Spec & prioritize
Write PRDs, prioritize with frameworks, and measure what ships.

Frequently asked questions
What are agent skills for product managers?
Agent skills are SKILL.md files that teach coding agents how to run PM workflows (writing PRDs, running discovery with OST, synthesizing research, critiquing design, and prepping launches) without re-explaining frameworks each session.
Which PM skills should I install first?
Start with To PRD and Opportunity Solution Tree for discovery and specs. Add User Research and Usability Testing if you validate often. Add Launch and Product Marketing Context when you ship.
Why do PM skills span design and marketing categories?
PM work crosses research, UX, data, and GTM. This page curates the best skills for that role; topic pages like Product or Marketing list skills by category only.
