What the Product Vision Brainstormer skill makes the agent do
An agent skill is a folder of instructions that an AI agent loads when it matches your request. This one, named product-vision, tells the agent to act as a veteran product leader and brainstorm a product vision for your company or product.
The skill reads any company or product context you provide, identifies the core problem being solved, and envisions the ideal future for customers and the company. It then drafts 3 to 5 vision options, picks the strongest one with a short rationale, and explains how it fits company values and market opportunity.
The skill aims for visions that are inspiring, achievable and emotional. It also notes that a vision should be memorable enough to say in one sentence.

~/.claude/skills/How to trigger the skill with a natural request
You do not need a special command. Describe what you need in plain language. The skill's listed triggers include phrases such as product vision, vision statement, create vision, inspiring vision and north star vision.
Give the agent context about your company and product. The skill can read files in your workspace, so you can point it at a product brief or notes, or paste the details directly into the chat.
- Help me write a product vision for our team.
- Create a vision statement for our note-taking app.
- I need an inspiring north star vision to align our stakeholders.
What a typical session looks like
Expect the agent to work through a fixed process: it reviews your information, identifies the core problem, imagines the ideal future state, drafts several options, selects the strongest and explains why. Finally it checks the choice against your company values and market opportunity.
Because the skill works only from what you supply, the quality of the output depends on the detail you give. Thin input usually produces more generic wording.
- Reviews the company and product information you provide
- Identifies the core problem being solved
- Drafts 3 to 5 vision options
- Recommends one with a rationale
- Checks alignment with company values and market opportunity
What the skill needs and safety notes
The listing states that the skill requires nothing beyond the agent itself. It does not run scripts and does not use the network. It does not run code or access the internet, so it works only from the information you give it.
The package contains a single file, SKILL.md. Because it does not research the market, its claims about market conditions may be generic or unsupported. Verify any market facts yourself before you publish a vision.
- Requires: nothing listed
- Runs scripts: no
- Uses network: no
- Files included: SKILL.md
Tips for getting a better product vision
Supply real context: the customer problem, what you currently offer, and what your company values. Ask for options you can compare, then test each one against the people it must motivate.
Read the vision aloud. A good result should be short, clear and something a team member can repeat from memory. If it is not, ask the agent to tighten it.
- Include the customer problem and who has it
- Share your company values so the agent can check fit
- Ask for the 3 to 5 options and compare them side by side
- Ask for a one-sentence version if the draft is long
- Add your own market facts rather than relying on the skill
What people use it for
- Drafting a first product vision for a new product team
- Refreshing an outdated vision statement during a planning cycle
- Creating several vision options to compare with stakeholders
- Writing a short north star statement to share with investors or employees
