roadmap-interview

roadmap-interview is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from btmoriarty/kochab. It costs 105 tokens per session (1,290 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured interview that asks a Kochab user about real, recent experiences and turns the answers into roadmap input. A roadmap is a plan for what a product may build next.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to interview users about job-search tasks, find where they struggle, and identify product improvements that address those problems.
Why use it?
It helps separate underlying user problems from requested features or hypothetical wish lists. This gives maintainers clearer evidence for deciding what to build.

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

roadmap-interview 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 3d 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.

Roadmap Interview

A structured, non-leading interview that pulls real needs out of a user and turns them into roadmap input. The goal is not a wish list. It is to understand the person's actual job search well enough to know which features would matter and which would just look good.

Run it in fifteen to twenty minutes. Respect the person's time.

Interviewing principles (these matter more than the questions)

  • Ask about the real and recent, not the hypothetical. "Walk me through the last job you applied to" beats "what features do you want." People describe their needs accurately when telling a true story and inaccurately when speculating.
  • Do not lead, and do not pitch. Never describe a feature and ask if they would like it; almost everyone says yes. Ask what they did, where they got stuck, and what they wished had happened. Let the feature idea come from the friction.
  • Separate the stated want from the underlying need. When they ask for a thing, ask why, twice. "I want it to auto-apply" often means "I am exhausted by the repetition," which points at a very different, and better, feature.
  • Follow the energy. When someone gets animated or frustrated, stop and dig there. That is where the real signal is.
  • One question at a time. Let them finish. Silence is fine.
  • Capture their words. A vivid verbatim quote is worth more than your paraphrase.
  • Welcome disagreement. If they think something you built is useless, that is the most valuable thing they can tell you. Do not defend it.

The interview

Move through these sections in order, but adapt. Skip what does not apply; dig where it does.

1. Grounding

  • Where are you in your job search right now, and what does a normal week of it look like?
  • What is the search for: a similar role, a change, a first job in a field, a move up?

2. The last real instance

  • Walk me through the last role you applied to, start to finish. What did you do first?
  • Where did it get tedious, confusing, or discouraging?
  • What did you do by hand that you wished something would do for you? What did you skip because it was too much work?

Changes

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.
