Innovate

Explore the current project deeply, then answer:

What are the highest-value product additions or capability changes you could make to this project right now — and if you had to pick just one, which one and why?

Produce a ranked list of 5–10 opportunities with a scoring matrix, then designate one explicit winner with justification. The product twin of elevate (which asks for technical/architectural moves).

Focus argument

The skill accepts an optional free-form focus string (e.g., activation, retention, differentiation, AI, onboarding, power users).

  • No focus: survey all four product dimensions (user value, differentiation, activation/retention, force-multiplier).
  • With focus: interpret the string, map it to relevant dimensions, and return only opportunities that match. Do not include off-focus candidates, even if they look higher-leverage.

Process

  1. Read the project. CLAUDE.md, README, key config, public-facing docs (landing page, marketing copy, changelog) to understand the product's current positioning and user-visible surface.
  2. Map the user surface. Identify entry points (CLI commands, routes, API endpoints, UI flows), then trace the user journey from first contact to power use. Note where the journey breaks, dead-ends, or requires workarounds.
