SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

STRATEGY.md provides a durable, canonical anchor for product direction that downstream skills use for grounding and alignment, ensuring teams stay on a shared track as they ideate, brainstorm, and plan work.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Produces and maintains STRATEGY.md at the repo root as a concise, durable anchor document for problem, approach, users, metrics, and tracks.
  • Supports Phase 0-3 execution: first-run interview with references/interview.md, update runs, and downstream handoff to ce-ideate/ce-brainstorm/ce-plan.
  • Automates grounding for downstream skills by providing a consistent reference document when strategy exists or is created dynamically.

Quick Start

Run ce-strategy to generate or update STRATEGY.md for the current product.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a durable product strategy document to anchor team planning?▼

You can generate a durable product strategy document by running an interactive interview process that organizes problem, approach, users, metrics, and tracks into a concise canonical file. This ensures downstream planning stays aligned.

What is the best way to ground product ideation when a strategy is missing?▼

Grounding product ideation requires a canonical strategy anchor. You can dynamically generate this reference document through a structured interview to ensure brainstorming and planning remain aligned with the core product direction.

How do I update an existing product direction document without losing original alignment?▼

Updating product direction involves running an update pass on your existing strategy document. This modifies the canonical anchor to reflect new metrics and approaches while maintaining a shared track for downstream ideation.

Do I need any specific frameworks to solidify product strategy with repeatable prompts?▼

No specific external frameworks are required. The process uses internal reference templates for interviews and strategy structure to prompt you directly, producing a concise markdown document without additional dependencies.

When should I use a structured strategy template instead of ad-hoc planning?▼

A structured strategy template is needed when starting a new product, updating direction, or grounding downstream planning prompts. It provides a durable canonical anchor that prevents teams from losing alignment during ideation.

Can I use this strategy document to align multiple downstream planning phases?▼

Yes, the generated strategy document acts as a durable canonical anchor for downstream phases. It explicitly supports execution workflows by providing a consistent reference for ideation, brainstorming, and planning tasks.
