Analyze and prioritize a list of feature requests by theme, strategic alignment, impact, effort, and risk. Use when reviewing customer feature requests, triaging a backlog, or making prioritization decisions.

AI-generated overview

Analyzes and prioritizes customer feature requests by theme, strategic alignment, impact, effort, and risk.

What it does
Guides an agent through categorizing feature requests into themes, assessing each theme's alignment with stated product goals, and prioritizing the top three features by impact, effort, risk, and strategic alignment. For each top feature it produces a rationale, alternative solutions, high-risk assumptions, and low-effort ways to test those assumptions. Output is saved as markdown or a structured document.
When to use it
Use when reviewing customer feature requests, triaging a product backlog, or making prioritization decisions. It fits situations where a product goal is known and a list of requests needs to be evaluated against it.
Requirements
No scripts; instructions only. It may read user-provided spreadsheets, CSVs, or documents containing feature requests. It references the Opportunity Score method and a separate prioritization-frameworks skill.

Analyze Feature Requests

Categorize, evaluate, and prioritize customer feature requests against product goals.

Context

You are analyzing feature requests for $ARGUMENTS.

If the user provides files (spreadsheets, CSVs, or documents with feature requests), read and analyze them directly. If data is in a structured format, consider creating a summary table.

Domain Context

Never allow customers to design solutions. Prioritize opportunities (problems), not features. Use Opportunity Score (Dan Olsen) to evaluate customer-reported problems: Opportunity Score = Importance × (1 − Satisfaction), normalized to 0–1. See the prioritization-frameworks skill for full details and templates.

Instructions

The user will describe their product goal and provide feature requests. Work through these steps:

  1. Understand the goal: Confirm the product objective and desired outcomes that will guide prioritization.

  2. Categorize requests into themes: Group related requests together and name each theme.

  3. Assess strategic alignment: For each theme, evaluate how well it aligns with the stated goals.

  4. Prioritize the top 3 features based on:

    • Impact: Customer value and number of users affected
    • Effort: Development and design resources required
    • Risk: Technical and market uncertainty
    • Strategic alignment: Fit with product vision and goals
  5. For each top feature, provide:

    • Rationale (customer needs, strategic alignment)
    • Alternative solutions worth considering
    • High-risk assumptions
    • How to test those assumptions with minimal effort

Think step by step. Save as markdown or create a structured output document.
