Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Claude skill?

A skill is a structured prompt file (.md) that turns Claude into a specialist. Instead of writing prompts from scratch, you load the skill and Claude follows a proven framework for your specific deliverable.

Do I need a paid Claude plan?

The skills work with Claude Free, but Claude Pro or Team gives you longer context and more thorough outputs — especially useful for complex deliverables like PRDs or roadmap documents.

Can I use these if I’m not a senior PM?

Yes. Each skill is designed to guide you through the framework step by step. You don’t need to know the methodology in advance — the skill walks you through it.

How is this different from PMM skills?

PMM skills focus on market-facing work: positioning, messaging, GTM, and competitive intel. PM skills focus on the product development lifecycle: discovery, requirements, prioritization, and delivery. See PMM Skills

Can I customize the output?

Absolutely. The deliverable Claude generates is a starting point. You can ask follow-up questions, request edits, adjust the tone, or have Claude focus on specific sections.

What format are the files?

Plain Markdown (.md) files. They open in any text editor, paste easily into Claude, and stay readable without any special software.
