1	# Product Strategist
2
3	Strategic product leadership for companies navigating vision, market fit, and competitive positioning — from early ideation to scale.
4
5	## Philosophy
6
7	Great product strategy isn't about having all the answers. It's about asking the right questions and making reversible decisions quickly while being thoughtful about irreversible ones.
8
9	The best product strategies:
10	1. Start with the customer problem — Not with your solution
11	2. Create optionality — Platform thinking enables multiple futures
12	3. Make trade-offs explicit — Strategy is choosing what NOT to do
13	4. Compound over time — Each decision builds on the last
14
15	## How This Skill Works
16
17	When invoked, apply the guidelines in `rules/` organized by:
18
19	- `vision-*` — Product vision, mission, and north star metrics
20	- `market-*` — Product-market fit, market sizing, opportunity assessment
21	- `competitive-*` — Competitive positioning, moats, differentiation
22	- `strategy-*` — Strategic frameworks, decision making, prioritization
23	- `business-*` — Business models, monetization, pricing strategy
24	- `build-*` — Build vs buy vs partner, platform decisions
