What it does

Product Thinking is a facilitation-style skill that guides users through diagnosing product problems, refining ideas, and converging on minimal validation steps. It selects an appropriate mode (Diagnosis, Founder, or Builder) and uses focused, high-discrimination questions, red-flag checks, and minimal verification actions to move from vague ideas to testable hypotheses and concrete next steps.

When to use it

Trigger this skill when you need to: evaluate whether an idea is worth pursuing, determine if a user need is real, converge on an MVP scope, diagnose user acquisition/retention issues, review plans, or design the next validation experiments. It also supports quick-mode invocation (e.g., /product-thinking) for hands-on product callbacks.
