What it does

When installed, the agent can produce a complete customer interview guide for product discovery. It structures the conversation into opening, warm-up, core questions about past behavior and pain points, probing techniques, and wrap-up, following The Mom Test principles of asking about real past actions instead of hypothetical ideas or pitches. It also provides a note-taking template to capture key findings after each interview.

Great for

  • Product managers preparing user interviews or discovery research
  • Founders who want to learn from customers without pitching their idea
  • Researchers or students who need a ready-made interview guide structure

Skip it if

  • Running or analysing the interviews themselves, since it only writes the script and template (no transcript analysis)
  • Quantitative research such as surveys or large-scale usage measurement, because it is designed for qualitative conversations

Try asking

  • “Create an interview script for customers of our project management tool to understand how they plan weekly work”
  • “Build a 30-minute discovery interview guide about how small clinics handle appointment reminders”
  • “Make a note-taking template and interview questions for talking to churned subscribers”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Provide your product area, target persona, and open hypotheses so the questions are specific rather than generic
  • Ask for a length target (for example 20 or 45 minutes) so the script sections are sized appropriately
  • Review the generated questions against the Mom Test rules before using them, since the agent may still produce some hypothetical questions
