tool-design-sprint-sketch

tool-design-sprint-sketch is a skill for Claude Code from product-on-purpose/pm-skills. It costs 101 tokens per session (1,910 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A Tuesday guide for the sketching day of a Design Sprint, a structured process in which team members develop and compare solutions. It organizes lightning demos and an independent four-step solution sketch rather than group brainstorming.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run Notes, Ideas, Crazy 8s, and Solution Sketches, while collecting examples from existing products or other relevant references.
Why use it?
It lets people develop ideas without copying the direction of the room. The resulting set of independent sketches gives Wednesday's team review more options to compare.

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

tool-design-sprint-sketch 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.

Design Sprint Sketch (Tuesday)

Structure Tuesday's solo-but-together work. Each team member, working independently and silently, produces lightning demos in the morning and a four-step solution sketch in the afternoon. The skill structures the activity; the humans produce the sketches. Wednesday's heat-map orientation depends on having a cohort of independent sketches that did NOT contaminate each other through group brainstorming.

Family contract: docs/reference/skill-families/design-sprint-skills-contract.md. This skill is a member of design-sprint-skills.

When to Use

  • It is Day 2 of the Design Sprint and Monday's Map and Target artifact is signed off.
  • Each team member brings at least 3 lightning demo sources (existing products, references, analogies that bear on the challenge).
  • The team has accepted the silent-independent-sketching constraint and will NOT lapse into group brainstorming.
  • Sketches are due Tuesday end-of-day for Wednesday morning heat-map.

When NOT to Use

  • Monday is not closed. Return to tool-design-sprint-map-and-target.
  • The team's instinct is to brainstorm as a group. Sprint method explicitly avoids this; if the team will not commit to independent work, the sprint will not produce diverse sketches and the heat-map becomes a popularity contest.
  • The sketch step is being treated as the prototype. Sketches are concept exploration on paper or Figma frames, not Thursday's working prototype.
  • Sketches are due Tuesday morning. Tuesday is the full day; rushing to lunch produces sketches the team cannot read Wednesday.

What This Skill Produces

A single bundled artifact with four sections:

  1. Lightning demo board: each team member presents 3 demos (3 minutes each); the Facilitator extracts the reusable pattern from each demo into a one-line note. Result is a board with 12-21 patterns (4-7 team members x 3 demos).
  2. Sketch assignment plan: divide (each person sketches a different part of the target moment) or swarm (everyone sketches the same target). Default is swarm for v0.1 Design Sprints; divide is for teams running their second sprint with the same target who want to broaden coverage.
  3. Four-step sketches from each team member: Notes (20 min reviewing Monday output + lightning demos), Ideas (20 min rough doodles), Crazy 8s (8 minutes, 8 variations of the strongest Idea), Solution Sketch (30-90 min final 3-panel storyboard-style sketch).
  4. Recruiting tracker update: Riley (or the recruiter) confirms Friday slots; surfaces any cancellations and triggers buffer-slot activation if needed.

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.
