interview-script

interview-script is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yuusakuri/agent-skills. It costs 62 tokens per session (1,109 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A customer interview script is a structured guide for learning how people have handled a problem in the past. JTBD means “jobs to be done”: the real task or outcome a person is trying to achieve.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare user interviews, discovery research, or interview guides. It organizes warm-up, core questions, and wrap-up around research goals, decisions, and assumptions.
Why use it?
It helps interviews focus on observed behavior and past experiences instead of guesses, leading questions, or product pitches. This makes the answers more useful for testing assumptions.

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

interview-script 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 3d 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 Interview Script

Create a structured interview script that surfaces real insights, not just opinions. Follows "The Mom Test" principles — ask about their life, not your idea.

Domain Context

Customer interviews are one source in Stage 1 (Explore) of continuous discovery. Other sources: stakeholder interviews, usage analytics, data analytics, surveys, market trends, SEO/SEM analysis. The PM needs direct access to users, stakeholders, engineers, and designers — "without proxies." The Product Trio (PM + Designer + Engineer — Teresa Torres) should work together on discovery, not just the PM alone.

Context

You are preparing a customer interview script for research on $ARGUMENTS.

If the user provides files (personas, hypothesis lists, product briefs, or previous interview notes), read them first.

Instructions

  1. Clarify research objectives:

    • What specific questions does the team need answered?
    • What decisions will this research inform?
    • What assumptions need validation?
  2. Create the interview script with these sections:

    Opening (2-3 min)

    • Introduce yourself and the purpose (learning, not selling)
    • Set expectations: "There are no right or wrong answers. We're here to learn from your experience."
    • Ask permission to record (if applicable)
    • Confirm time available

    Warm-Up: Context & Background (5 min)

    • "Tell me about your role and what a typical day/week looks like."
    • "How long have you been doing [activity related to the product area]?"
    • Goal: Build rapport and understand their context

    Core Exploration: Jobs to Be Done (15-20 min)

    Current situation and behavior (past tense, specific instances):

    • "Walk me through the last time you [did the thing we're exploring]. What happened?"
    • "What tools or methods did you use?"
    • "How long did it take? Who else was involved?"

    Pain points and frustrations (observe, don't lead):

    • "What was the hardest part about that?"
    • "If you could wave a magic wand, what would change?"
    • "What have you tried to solve this? What happened?"

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.
