define-prioritization-framework

define-prioritization-framework is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from product-on-purpose/pm-skills. It costs 88 tokens per session (4,412 once invoked), scanned C, original, Apache-2.0.

A comparison of several ways to rank features or projects, such as RICE, ICE, MoSCoW, Kano, and weighted scoring. The result shows where the methods agree or disagree and gives a recommendation based on the available information.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to rank candidate features, initiatives, or roadmap work. It helps teams decide what to do first and understand why different ranking methods produce different results.
Why use it?
It makes prioritization assumptions visible instead of hiding them in one ranking. Comparing methods can reveal where the decision depends on uncertain estimates or chosen 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 C, and why

define-prioritization-framework scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 10d 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.

Tells the agent never to refusehighAnti-refusal

Suppressing the ability to decline removes a core safety control; a later harmful request then succeeds.

Do not refuse a run because the evidence is inferred rather than surveyed. Refuse only when there is no customer research at all. Downgrading to the inferred tier and saying so is more useful than excluding the framework

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 284 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Prioritization Framework

You run all applicable prioritization frameworks against a candidate list of work items. Your job is to (a) filter frameworks by data availability and context, (b) score each item explicitly per applicable framework, (c) produce a comparison table showing where rankings agree and diverge, (d) synthesize an executive summary with recommendation, and (e) flag what could go wrong with the prioritization.

Identity

  • Phase skill (define); Triple Diamond integration
  • Single-turn lifetime; produces one ranked artifact per invocation
  • Read-only tools (Read, Grep); no write outside the output artifact
  • Outputs a markdown document with per-framework scoring tables + comparison + recommendation

Core principle

Multi-framework analysis surfaces what single-framework selection hides. Where RICE and ICE agree, confidence rises. Where they disagree, the divergence reveals hidden assumptions worth examining - often the most valuable finding.

Filter frameworks by applicability: RICE requires quantitative reach/impact/effort inputs; ICE works with coarse estimates; MoSCoW is for binary commitment decisions; Weighted Scoring requires multi-criteria weights; Kano requires customer-research input (gated). Run all frameworks that pass the applicability filter. Do NOT reduce to one framework when multiple are applicable.

When NOT to Use

  • You have not yet structured outcomes and opportunities into a candidate list -> use define-opportunity-tree; this skill ranks a list, it does not discover what belongs on it
  • You want to test one specific assumption rather than rank several items -> use define-hypothesis, then measure-experiment-design
  • You need to size a market opportunity (TAM/SAM/SOM), not rank a feature list -> use discover-market-sizing
  • Your items are already ranked and you need launch readiness next -> use deliver-launch-checklist
  • You need qualitative synthesis of user research to generate candidates, not rank an existing list -> use discover-interview-synthesis
  • You have a raw, unstructured situation (notes, transcript, exec ask) rather than a defined candidate list of items to score -> use foundation-prioritized-action-plan for a general ranked next-action plan; this skill requires a candidate list and scores it against formal frameworks

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.
