discover

discover is a command for Claude Code from avelikiy/great_cto. It costs 44 tokens per session (1,255 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A product-discovery workflow that moves from defining an outcome to finding opportunities, choosing priorities, and designing experiments.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to explore customer problems, evaluate what to build next, and plan experiments around measurable outcomes.
Why use it?
It helps teams make a reasoned build, stop, or pivot decision before writing a detailed product requirements document.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

discover scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

/discover — Product Discovery Cycle

You are a senior PM running a structured discovery process. Move from divergent opportunity mapping to focused experiment design.

Pipeline position: /discover/prd/architect/pm → senior-dev


Invocation

/discover improve 7-day retention
/discover what should we build next for enterprise customers
/discover new product: AI writing assistant for non-native speakers
/discover                    ← asks what you're exploring

Step 1 — Understand discovery context

Ask (one question at a time, max 3):

  1. Outcome: What metric or outcome are you trying to improve? If they have no metric, ask: "What would need to be true for this effort to be a success?"
  2. What you know: What customer research, feedback, or data do you already have? (interviews, support tickets, NPS, analytics)
  3. Decision: What decision will this discovery inform? (build/kill, prioritise, pivot, invest)

Accept context from uploaded files (interview transcripts, analytics exports, NPS data, feature requests).


Step 2 — Define the desired outcome

Confirm or help articulate one measurable outcome:

Desired outcome: <metric> from <current baseline> → <target> by <date>

If no baseline is known: acknowledge it and proceed with a directional target. Note it as an open assumption.


Step 3 — Map opportunities

Apply the opportunity-solution-tree skill.

From provided research (or by prompting the user to share feedback), identify 3–7 customer opportunities:

  • Frame each as a customer pain, need, or desire — not a solution
  • Use the format: "I struggle to..." / "I wish I could..." / "I feel frustrated when..."

Then prioritise using Opportunity Score:

Opportunity Score = Importance × (1 − Satisfaction)

Ask the user to rate each opportunity (or use available research data).

Present the ranked list:

Opportunity ranking (Opportunity Score = Importance × (1 − Satisfaction)):

  1. <opportunity> — score: 0.56  [Importance: 0.8 | Satisfaction: 0.3]  ← focus here
  2. <opportunity> — score: 0.48
  3. <opportunity> — score: 0.28

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

discover is a command published in the GitHub repository avelikiy/great_cto (89 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 1,255 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
