What problem does it solve? Product teams often rely on intuition rather than evidence when deciding what to build next, leading to mismatches between product quality and market positioning. This Skill provides a rigorous audit protocol that diagnoses whether a product is a "best kept secret" (strong build, weak distribution) or "vaporware" (strong claims, weak product), then produces a concrete action plan. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Two-Lane Scorecard: Evaluates Lane A (build truth: reliability, time-to-value, architecture, defensibility) against Lane B (world interface: positioning, trust, discovery, monetization) with evidence-based scoring. - Mismatch Diagnosis & Friction Mapping: Identifies accidental friction (bad design), deceptive friction (broken promises), and claim-versus-proof gaps that erode user trust. - Structured Artifacts: Generates ready-to-use markdown deliverables including a snapshot, scorecard, risk register, and 30/60/90 day plan. - Use Case: A founder preparing for a funding milestone runs the audit to discover their product works well but has unverified marketing claims, then receives a 90-day plan focused on proof-building and distribution rather than new features. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run a systemic product audit on your project, starting with your North Star metric and primary user.
