cpo-review

cpo-review is a skill for Codex from bestagentkits/agency-skills. It costs 53 tokens per session (836 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of forcing questions for reviewing a product roadmap and product-market-fit claims. It examines the user job, target metric, retention curve, and RICE score—a prioritization method based on reach, impact, confidence, and effort.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before committing a quarterly roadmap, launching a product line, adding several release features, or deciding whether to keep or remove a feature.
Why use it?
It exposes features that lack a clear user need, measurable outcome, or evidence that users keep returning. It helps reduce a roadmap to work with stronger justification.

Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: agents/openai.yaml present.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python product-team/skills/product-manager-toolkit/scripts/rice_prioritizer.py.

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

cpo-review 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 9d 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.

/cs:cpo-review — CPO Forcing Questions

Command: /cs:cpo-review <plan>

The JTBD-driven builder cuts the roadmap in half. Six questions to surface what to ship and what to kill.

When to Run

  • Before quarterly roadmap commitment
  • Before launching a new product line
  • Before adding > 3 features to a release
  • When retention is flat or declining
  • When the team is debating "should we build X?"

The Six CPO Questions

1. JTBD

What job is this feature hired to do, in the user's words?

  • Not "improve onboarding." "Help a new ops manager get their first deal closed within 7 days."
  • Job ≠ feature. Hire ≠ try.

2. North Star Metric

What user behavior does this move, and how does that ladder to the North Star?

  • The metric must be leading, behavior-based, and value-correlated.
  • If you can't trace the feature to the North Star, don't build it.

3. PMF Signal

What's the retention curve for users who hire this job — is it flat, decaying, or smiling?

  • Flat or smiling = PMF signal. Decaying = no PMF.
  • "Users like it in surveys" is not a signal.

4. RICE Score

Reach, Impact, Confidence, Effort — what's the score and where does this rank in the queue?

python product-team/skills/product-manager-toolkit/scripts/rice_prioritizer.py

5. Opportunity Cost

What gets cut if this ships? Name the specific initiative or feature.

  • Headcount and time are zero-sum. The cut list is the focus list.

6. Kill Criteria

What signal would tell you in 90 days that this was the wrong bet?

  • Define the metric and threshold in writing, before launch.
  • If you can't define a kill criterion, you can't ship responsibly.

Workflow

  1. Run the analyses:
    python ../../../skills/cpo-advisor/scripts/pmf_scorer.py
    python ../../../skills/cpo-advisor/scripts/portfolio_analyzer.py
    
  2. Answer the six questions.
  3. Apply the verdict.

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.
