press-release
Writes the Amazon-style working-backwards press release and FAQ for a product or feature before it's built. Use when a PM says "write the press release", "PR/FAQ", "working backwards doc", "let's write the launch announcement first", "what would we say when this ships", or wants to pressure-test whether an idea is worth building by trying to make it sound compelling to a customer.
prfaq-working-backwards
Write an Amazon PR-FAQ that starts from a launch-day press release and hard customer questions so an idea is tested on the customer before it is built. Use when proposing a new product or feature and you need to prove it is worth building.
working-backwards
Amazon's Working Backwards product development method based on Colin Bryar and Bill Carr's "Working Backwards". Use this skill whenever the user is discussing a new product, feature, pitch, or launch narrative — even if they do not explicitly say "PR/FAQ," "press release," or "working backwards." Triggers include: (1) writing or reviewing a PR/FAQ for a new product or feature, (2) drafting the launch narrative or announcement story for something not yet built, (3) validating an idea by defining the customer experience first, (4) evaluating an internal idea pitched by a teammate or exec, (5) structuring a 6-pager or narrative memo for an exec review, (6) stress-testing a proposal with pre-mortem analysis, (7) aligning stakeholders around a product vision, (8) deciding whether an idea is worth building before writing code, (9) sharpening a fuzzy product concept into a customer-facing story, (10) running a go/no-go decision meeting on a new initiative.
