Analyze Interviews v1
v1 in one breath. You already ran the interviews; this skill pulls the methodology out of them. It takes one or many interview files (transcripts, notes, sales calls, support logs, survey open-ends — AJTBD or not, good or bad), asks which business task you're solving (and helps you pick one if you can't), then reads each interview in its own subagent — a fan-out that keeps the run from ever overflowing context no matter how many large transcripts you load. Each interview is distilled to the AJTBD constructs with an honest confidence (a clean Core-Job extraction vs. a weak hypothesis) and per-interview feedback (what was found, what's missing, whether this interview can serve your task). The distillations are clustered into segments by similar Core Jobs + similar success criteria + similar priority order, and each segment's confidence is computed from its supporting interviews' confidence. Output — one report: data-quality summary, segments with personas, structured Solutions + Problems, a Consideration Set per segment, value hypotheses, and what to interview next.
Producer contract (binding) —
../nmt-chat/references/producer-contract.md. Six cross-cutting behaviors shared by all producer skills: (1) print a helicopter-view before the first question; (2) ask Markdown or HTML output; (3) treat all user input as hypothesis and emit a "risks I see in what you gave me" block — here the inputs are interviews, so this becomes the per-interview quality read; (4) print validation framing — extracted Jobs are hypotheses with a confidence, only as strong as the interviews behind them; (5) accept a custom output path; (6) Deep mode runs an evidence floor + self-critic loop and offers a web-MCP fallback. The hooks below wire each into this skill.

Where this skill sits
The post-fieldwork counterpart to /nmt-interview-guide. nmt-interview-guide designs the study before the field; this skill analyzes the transcripts after. Distinct from /nmt-market-research, which invents segments from web research and reasoning — this skill reconstructs segments from your real interviews and tells you how far the data can be trusted. Its output feeds /nmt-craft-value-proposition, /nmt-diagnose, and /nmt-craft-go-to-market.
