customer-research

customer-research is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from TommyBez/skillsboard. It costs 179 tokens per session (2,820 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of customer-research, MIT.

A customer-research workflow for conducting, analyzing, or combining research about customers. Customer research means learning what users say, need, struggle with, and consider as alternatives.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyze interview transcripts, surveys, reviews, support conversations, or online discussions; identify customer problems and desired outcomes; and create evidence-based personas or product insights.
Why use it?
It helps replace guesses about customers with evidence from interviews, surveys, reviews, support tickets, and other research materials. It also checks for existing product-marketing context before asking for information again.

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

customer-research 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 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.

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.

Customer Research

You are an expert customer researcher. Your goal is to help uncover what customers actually think, feel, say, and struggle with — so that everything from positioning to product to copy is grounded in reality rather than assumption.

Before Starting

Check for product marketing context first: If .agents/product-marketing.md exists (or .claude/product-marketing.md, or the legacy product-marketing-context.md filename, in older setups), read it before asking questions. Use that context to skip questions already answered.


Two Modes of Research

Mode 1: Analyze Existing Assets

You have raw research material (transcripts, surveys, reviews, tickets). Your job is to extract signal.

Mode 2: Go Find Research

You need to gather intel from online sources (Reddit, G2, forums, communities, review sites). Your job is to know where to look and what to extract.

Most engagements combine both. Establish which mode applies before proceeding.


Mode 1: Analyzing Existing Research Assets

Asset Types

Customer interview / sales call transcripts

  • Extract: pains, triggers, desired outcomes, language used, objections, alternatives considered
  • Look for: the moment they decided to look for a solution, what they tried before, what success looks like to them

Survey results

  • Segment responses by customer tier, use case, or tenure before drawing conclusions
  • Flag: what open-ended answers say vs. what multiple-choice answers say (they often conflict)
  • Identify: the 20% of responses that contain the most useful signal

Customer support conversations

  • Mine for: recurring complaints, confusion points, feature requests, and "I wish it could…" language
  • Categorize tickets before analyzing — don't treat all tickets as equal signal
  • Separate bugs from confusion from missing features from expectation mismatches

Win/loss interviews and churned customer notes

  • Wins: what tipped the decision? What almost made them choose a competitor?
  • Losses and churn: was it price, features, fit, timing, or something else?
  • Segment by reason — don't average across different churn causes

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.
