impact-mapping

impact-mapping is a skill for Claude Code from VandanaAjayDubey111/great-pm. It costs 83 tokens per session (1,562 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A product-planning method that links a measurable goal to the people who can affect it, the behaviour you want from them, and possible things to build.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to connect product ideas to business results, compare possible deliverables, and decide what not to build.
Why use it?
It helps reveal assumptions behind a roadmap and prevents teams from building features that do not support a clear outcome.

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

impact-mapping 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 119 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Codex host binding

  • Treat references to Claude slash workflows as the equivalently named Codex skill.
  • Before delegating to any specialist, read the great-pm-runtime skill and the selected packaged role file.
  • Treat "invoke", "assign", "delegate", "spawn", and source Agent-tool instructions as a required Codex spawn_agent call with that role and a bounded assignment.
  • For the spawn tool's task_name or agent_name identifier, replace canonical role-name hyphens with underscores (query-refiner-pm → query_refiner_pm). Keep canonical names unchanged in prompts, filenames, verdict logs, and user-facing output; this is an internal identifier mapping, not a role rename.
  • Store every returned agent identifier. Never call a wait tool until a spawn has returned an identifier, and wait only on identifiers returned by successful spawns.
  • If spawn_agent is unavailable or a spawn fails, report BLOCKED; do not impersonate the specialist or wait on an empty agent set.
  • Resolve bundled paths from the installed GreatPM plugin root.
  • Ignore Claude-only model aliases, colors, turn limits, and tool allowlists.
  • Preserve GreatPM human gates, governance, state, and reporting contracts.

Impact Mapping

A strategic-planning technique (Gojko Adzic, Impact Mapping) that prevents the single most common roadmap failure: building deliverables that don't actually move the goal. It does this by forcing every feature to trace back through an actor and a behaviour change to a measurable goal — and by making the assumptions in that chain explicit and testable.

An impact map is a mind-map with exactly four levels, answering four questions.

The four levels

  1. Goal — WHY? The measurable business objective. Must be a metric with a target and a deadline, not an activity. SMART. Examples: "Reach 5,000 weekly active users by Q3", "Cut onboarding drop-off from 60% to 30%."
    • Bad goal (an activity): "Launch the mobile app."
    • Good goal (an outcome): "20% of signups complete first upload within 24h."

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.
