SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Product teams often track vanity metrics or sprawling dashboards that nobody acts on. This Skill guides you through designing a focused metrics framework — from selecting a North Star metric to defining alert thresholds — so measurement drives decisions instead of noise. ## Core Features & Use Cases - North Star Selection: Identifies and validates a single metric that captures user value delivered, with precise formula, data source, and time window definitions. - Metrics Hierarchy: Maps input metrics, health metrics, and counter-metrics into a causal tree showing how team actions drive business outcomes. - Alert Thresholds & Dashboard Spec: Produces a markdown dashboard specification with green/yellow/red thresholds, review cadences, and implementation notes. - Use Case: A PM launching a new checkout flow uses this Skill to define its North Star (completed checkouts per week), input metrics (cart starts, payment success rate), and red-alert thresholds before launch day. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to set up a metrics dashboard for your product or feature area, for example by saying: set up metrics for our new checkout flow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I choose a North Star metric for my product?▼

A North Star metric should measure user value delivered, act as a leading indicator, and be actionable by teams. Validate candidates against these three criteria, then define the metric precisely with a formula, data source, and time window.

How to set up a product metrics dashboard from scratch?▼

Start by defining one North Star metric, then identify 3-5 input metrics that drive it, 3-5 health metrics that should stay stable, and 1-2 counter-metrics. Assign green/yellow/red alert thresholds and a review cadence to each.

What are counter-metrics and why do they matter?▼

Counter-metrics detect when you are optimizing the wrong way, guarding against Goodhart's Law. For example, if your North Star is daily active users, a counter-metric like session quality prevents empty engagement from inflating the number.

Can I define metrics for a product before launch?▼

Yes, define the metrics framework pre-launch so instrumentation is ready on day one. Note that baselines and thresholds will need calibration after launch once real usage data arrives.

What are the limitations of a metrics dashboard framework?▼

A dashboard spec does not instrument anything by itself; you still need analytics tooling and data pipelines to compute the metrics. It also requires periodic reassessment, since the framework itself can become stale as the product evolves.
