Produces a one-page lean canvas across nine interlocking blocks (problem, customer, UVP, solution, channels, revenue, cost, metrics, unfair advantage) with optional inline HTML and SVG visual rendering. Use when framing a new product thesis, stress-testing an existing strategy, comparing strategic options side-by-side, or aligning a team on business-model assumptions. Works as a strategic hub that cross-links to deeper PM skills without duplicating them.
Design a viable business model for a one-person company using Lean Canvas and a simplified Business Model Canvas. Use when Codex needs to explain the business-model concepts when needed, verify niche and value-proposition prerequisites, ask one question at a time, present multiple model choices, and write user-confirmed outputs into `opc-doc/`.
Guides management consulting-style work—engagement framing, hypothesis-driven problem structuring, issue trees, business cases, operating model and capability design, strategic options analysis, workshop facilitation, and executive recommendations (not legal advice). Use when diagnosing a business problem, structuring a strategy or transformation initiative, building a business case for leadership, designing target operating models, preparing steerCo or board recommendations, or advising on build-vs-buy and portfolio priorities—not for detailed requirements/BRDs (business-analyst), multi-team delivery tracking (technical-program-manager), contract negotiation (commercial-counsel), revenue accounting (senior-revenue-accountant), applied AI architecture (applied-ai-architect-commercial-enterprise), or system ADRs (senior-system-architecture). Canvas/TAM: business-model-researcher. Comms: communication-lead. M&A closing: transaction-manager. M&A principal/IC: transaction-principal.
Run a structured business analysis workflow: requirements elicitation with stakeholder interviews and MoSCoW prioritization, as-is/to-be process mapping with BPMN notation, data-driven analysis (CBA, SWOT, root cause), and production-ready documentation (BRD, FRD, user stories with INVEST acceptance criteria). Triggers on "gather requirements", "write user stories", "map business process", "BRD", "FRD", "gap analysis", "cost-benefit analysis", "facilitate workshop", "business requirements", "process mapping", "as-is to-be", "stakeholder interview", or "business analyst". For management consulting (issue trees, steerCo business cases, operating model), use business-consultant—not business-analyst. For business model canvas, market sizing, and unit economics research, use business-model-researcher. Human data / labeling platform PRDs: product-management-human-data-platform. Monetization PRDs and packaging: product-management-monetization.
Use this skill when users need to validate if their business can scale, stress-test their model, or assess bottlenecks. Activates for "can this scale," "validate my business model," "what's my bottleneck," or when planning for growth.
Expert product strategist for vision, strategy, and market positioning. Use when defining product vision, assessing product-market fit, sizing market opportunities (TAM/SAM/SOM), competitive positioning, or choosing between build/buy/partner. Covers business model design, monetization strategy, platform decisions, and strategic roadmap planning.
Conduct comprehensive company research and due diligence. Analyze business model, competitive landscape, management, and market position.
Predict market/tech/business-model trends and market-entry timing (enter/wait/avoid) by analyzing 2-3 years of signals to forecast 1-2 years ahead; use for questions like market timing, trend trajectory (rising/peaking/declining), adoption curve stage, or what comes next.
Master product strategy, market analysis, competitive positioning, and long-term product vision. Define business models and craft go-to-market strategies that drive success.
Create and collaborate on business model canvases and strategic planning templates.
Complete startup launch guidance from idea validation to market entry. Use when planning a new business, validating product ideas, or preparing for launch.
Applies Steve Blank's Customer Development methodology from The Four Steps to the Epiphany. Use when a startup is searching for customers and a business model before scaling. Covers the four-step process: Customer Discovery (find if anyone wants what you're building), Customer Validation (prove you can sell it repeatably), Customer Creation (drive demand matched to Market Type), and Company Building (transition from learning org to execution org). Triggers include 'we built it but no one's buying', 'should we hire salespeople yet', 'how do we find our first customers', 'we're burning cash and sales aren't scaling', 'are we in a new or existing market', 'when do we scale'. NOT for companies that have already crossed the chasm into mainstream (use Crossing the Chasm instead), not for optimizing an existing sales funnel, not for product development methodology (this is its companion, not replacement).
