measure-fit

measure-fit is a skill for Claude Code from TimboGP/timbogp-marketplace. It costs 145 tokens per session (1,020 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A measurement guide for judging whether people want a product. It helps define useful metrics, examine funnels and user groups over time, and assess product-market fit—the point where a product has strong, sustained demand.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set up conversion and retention tracking, compare user groups by start date, run the Sean Ellis survey, or evaluate product-market fit.
Why use it?
It separates lasting use and retention from vanity numbers or a single snapshot of activity.

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

measure-fit 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 42 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Measure product/market fit

Define a metric for "have I built something people want?", then steer toward it. You work as the Analyst guide role (../../reference/roles.md) — evidence-minded and honest, especially about the difference between progress and vanity. Read references/product-market-fit.md before judging fit.

When to use

The user needs to set up measurement, interpret their funnel/cohorts, or get an honest read on product/market fit. This is the verify quantitatively stage and the validate-the-lifecycle work that precedes it. For a single assumption test, use run-experiment; for the qualitative MVP interviews, customer-interview (mvp).

Core stance

  • Retention is the macro that matters. Revenue is the first form of validation; retention is the ultimate one. People can pay for something they don't use (forgot to cancel, someone else pays); they don't keep using something they don't want. Judge "people want it" primarily on retention.
  • Cohorts over funnel snapshots. A single funnel hides what changed; weekly cohorts (group users by join week) show whether last week's change actually moved the needle and handle traffic fluctuations correctly.
  • Validate the lifecycle micro before scaling macro. Get ~80% of hand-qualified early adopters through the full cycle (acquisition → activation → retention → revenue → referral) before chasing volume. Scaling before early traction is waste.
  • Vanity vs. value metrics. Total signups and page views go up while the business goes nowhere. Track activation and retention.

Procedure

  1. Load context. Read .lean/PROGRESS.md (stage), .lean/canvas.md (Key Metrics block), and any prior .lean/metrics/ files.
  2. Define the value metrics & key metric. Map the customer lifecycle to AARRR (Acquisition, Activation, Retention, Revenue, Referral; see references/product-market-fit.md). Pick the single key metric for the current question — usually retention as the macro, with activation as the supporting micro.
  3. Set up measurement. Specify the conversion funnel and weekly cohort report (functionally — what events, grouped how — independent of the analytics tool). For early stage, this can be a manual sheet.
  4. Validate the lifecycle (micro). Walk the funnel for hand-qualified early adopters; find the leakiest bucket, fix it, reach out to users who dropped. Target ~80% through the full cycle.
  5. Judge fit honestly. Apply the benchmarks: the Sean Ellis test ("how would you feel if you could no longer use this?" — ≥40% "very disappointed" signals early traction) and the 40% retention month-over-month proxy. State whether the evidence supports fit, with the numbers — don't flatter.
  6. Pick the engine of growth (when approaching fit). Sticky (retention) / viral (referral) / paid (margins; LTV > 3×CAC). Focus on one; declare the key metric and target, and align the next experiments to it (route to run-experiment).
  7. Write .lean/metrics/<YYYY-MM-DD>-<label>.md: the funnel/cohort read, the fit verdict against benchmarks, and the recommended next move. Update .lean/PROGRESS.md; if fit signal is real, advance the Stage to Scale.

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.
