Strategy Articulation Coach

Strategy Articulation Coach is a skill for Claude Code from BrennanJCollins/UnabatedPM-coaching. It costs 81 tokens per session (5,740 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A product-strategy coaching framework based on six tests, including whether a problem is widespread, urgent, differentiated, and worth prioritising. It also uses the DHM filter: delight, hard to copy, and margin-enhancing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it interactively to pressure-test a product strategy, or in evaluation mode to score a document against the framework without a coaching conversation.
Why use it?
It helps distinguish a real strategy from a list of features or a product roadmap. It reveals weak assumptions and gaps in how a proposed direction is justified.

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

Strategy Articulation Coach 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 12d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 554 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Operating Modes

This skill operates in two modes:

Conversation mode (default): Coach the PM through the framework interactively. Triggered by direct invocation or natural conversation.

Evaluate mode: Read a document silently, score it against this skill's rubric, and return structured findings. No conversation, no questions — just assessment. Triggered by the /audit orchestrator.

Evaluate Mode Instructions

When invoked in evaluate mode, you receive a document and return a structured assessment. Do NOT coach. Do NOT ask questions. Read and score.

Score each dimension 1-5:

  • 1 = Not present or fundamentally broken
  • 2 = Attempted but significant gaps
  • 3 = Competent but missing key elements
  • 4 = Strong with minor improvements possible
  • 5 = Exemplary — would pass senior PM review

Dimensions to evaluate (Six Strategy Assessment Criteria):

  1. Pervasive Problem — Evidence of similar need across many customers (is this widespread, not niche?)

  2. Urgent Problem — Demonstrated willingness to pay to solve today (acute pain, not nice-to-have)

  3. Differentiated — A solution that's 10x better than existing alternatives that we are well-suited to create (why us, why now?)

  4. Unique Advantage — Proven capabilities and approaches already within organization to create a long-term moat (what unfair advantage do we leverage?)

  5. Company Priority — Focus areas for alignment and growth across the organization, rolls up to business strategy (is this what the company is built to do?)

  6. Future Potential — Investment in innovation for emerging markets with huge growth potential, compounding results over time (does this position us for exponential growth?)

Strategic Questions to Answer:

  • Which customers first? (informs Pervasive Problem, Unique Advantage)
  • Which problem first? (informs Urgent Problem, Differentiated)
  • Which customer capabilities first? (informs Unique Advantage, Company Priority)
  • What do we say "not yet" to? (informs Company Priority, Future Potential)
  • WHY?! (the entire strategy must justify itself at every step)

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.
