A structured method for explaining a change in product data: what moved, why it moved, what it affects, and what to do next.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for metric deep-dives, funnel analysis, cohort studies, conversion investigations, and explaining data changes to stakeholders.
Why use it?
It turns raw numbers or charts into a reasoned conclusion with evidence, alternative explanations, and a stated level of confidence.

About the project

PM Skills is a collection of plain-Markdown instructions that teach AI assistants structured methods for handling professional, personal, and life-admin tasks. People use it with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, Codex, and other supported agents for work such as writing product requirements, reviewing documents, or planning difficult situations.

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

data-analysis-standard 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 6d 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.

Data Analysis Standard Skill

Turn raw numbers into product decisions. Structure every analysis with a clear question, methodology, finding, and recommended action.

Analysis Framework: The 4-Question Method

Every analysis starts here:

  1. What changed? (describe the metric and its movement)
  2. Why did it change? (root cause — segment, funnel step, cohort, channel)
  3. So what? (business or product impact)
  4. Now what? (recommended action with confidence level)

Never deliver data without answering all four. A chart with no narrative is not an analysis.


Metric Triage Template

Use when a metric has moved unexpectedly:

METRIC: [Name]
MOVEMENT: [X% change over Y period]
BASELINE: [What was normal]

SEGMENTATION CHECK:
- By platform (iOS / Android / Web)?
- By user cohort (new / returning / power users)?
- By acquisition channel?
- By geography?
- By plan/tier?

ROOT CAUSE HYPOTHESIS:
1. [Most likely explanation] — Evidence: [data point]
2. [Alternative explanation] — Evidence: [data point]
3. [Ruling out] — Eliminated because: [reason]

CONCLUSION: [Single sentence answer to "why did this change?"]
CONFIDENCE: [High / Medium / Low] — based on [data available]

Funnel Analysis Structure

Stage Metric Current Benchmark/Target Drop-off % Notes
[Top of funnel] [Users] [N] [N]
[Step 2] [Users] [N] [N] [X%]
[Step 3] [Users] [N] [N] [X%]
[Conversion] [Users] [N] [N] [X%]

Biggest drop-off: [Step X → Step Y] — Hypothesis: [reason] Recommended investigation: [specific query or test]


Cohort Analysis Guidelines

Always define:

  • Cohort definition: [What groups users — signup week, first action, plan type]
  • Retention metric: [What counts as retained — login, core action, revenue]
  • Retention window: [D1, D7, D30, W4, M3, etc.]

Output a cohort retention table and annotate:

  • Baseline retention for each cohort
  • Cohorts that over/underperform and why (feature launch? campaign? seasonal?)
  • Trend direction across cohorts (improving / declining / stable)

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.
