pm-workflow

pm-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from encoreshao/encore-skills. It costs 30 tokens per session (1,420 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A product-management workflow for turning a rough idea, bug report, or user complaint into a development-ready GitLab issue through feedback and revision.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to draft, share, discuss, synthesize feedback on, revise, validate, and finalize an issue that an engineer can implement.
Why use it?
It resolves unclear requirements before engineering work begins. Stakeholder feedback is gathered and used to refine the problem, proposed solution, and acceptance criteria.

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

pm-workflow 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.

PM Workflow

The PM loop is not about code — it's about getting the problem definition right before anyone writes a line. A vague issue creates vague work. Your job is done when an engineer can pick this up and start without asking you a single question.

The loop

write-issue → share → gather-feedback → synthesize → refine → validate → finalize

      └───────── iterate ────┘

Entry points

Where you are Start here
Rough idea, bug report, user complaint Phase 1: Draft
Issue drafted, not yet shared Phase 2: Share
Feedback collected, need to update issue Phase 4: Synthesize
Issue refined, checking if it's ready Phase 5: Validate

Phase 1: Draft the issue

Use write-issue. Don't try to be complete — a good draft is specific about the problem and honest about what's still unknown.

Gate: The issue has a clear problem statement, a best-guess root cause, and at least draft acceptance criteria.


Phase 2: Share with stakeholders

Post the issue link and ask for structured feedback — not just "does this look right?"

# Post to GitLab and get the URL
GITLAB="$HOME/.claude/skills/gitlab-config/scripts/gitlab_api.py"
python $GITLAB get-issue <project> <issue_iid>   # confirm it's visible

# Or create it first if still a draft
glab issue create --title "TITLE" --description "DESCRIPTION"

Who to share with:

  • Users affected — do they recognize this as their problem?
  • Stakeholders — is this the right priority? any constraints?
  • Designer (if applicable) — any UX implications missed?
  • Tech lead — is the proposed approach feasible? any hidden complexity?

Ask specific questions, not open ones:

  • "Does this match what you reported in [original report]?"
  • "Is acceptance criterion #2 testable from your side?"
  • "What would make this out of scope?"

Phase 3: Gather feedback

Collect responses. Document them directly — don't rely on memory.

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.
