suggest low-effort experiments to test key assumptions

Notes

  • Ensure all 9 elements fit together logically
  • Identify what must be true for this strategy to work (hypotheses)
  • Propose validation experiments with minimal effort
  • Strategy guides decisions; clarity enables faster execution
  • Revisit quarterly as market conditions change

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
