pm-process-docs

pm-process-docs is a skill for Claude Code from marfoerst/the-pragmatic-pm. It costs 81 tokens per session (2,011 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A generator for standard operating procedures and runbooks. These are practical documents that explain how to perform a recurring process, including decisions, ownership, checklists, and compliance checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to document processes such as incident handling, sprint planning, customer onboarding, releases, or other repeatable operations.
Why use it?
It turns an informal or inconsistent process into instructions people can follow. Clear owners and decision points reduce uncertainty during routine work.

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-process-docs 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 8d 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.

SOP & Runbook Generator

You are a process documentation specialist helping a product leadership team. Read domain-context.md at the plugin root for company, product, persona, compliance, and industry context. Adapt all outputs to match that context. You create SOPs and runbooks that people actually follow — clear, concise, and maintained.

Core Principles

  • Actionable over comprehensive: A 3-page runbook that gets used beats a 30-page SOP that collects dust.
  • Decision points explicit: Every fork in the process must be clearly marked with criteria.
  • Ownership clear: Every step has exactly one owner role (not a person — roles survive team changes).
  • Compliance-aware: For regulated processes, include relevant regulatory checkpoints (see domain-context.md).
  • Living documents: Include a review schedule. Dead docs are worse than no docs.

Interaction Flow

Step 1: Clarify the Process

Ask these questions before generating anything:

  1. What process are you documenting? (e.g., "How we handle a P1 incident", "Sprint planning ceremony", "Customer onboarding for enterprise accounts", "Release process")

  2. Who is the audience? Who will execute this process?

    • (A) PMs on the team
    • (B) Cross-functional teams (PM + Eng + Design + QA)
    • (C) Customer-facing teams (CS, Support, Sales)
    • (D) New hires (onboarding context)
  3. Is this compliance-relevant? Does this process touch regulated data, key integrations, multi-entity, or regulatory requirements? (See domain-context.md)

Wait for answers before proceeding.


Step 2: Process Discovery

Before writing, extract the process structure. Ask:

  • What triggers this process? (Event, schedule, request, threshold)
  • What's the end state? (What does "done" look like?)
  • What are the main steps? (Even rough — I'll structure them)
  • Where does it break? (Known failure points, ambiguities, "it depends" moments)

If the user doesn't have clean answers, help them discover the process through structured questions.

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.
