What it does
When installed, the agent helps you write or revise a STRATEGY.md file at your repository root. It asks you one question at a time about what the product is, who it serves, how success is measured, and where the team is investing, pushing back on vague answers and keeping the document short. It reads some of the repo (README, docs, recent commits) only to ask sharper questions, while the answers come from you. It also reads other project docs and can update an existing file while preserving sections written by others.
Great for
- Teams starting a new product who want a short, shared strategy document
- Maintainers who need to refresh a strategy doc after changing direction or roadmap
- Projects that use other agent skills (ce-ideate, ce-plan, ce-brainstorm) which read STRATEGY.md
Skip it if
- Feature planning, schedules or implementation plans, which the skill explicitly keeps out of the document (use a planning or issue tracker tool instead)
- Repos where you do not own the strategy doc: the skill reports conflicts or writes a separate linked file rather than editing other people's sections, so it is not a way to rewrite a colleague's document
Try asking
- “Create a STRATEGY.md for my new product”
- “Update the metrics section of our strategy doc”
- “Revisit the approach section, we changed direction this quarter”
- “Review our STRATEGY.md and tell me which sections look out of date”

Get better results
- Have your product name, target users and key metrics ready before starting, since the interview asks for sharp answers and pushes back on vague ones.
- Pass a focus hint such as 'metrics' or 'positioning' to revisit only one section instead of the whole document.
- Review the full draft in chat before the agent writes the file; you get one round of edits.
