Context Discovery

Auto-Investigation

Check for existing product artifacts:

Signal	How to Check	What It Tells Us
constitution.md	Glob("**/.aidocs/constitution.md")	Product defined
roadmap.md	Glob("**/.aidocs/roadmap.md")	Roadmap exists
backlog/	Glob("**/.aidocs/backlog/*")	Backlog items exist
todo/	Glob("**/.aidocs/todo/*")	Ready-to-execute features
user-personas.md	Glob("**/user-personas.md")	Users defined
mvp-scope.md	Glob("**/mvp*.md")	MVP defined

Read existing artifacts:

• constitution.md for product vision and constraints
• roadmap.md for current plans and priorities
• Any existing specs or design docs

Discovery Questions

Use AskUserQuestion to understand product management needs.

Q1: Product Stage

question: "What stage is your product at?"
header: "Stage"
multiSelect: false
options:
  - label: "Idea (need to define MVP)"
    description: "No code yet, scoping what to build"
  - label: "MVP defined (need to plan execution)"
    description: "Scope clear, need roadmap and backlog"
  - label: "Building (need to manage backlog)"
    description: "Development in progress, prioritizing"
  - label: "Launched (need to iterate)"
    description: "Live product, improving based on feedback"

Routing:

• "Idea" → mvp-scoping, user-story-mapping
• "MVP defined" → roadmap-design, backlog-creation
• "Building" → Skill(faion-product-operations) → prioritization, grooming
• "Launched" → feedback-management, product-analytics

Q2: Planning Need (if Idea or MVP stage)

question: "What planning help do you need?"
header: "Planning"
multiSelect: true
options:
  - label: "Define what to build (MVP scope)"
    description: "Features, user stories, acceptance criteria"
  - label: "Create a roadmap"
    description: "Phases, milestones, feature sequence"
  - label: "Set goals and metrics (OKRs)"
    description: "Success criteria, KPIs"
  - label: "Plan a launch"
    description: "Launch checklist, GTM coordination"

Routing:

• "MVP scope" → Skill(faion-product-planning) → mvp-scoping
• "Roadmap" → Skill(faion-product-planning) → roadmap-design
• "OKRs" → Skill(faion-product-planning) → okr-setting
• "Launch" → Skill(faion-product-planning) → launch-planning + coordinate with marketing

Q3: Operations Need (if Building or Launched)

question: "What operations help do you need?"
header: "Operations"
multiSelect: true
options:
  - label: "Prioritize features (what's next?)"
    description: "RICE, MoSCoW, impact vs effort"
  - label: "Manage backlog"
    description: "Groom, refine, organize"
  - label: "Track metrics and analytics"
    description: "Understand user behavior"
  - label: "Process user feedback"
    description: "Collect and act on feedback"

Routing:

• "Prioritize" → Skill(faion-product-operations) → prioritization-rice/moscow
• "Backlog" → Skill(faion-product-operations) → backlog-management
• "Metrics" → Skill(faion-product-operations) → product-analytics
• "Feedback" → Skill(faion-product-operations) → feedback-management

Q4: Decision Framework Preference

question: "How do you prefer to make product decisions?"
header: "Framework"
multiSelect: false
options:
  - label: "Data-driven (metrics, analytics)"
    description: "Decisions backed by numbers"
  - label: "User-centric (feedback, interviews)"
    description: "Decisions based on user input"
  - label: "Intuition + validation"
    description: "Hypothesize then test"
  - label: "Stakeholder consensus"
    description: "Align with team/investors"

Context impact:

• "Data-driven" → Emphasize metrics, A/B testing, analytics
• "User-centric" → Emphasize user research, feedback loops
• "Intuition" → Faster decisions, MVP experiments, iterate
• "Stakeholder" → Prioritization frameworks, alignment docs
