New in v4.4.0 — «Гість ядра»: a shared core connects even when it ships no manifest, or its registry does not list you (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). ctx repo add connects such a core in one of three modes, the safest first, none of them changing the core: search only (--search-only — the folder as a search source, no role model or e-mail needed), an inferred manifest (--infer — read from the core's layout, kept with your registrations (manifests/), never in the core, in place only; never a command, an address or the owner's filters) and a guest (--guest — the core's blocks without a team block). The owner's meetings, personal folder, TODO lists, Now.md, store, 1-1 logs and profiles stay out of your search; a manifest the owner ships later wins at once. Each mode ends with one line for the core's owner, ready to forward — the plugin sends nothing. context-connect 0.9.0 offers only the modes the folder allows, the recommended first.
New in v4.3.0 — «Публікація»: a result becomes a link you open, update and share — one «так», a new version instead of a copy (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). One protocol (references/artifact-publishing.md) says where a result can go — the host's own pages and documents, Atlassian Artifacts in your company's tenant, Confluence, the tools your registry says publish that kind — in which order (for colleagues the company's tenant first, for you alone your own account), and asks once, «лише файл» always an answer. Where a result went is kept per result (~/.grow-pm/publications/, mirrored into the note's published field), so the next run offers the next version of the same place — an artifact's next immutable version, the same link, the same page after an edit check — never a copy. design-bridge renders one deck as .pptx, a self-contained HTML deck and the host's deck on your product's design system, and publishes an existing deck as it is; product-reporter, cjm-research and focus-advisor get dashboards with a source and a date for every number. Sharing is its own question, to named people only; a scheduled run never publishes.
New in v4.2.0 — «Реєстр інструментів»: the plugin knows what else helps your work, and says so in one line (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). knowledge-library keeps a tools registry — other plugins, skills, MCP connectors, apps, sites, portals, courses — with what each is for, whether it is on this machine, how to connect it and what you think of it (references/tool-registry.md). A scan finds what is installed by itself: the host files on this machine (names only — never a command, an argument, a key or a URL), the session's own tools, the account's plugins and skills, the apps the plugin knows; the MCP registry and your organisation's plugin catalogue are searched only when you ask. diagram-prototyper, product-research and meeting-processor offer a missing tool at their step in one line, once per run, never again after «ні». A team's core can publish its own list (tools_file in the provider manifest), shown read-only as «Від команди»; your shared records export as one file for the core's owner — the plugin never writes into a core.
New in v4.1.1 — The marketplace installs from the registry copy — releases reach Claude desktop and Cowork again (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). The marketplace that Claude desktop and Cowork install from imports the whole repository and refuses a plugin whose tree holds a second plugin manifest; since v4.0.2 the tree carries the registry copy (.ai-registry/skills/grow-product-manager/), so with "source": "./" it stayed at 4.0.1. The entry now points at the copy, which is rebuilt at every release, and validator check 22 keeps it there. Reported, not reproduced locally: claude plugin validate accepts both forms. No skill behaves differently.
New in v4.1.0 — «Поверхні хоста»: a skill knows where the host can put a result, and asks before anything leaves the session (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Step 0-host marks five more capabilities — a page at a link (ARTIFACT), a live document (DOCS), the host's own visual in the conversation (WIDGET), a recurring run on your machine (SCHEDULE local), a research pass with sources (RESEARCH) — described in references/native-surfaces.md with what was measured on each host. focus-advisor draws its board inline, product-analysis its charts, cjm-research schedules its health-check, product-research takes the host's research first, product-reporter offers a live document. Before internal data reaches a hosted surface — a live page or document, Confluence, Notion, a whiteboard, a design file — every skill asks, an update included, naming what goes, where and who can open it; a scheduled run never publishes; before a Jira or Confluence write the skill confirms itself on every host. Lint check 30 keeps host brands out of the skills. On Codex CLI 0.153.2 the plugin's hooks run once you trust them in Codex.
New in v4.0.2 — Atlassian MCP v2: a page written on v2 is asked about first, and a page is read whole (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). On the Atlassian MCP v2 server the Confluence writes are createConfluenceContent / updateConfluenceContent, and the host write gate knew only their v1 names — a page was published on v2 without its question; now both names are gated. references/integration-strategy.md 1c maps every Atlassian tool the skills name from v1 to v2 and names the three differences that change a result silently: read a page with detail: "full" (the default is an excerpt), update with a fresh snapshotToken, ping with getAccessibleAtlassianResources. The release also ships the registry copy of the plugin (.ai-registry/skills/grow-product-manager/), rebuilt at every release.
New in v4.0.0 — «Вейлт: аудит і граф»: the links of your vault, seen and tidied (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). The index now knows every file a link may land on — an evicted note and a picture too — and resolves every link once, in its own vault: ctx graph <note or entity> shows what is one or two hops around it in milliseconds. ctx audit names what breaks the links of your layer — orphans, dead and ambiguous links, broken generated regions, missing type/created, backups, two cards that disagree on a number — and says which of them a machine can fix; ctx vault normalize fixes those with a report, your code, a snapshot and ctx undo (a link keeps the text a reader sees, a value is never changed, a file never renamed, People notes never listed), and adds _System/AGENTS.md and Obsidian Bases tables. A card's numbers become facts with their period and day, and every answer from a note can show the trust of its source. ctx serve gives all of it to a host without a shell as a local MCP server of vault/v1. Breaking: the write gate now asks before a write that changes a generated region of a note (/grow-product-manager:setup --write-gate off turns it off). Measured on a full copy of the author's vault (7.3k notes): the audit in 3 s, 178 files normalised and every one of them back byte for byte after ctx undo, 0 orphans and 0 fixable findings after the write, a two-hop graph in 19 ms. The last release of the programme «Петля контексту».
New in v3.24.0 — «Власна копія ядра для MCP»: a core that lives only on a server becomes a folder on your machine (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). When a team's core is reachable only as an MCP server, ctx repo copy <id> makes the plugin's own copy of it in ~/.grow-pm/cores/<id>/ in one command — every note under the server's root, at its path there. From then on the plugin reads the repository as a folder: the blocks, the team block, the search, who-is-who and the bridges' boundary — and the search and entities answer without the VPN. The daily sync refreshes the copy in the background with a full pass and never deletes anything: a note gone from the server moves into .removed/ only after two complete listings without it, and an incomplete listing from the server writes nothing and moves nothing. A note you changed in the copy stays yours; when the server changed it too, its version waits in ~/.grow-pm/conflicts/. For the team block through a server that serves notes only, the core's owner publishes the manifest and the role model as two .md wrappers (ctx repo kit-check checks them). Measured on the author's real core: 4 865 notes in one command, a rerun with 0 writes, every semantic hash equal to the author's own sync script, and the team block from the copy byte for byte the one from the folder.
New in v3.23.0 — «Оверлей і журнал»: your corrections to a core are declared, and you can read what changed (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). A correction you keep to a team's shared core is an operation in overlays/<repo>.yaml — replace, remove, append, ignore or alias, with your reason — laid again after every refresh and daily sync, so a core release over a block you did not edit asks nothing. When the core fixes what you corrected, you get one question, «прибрати поправку?»; a prose note of corrections moves into the overlay through context-connect with one «так». A value the core changed that you copied into your own sections arrives in the inbox. ctx history writes a note a month with «Було | Стало» of the core's releases and your own changes; ctx identity puts the core's team and role for your e-mail beside yours with both sources. A team that wants to share its context copies examples/provider-kit/zorg-core/ and colleagues connect it with one command (ctx repo add). Measured on the author's real context: a core release in one confirmation with 0 questions, and the correction the core fixed asked about exactly once.
New in v3.22.0 — «Конфігуратор-петля»: the configurator reads first and asks at most five questions (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Setting up no longer starts with an interview: the configurator reads your connectors read-only — Atlassian first, then the calendar, your mail's domain, Fireflies and Tableau if they are connected — and ctx bootstrap shows one table: what each field says now, what it would say, where that came from and how sure it is. What a connector cannot be sure of goes to the inbox instead; a value you gave yourself is never taken but by number. Basic is at most five decisions — you, your role, your products, your team, the table — and saving it creates your context store at once, with the source of every field (ctx show <id>). Once a week the morning brief checks your records against the connectors (ctx validate --recheck): a finding becomes an inbox delta only when a second look a week later sees it again, never from a connector that did not answer. /grow-product-manager:context consolidate proposes removing a duplicate line, making a relative date absolute and dropping a passed deadline — as proposals, never a write. Measured on the author's real context: 0 false closures, and a new user's setup in under three minutes of questions.
New in v3.21.0 — «Скринька»: what skills learn about your context waits for your «так» (33 skills, 3 agents, 7 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). A skill that learns something about your context during a run — a dashboard the product record lacks, a Jira key that moved, a product that closed — no longer writes it in silence or asks «зберегти?» at the end of every run: it proposes a delta (ctx propose), and the inbox keeps it. What matters most — who you are, your team, a product's keys, anything closed — is asked at once in one question; the rest is one line У скриньці +N and waits for the morning brief or /grow-product-manager:context inbox, taken or rejected in one answer, with ctx undo. A secret or a state or financial identifier never reaches the store — every writing command and every delta refuses it by its form, naming the kind, never the value. /grow-product-manager:context show says what the plugin knows about you and who wrote each record when; health says what wants looking after, each line with the command that fixes it; ctx snapshot import turns your old local-context.md backups into snapshots. The first release of the programme «Петля контексту».
New in v3.20.0 — «Мости в нотатках»: the bridges your notes lack, written on your «так» (33 skills, 3 agents, 6 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). When an e-mail or your own same answer makes your person note and a core's card one person, nothing in your note said so — Obsidian, your scripts and other tools did not see it. Ask context-navigator «запиши мости в нотатки»: ctx entity apply reports which notes would get one frontmatter line same_as: "[[<card>|<title>]]", what it skips and why, and a report code; only on your «так» does --apply --code write that report alone — into your plugin folder, never a core, one line per note with every other byte, the file's mode and its tags kept, after a snapshot. ctx undo takes it back: a note you have not touched byte for byte, one you edited loses our line alone. A same_as your own scripts keep is someone else's field: the plugin then writes nothing and says so. The plugin's card in Claude now shows one sentence instead of 5 000 characters of history; and a row «Ім'я, Ім'я — роль» of a core's team card joins both people.
New in v3.19.0 — «Слоти з однієї сутності»: a person's role, a team's members — one answer from every card (33 skills, 3 agents, 6 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). A person's role, team and e-mail and a team's members, missions and parent are put together from all the cards of one entity — your note, a core's card, another team's card, and every person whose own team: names the team — by the cascade (yours first, then the cores, then a local index, then what other cards say), each piece with where it comes from. ctx read's team members are one line per person, nothing of the section lost, and ctx entity shows the slots (--slot, several requests with one --q each). The 14 skills that work with people find a person through ctx entity — by e-mail first, several → you choose — never by a file name.
New in v3.18.0 — «Хто є хто»: one person, team or epic across your notes and the cores (33 skills, 3 agents, 6 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Ask «хто такий X», «що за команда X», «що таке PROJ-1234» or «хто посилається на X»: ctx entity joins your person note, a core's registry card and another team's card in your local index into one entity — by the e-mail, a field of one link recognised by its shape, or your own ctx entity same|not-same answer, never by a name alone — and says who it is, where its cards are, who links to it and, for a Jira key with no card, where it is mentioned. Outside the People contour you see identity only, and a sensitive note as its title and path with · sensitive. Nothing is written into your notes; ctx entity pairs lists the cards that may be the same. The search index gets the identity, link and mention rows in place — no rebuild.
New in v3.17.0 — «Пошук по контексту»: ask your context directly (33 skills, 3 agents, 6 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Ask in your own words — «знайди в моєму контексті…», «що в мене є про…» — or type /grow-product-manager:find <запит> [--list] [--all]. context-navigator searches every connected context: your notes in the plugin's folder (the rest of your vault through a local index of it), every connected core, your local indexes, and the session's live sources when you ask or when your base has nothing direct. It answers with a source and a date for every statement, or lists the notes, and ends with «Де шукав: …». It works with or without a shared core. People notes — person cards, profiles, 1-1s — are marked sensitive by the engine itself and stay with the People contour; elsewhere a person is named by identity only.
New in v3.16.2 — «Пошук», другий патч: nothing swaps in another note silently (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Two cards that differ only by a list of owners no longer fold into one; your remembered pick of a note folded as a twin weighs its survivor, and a «не те» crosses only a fold of the same text; the excluded folders are the same in the index, the search and --get; every name a search lists reads back from the source that holds it — a server's note outside its root is @<repo>/:/…, a core gone from disk is read through its server; the «нотатка довга» line names exactly the sections --get takes back. ctx search eval finds a golden note folded as a twin at its survivor's place.
New in v3.16.1 — «Пошук», патч: your whole plugin folder reaches the search, and --get gives a long note in measured parts (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). ctx index rebuild --download brings down the notes iCloud offloaded from your plugin folder — only those the index reads, never a core or the rest of the vault, nothing else ever downloads — and indexes them: on a real vault 1 820 of 1 821 came down and the right note among the first 50 rose to 100 %. Every ctx search --get gives at most 20 000 characters with a line naming the headings past the cut (--full — 60 000, for a note the model rated «прямо»), and reads a link as a hub writes it: embeds, nested headings, block references, a folder in the link — never another note with the same tail silently.
New in v3.16.0 — «Пошук»: Step 0.5 finds what your base already holds about the request (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Until now Step 0.5 matched every word of the request («AND»), in one language, and asked «Use as context?» in the middle of the run — on a real vault the right note was among the first five for 44 % of the requests and for 2 of 24 real ones. Now the model writes 3–4 variants of the request (Ukrainian, Russian, English, a synonym) and ctx search asks every source at once — its own section index of your plugin folder and the core folders (~/.grow-pm/index/, refreshed within 30 s, iCloud-evicted files never read), a local index of yours read only, and a repository's server only when it has no folder on disk; light Ukrainian/Russian stemming, OR semantics, the team glossary's other names, rank fusion, folding of the same page found twice and of near copies, a mark for an outdated, older or sensitive note and «станом на <день>» for a card older than its class. The skill reads 30 candidates, takes silently at most three that are directly about the request with their source and date, puts a doubt or a conflict into a block of variants after the work, and remembers what you pick (ctx search remember). ctx search --get reads a section, a note by its path or by its name. Measured on a copy of a real vault: the right note among the first 50 for 98.9 % of 95 requests (ctx search eval), and at the model level 95.8 % of what was taken silently was right, nothing taken on 10 of 10 requests the base has nothing on.
New in v3.15.2 — A binding to a slot the catalogue lacks sets no other binding aside (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Per block the first binding counts — yours, the publisher's slot=, the plugin's team#Members — and a binding to a slot this plugin does not know still took that place: a core ahead of the plugin could set the plugin's team#Members aside and drop the core's half of a team's members. Such a binding now does nothing — the next source binds the block — and ctx validate still names it as unknown.
New in v3.15.1 — A binding to a slot the catalogue lacks no longer hides a block (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). A block that you or its publisher bound only to a slot references/context-slots.yaml does not have (a slot= naming an unknown slot, or a binding to a slot a later catalogue removed) was kept out of every by-name answer; such a binding does nothing, so the block answers by its heading again, and ctx validate still names the binding as unknown. No real core publishes slot= yet: nothing changed for anyone today.
New in v3.15.0 — A skill gets its slot, says what it lacks, and ctx explain says where each piece came from (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). ctx read now answers every name a skill asks for through a slot of a catalogue (references/context-slots.yaml, 22 slots — team.members, product.key_metrics, org.key_metrics …), whatever the heading is called and whichever record holds it. A repository's block fills a slot only when it is bound — by you (ctx slot bind), by its publisher (slot= in the marker) or, for the team block, by the plugin — and the cascade decides: a core rule, then your text, then the repositories by rank. A list shows both halves with their sources, the rest is one також line, nothing is repeated, and the missing line says where it looked. ctx explain shows the winner and why for every slot; ctx validate names broken bindings and divergences and proposes bindings, which context-connect offers in one message. Without any binding every skill reads what it read in v3.14.1 (a golden test of 99 views).
New in v3.14.1 — A skill sees the subsections it lacks; Team Members answers Members (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). ctx read used to list a missing field but never a missing subsection, so a skill that asked for a team's Members under a heading named Team Members got no members and said nothing. A subsection nobody has now goes to the Відсутнє line (named with the team when several are read), Members is also found under Team Members — your own text before any block — and the card counts members under either heading.
New in v3.14.0 — The core reaches your context by itself, once a day (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Turn it on per repository (sync: daily, asked once by context-connect) and the first skill of the day runs ctx provider sync --if-due: blocks you did not edit are updated, a block you and the core both changed keeps your text unless the core marks it policy=rule, new blocks are added, more than one removal at once is held, a text you undid is never applied again and a copy of the core that lags behind takes nothing — within 20 seconds, never waiting on a lock. Every decision is explained in a report in _System/context/sync/ with both texts of a conflict and the way back, and the session digest shows a repos: line.
New in v3.13.1 — repo list tells the truth; the digest keeps its context line on a cold start (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). ctx repo list shows the blocks you hold, the version of your bases and the last check from the block state. On a cold session start (iCloud, an antivirus scan) the digest shows the store's summary saved last, marked · cached, instead of dropping the context: line — so skills still read through ctx read. ctx provider apply takes several answers per --choose/--add, refuses a repository given as an answer before anything is written, and ctx undo names what it could not put back.
New in v3.13.0 — Repositories and block merge (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). A product can take context blocks from any number of repositories — a team's or an organisation's shared core reached through its MCP server or its folder — and a refresh is one pass: ctx provider plan shows a table (= unchanged · ~ updated by the repository · ✎ your edit kept · ⚠ both changed · + new · − removed · ? no base yet), ctx provider apply writes it, asking only where both sides changed a block. Your edits inside a block are kept; an empty, cut or lagging source never removes or downgrades anything; ctx undo takes an apply back with its bases. ctx read marks where each block came from and when it was checked.
New in v3.12.1 — Your own sections reach the skills again; ctx undo after an import is whole (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Since v3.12.0 a skill reads only what references/context-manifest.yaml names, and the manifest cannot name your own ## sections — so they stopped reaching any skill. A custom or setting record now says who reads it (read_by, set with ctx assign <id> all|<skills> or the configurator's "Who reads custom sections"); unassigned ones are named in ctx read and counted in the digest. ctx undo after an imported edit or removal now undoes it in local-context.md too.
New in v3.12.0 — Lean reading, record lifecycle, freshness and typed fields (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). With a context store, a skill no longer reads the whole local-context.md at Step 0: ctx read --skill <name> gives it the context card plus only the fields and subsections its entry in references/context-manifest.yaml names — on a real 926-line context about 25,600 tokens became 900–3,000 per skill (measured on the release machine, all 33 skills). Records can be marked no longer current, archived, and come back from a 30-day trash with ctx restore; each knows when it was last verified, and a skill states a stale fact "as of" its date. ctx writes only under ~/.grow-pm and the storage root. Without a store nothing changes. See Context store.
New in v3.11.0 — The context store: your context as records, local-context.md as their compiled view (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Your context can now live as records — one note per section of local-context.md — in your vault, next to a context card (INDEX.md). local-context.md becomes the compiled view: every skill reads it exactly as before, and whatever a skill, another plugin or you in Obsidian write into it directly is imported back into the records. A deterministic engine, ctx, moves a single-file context in losslessly — it proves the compile gives your file back byte for byte before it writes anything — snapshots before every change, keeps a journal and undoes; a record that is missing or still downloading stops a run before anything is written. The sixth contour, Context, groups context-connect, context-navigator and the store. The configurator offers the move once; without it nothing changes. See Context store.
New in v3.10.1 — Routing that survives a crowded host (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). Claude Code caps the skill listing at 1% of the context window and, past the cap, lists the least-used skills by name alone; on a machine with about 150 skills, 16 of this plugin's 33 showed no description and the model routed on names — the cause of most trigger misses left open in v3.10.0. Every description now keeps its lead and nearest-neighbour guard within 400 characters (9,787 for all 33, were 21,217), the full trigger list of each skill lives in its ## Routing section, and validator check 12 keeps the budget. Trigger evals run twice — as the host lists skills and with every description visible — through two runners now in testing/; on the test machine the misses went from 9 to 0 by majority of three. context-connect opens with "Shared team core — connect, refresh bundle, add MCP provider" for hosts that show about 53 characters of a description. Fixes from the phase-1 review: the bundle builder keeps your own note on the Updated: line, quotes registration paths, stops on an unclosed marker and takes --propose-only (--dry-run still works); the session digest reads an index date from a meta table spelled k/v, escapes the index path and names a registration it cannot read; the branch scan exits 2 when its base is missing.
New in v3.10.0 — Shared-context providers: connect your context to a team's core (33 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 3 hooks). A team or an organisation can now share its core knowledge — team cards, people registry, missions, metrics, rules — with every colleague's plugin, and the plugin treats it as a provider: one contract, vault/v1 (vault_search, vault_get_note, vault_get_links, vault_graph_context, vault_list_by_tag, vault_list_by_folder, plus optional brain_* status and entity tools), declared by a provider manifest and registered per user (references/context-provider-protocol.md). New skill context-connect resolves your team and role from your e-mail, copies the bundle relevant to you, proposes the core's context blocks for your local-context.md — never overwriting it, every discrepancy a question, a backup before and a changelog after — and registers the provider; the bundle builder scripts/provider_bundle.py reads every folder name, label and note template from the manifest. New skill context-navigator answers from the shared core — who owns what, where a rule lives, which missions a team has, who someone is — through the provider's own rules and graph, always with the note path and the snapshot date. The vault level L2 now means "a provider answers vault/v1" (it named tool calls no server had); Step 0.5 searches every reachable provider, merges results and says once when a provider is stale or unreachable. A third hook asks before a file write inside a provider's read-only folder. The session digest no longer double-counts teams or products that a provider block or the Landscape section repeats, recognises a vault declared as a table, and lists providers and your bundle. One storage story replaces the old pointer-file description; backups keep the last 5 everywhere. Lint check 26 provider-contract and a branch scan for organisation identifiers (release pre-flight) guard the new surface.
New in v3.9.0 — Build first, a built-in opponent, learning modes — the Judgment Core + Role Layer programme is complete (31 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 2 hooks).
build_first: on; it is a line, never a question.
⚠️ TBD and are never asked for.requirements/ai-feature template covers the behaviour spec, eval set, acceptable error rate, kill criteria and tracking plan. It is reached by explicit AI words, never by a bare "model".
Spec readiness: n/6 and proposes an eval-set QA task.learning_mode: pm_first asks you to tag a few real items first in feedback triage, interview minutes, interview synthesis and CJM hypotheses. You then see "Your tags vs mine"; your tags never change the artifact. explain shows how the skill got there.Templates 41 → 43. Lint check 25. host-smoke runs Codex from a neutral directory.
New in v3.8.0 — Evidence classes: every number and quote says how it is known (31 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 2 hooks).
Every claim in a product artifact now carries one of six classes: observed, measured, reported, external, simulated or assumed. A claim here is a number stated as fact, a quote, a benchmark or a "users want X".
CR 0.99% (measured · 12mo rolling, …, workbook-1) or «…» — P3, 12.09 · reported. A table or section whose claims share one class and source carries a single label.measured is earned. Only data the skill fetched or counted itself is measured. Figures you paste, and reports or screenshots you hand over, are reported (you).simulated. They never become a finding, a count or a quote.докази: E.evidence_classes and altitude keys, and their Summary keeps simulated / assumed labels.evidence_classes from their evidence.It adds no question, switch or role-dependent behaviour. Automated runs get the labels and keep synthetic input out of findings, but add no hand-back line. Lint check 24 guards the vocabulary.
New in v3.7.0 — Judgment points: your estimate first, a falsifier on the verdict (31 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 2 hooks). At six judgment points the plugin asks for your estimate before it shows its own, and then compares the two: your top-3 before any ICE / PRO score in brainstorm-features, your prediction before an experiment readout, your call before the A/B verdict, your priorities before ICE / RICE in quarterly planning, your prior in the focus-advisor gate, and your confidence and revisit trigger when logging a decision. It is one question per point: «пропусти» skips it and «вимкни» switches it off (Hypothesis first in ## Judgment, on by default). It is never asked in scheduled or headless runs, or when a skill is called only for its data. At those points the lead recommendation or verdict — the A/B report, the brainstorm result, a prioritised quarterly plan, the focus brief, a decision record — now ends with a confidence line (Confidence: likely · most sensitive to: … · would change if: …, Gate 4c) above the altitude line. Decision records gain the owner, rejected alternatives, base rate, revisit trigger and minority report; a revisit judges the decision's quality apart from its outcome (the "resulting" check). Stakeholder reports without a decision get a "status theater" note. New shared reference references/judgment-points.md and lint check 23. Evidence-class labels arrive in v3.8.0.
New in v3.6.0 — Role defaults and templates (31 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 2 hooks). The role now shapes where a run starts: Step T ranks the role's template first — design brief for designers, strategy memo for CPOs, business case and QBR for business owners, research plan for researchers — through 14 new built-ins (41 in total) that are candidates only for their own subtype, so a request without it resolves exactly as before. Role extra sections (NFR for engineering leads, tracking plan for analysts, repository entry for researchers) are added only when the artifact lacks them; gate emphasis adds role-specific evidence checks as caveat lines (SRM / exposure / peeking and confidence intervals for analysts, comparability and trend-vs-objective for leaders), never relaxing one; the planning suite gets Now / Next / Later views (roll-up for leaders, delivery slice with a tech-debt row for delivery roles); a money bridge links key metrics to revenue drivers in QBRs, board updates and business cases. A user without a role, and every automated run, sees exactly v3.5.0.
New in v3.5.0 — Role layer: eight roles that change defaults, never capabilities (31 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 2 hooks). The plugin now asks once who you are — PM, Head of Product, CPO, Product Designer, Product Analyst, UX Researcher, Engineering Lead or Business Owner — and keeps the core the same for everyone: same skills, gates, routing and principles. New shared reference references/role-profiles.md (altitude model L1–L4, eight profiles, hats) and Step 0i — Role resolution in every skill. What you see in v3.5.0: the role question in onboarding (a two-level picker; set role / «змінити роль» any time), one question for an existing local-context.md with a free-text role (mapped by keyword, confirmed once; never asked in headless or chained runs), hats for one run («подивись як CPO», "as an analyst" → Hat: cpo (profile: pm)), an altitude line closing every Product-contour artifact (Altitude: L2 · ↑ serves: … · ↓ next: …, Gate 4a of the quality gate), role-first quick wins, and the role in the session digest. Role-specific templates, gate emphasis and planning defaults arrive in v3.6.0. Lint checks 19–22 keep the layer honest: no branching on role names, no persona prompts, a footer in every Product-contour skill, one role enum.
New in v3.4.0 — Judgment contract and a thinner core (31 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 2 hooks). New shared reference references/pm-mental-model.md — the plugin's model of its user as a Product Manager in the AI era and a ten-principle behaviour contract (see Principles below): the plugin creates freely and decides carefully. Every skill now carries a three-line Step 0j — Judgment contract block (references/local-context-protocol.md): note the run's judgment points internally, with no output; a principle acts only through a step that implements it, so until that step exists every question, gate and output stays exactly as it is. This version publishes the contract and changes no question and no output — the mechanisms behind principles 2–10 arrive in v3.5.0–v3.9.0. Thin core: long procedures moved verbatim into skill-local references in meeting-processor, diagram-prototyper, product-research, task-creator, design-bridge and requirements-creator; cjm-research compressed its gate sub-checks into a pointer table; the Figma designs check shared by four skills now lives in references/figma-designs-check.md. Every SKILL.md is ≤ 400 lines, and validator check 15 keeps it that way.
New in v3.3.0 — Product landscape: a registry of competitors, adjacent players and benchmarks, and six optional research connectors (31 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 12 connectors, 2 hooks). New skill product-landscape keeps one shared registry (~/.grow-pm/landscape/: registry.yaml, products/<slug>.md, scans/, maps/) with what every product is — kind, category, markets, platforms, walkable surfaces (web URL, App Store id and Mac availability, Android package), size signals, characterization — and a role per user product (direct-competitor / adjacent / benchmark / inspiration); product.competitors becomes the seed the registry imports. Modes: scan (scripts/landscape_scan.sh lists Mac apps, iPhone apps installed from the Mac App Store and adb packages; App Store lookup fills genre, rating and seller; Chrome/Safari bookmarks only after a per-scan "yes", never history), discover (App Store search by genre and market, Play pages, web search, and Similarweb / Semrush / Lazyweb / Mobbin / Apify when connected), add / update / characterize, map (the research/landscape artifact), and research — a ranked candidate list with no cap, the user picks any subset or names other products, then the same flow runs across them through flow-walkthrough compare (competitors read-only), product-research and brainstorm-features with landscape:<slug> evidence. Any product the plugin touches is registered as status: auto. Six optional connectors are declared in .mcp.json — lazyweb, similarweb, mobbin, semrush, tavily, apify — each the user's own account, none required. plugin-configurator gains Landscape setup (bookmarks consent, product category, competitors import).
New in v3.2.0 — Test accounts by role and multi-role walkthrough legs (30 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 6 connectors, 2 hooks). A product's production test accounts are declared once in local-context.md (#### Test Accounts: label, role, surfaces, where access is obtained, sandbox flag — never a password or a one-time code) through a new plugin-configurator add-on (add Test accounts). A flow-walkthrough scenario can now be several legs played by different roles in sequence — the test buyer places an order, the test seller confirms and ships it, the buyer reviews — with hand-off values (order id, tracking) captured from screenshots and passed to the next leg; the user logs in before each leg. The write boundary follows the account: stop-before-irreversible on the user's own account, sandbox-confirm on a sandbox test account (irreversible actions inside the test contour are allowed, each confirmed in one line before the tap; "confirm all in this leg" switches to sandbox-auto), read-only on competitors — and two hard stops nothing lifts: real money and actions visible to real users. The pack gains legs[] in run.yaml, leg/role on every step, steps/L<leg>-<NN>.png; the report gets a leg summary table. Reference example: examples/marketplace-order-to-review-flow.md (three legs, four confirmations).
New in v3.1.0 — Walk the flow in the real product (30 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 6 connectors, 2 hooks). New skill flow-walkthrough drives the product the way a customer does — a web app in a browser, a desktop app, an iPhone app installed from the Mac App Store on Apple Silicon, an Android phone or emulator over adb — one step at a time with a screenshot per step, friction graded per step (severity + Nielsen heuristic or CJM stage), a local evidence pack (~/.grow-pm/walkthroughs/<run>/: run.yaml, steps.yaml, steps/NN.png, findings.md) and a research/walkthrough report with a flow strip (marker = step number, via visual-annotation-protocol.md). Four modes: setup (agent-guided readiness table from scripts/walkthrough_preflight.sh, installs confirmed one by one, user-only actions marked, smoke test), walk, compare (one scenario across surfaces or against competitors — competitors are read-only), audit. New shared references/app-drive-protocol.md adds the sixth observed capability APP-DRIVE (levels web / desktop-background / foreground / device, measured vs assumed per host), a driver table, preflight (overlay utilities quit, machine-busy warning, write boundary restated, first screenshot read back), the step cycle (act → wait → screenshot → verify → log) and safety (credentials and one-time codes are user-only; stop before any irreversible production action by default; screenshots stay local). Measured on Claude Cowork: background window capture fails for iPhone apps on a Mac (foreground only), transparent overlay windows block clicks, App Store builds never run in the iOS Simulator. Consumers wired: cjm-research (source walkthrough-local), product-research (hands-on UX benchmark via compare), requirements-creator / task-creator / write-concept (walkthrough pack as screenshot source 0), diagram-prototyper (steps.yaml → flowchart). Next: iOS Simulator builds, iPhone Mirroring, Android emulator install, Codex/ChatGPT drive levels measured.
New in v3.0.0 — One plugin, three hosts: Claude Code / Cowork, Codex CLI and app, ChatGPT (29 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 6 connectors, 2 hooks). Nothing was forked: Codex reads the same .claude-plugin/ manifests, loads all 29 skills under the same grow-product-manager: namespace and registers the same connectors. What changed is how the skills behave where a host lacks something. references/host-profiles.md defines five observable capabilities — filesystem, shell, subagents, connectors, hooks — and every skill runs Step 0-host once, marks them present or absent from the session's own tool list (never from a brand name), and picks the matching mode: storage_mode: local | connector | session, sequential in-session checker passes instead of subagents, an in-skill confirmation instead of the write-gate hook. Measured on Codex, not assumed: Codex resolves a bare references/<file>.md against the skill's own folder, so every skill and command now opens with a Path rule; Codex shares one ≈15k-character budget across every listed skill's description (~190 characters each on a machine with 80 skills), so all 29 descriptions were rewritten with the essence and the neighbour guard inside the first 190 characters — trigger-evals 102/102 on both hosts; migrated commands are routable skills there, so each is guarded as typed-only. Packaging: marketplace.json "source": "./" (Codex ignores the object form; Claude rejects a bare "."), AGENTS.md, .codex/agents/*.toml, portable ${PLUGIN_ROOT}. Validator checks 12–14 and testing/host-matrix.md keep all of it mechanical. Known Codex gaps are documented, not hidden: no plugin agents or hooks, empty-url connectors fail in the CLI (the app matches them by name), and Codex picks up a new version only when it starts (restart the app, or run two commands) — see Hosts below.
New in v2.6.0 — Host hooks: a context digest at session start and a human in the loop before writes (29 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 6 connectors, 2 hooks). hooks/hooks.json registers two hooks. SessionStart (also after /clear and compaction) runs scripts/session_start.py: it finds local-context.md wherever this session can see it — including connected folders under $HOME/mnt/*/ in hosted sessions, where the shell's home is a sandbox — and injects a GROW_PM_SESSION digest (path, versions, user.language, products, onboarding state, vault/CJM/team-language flags), so Step 0a of local-context-protocol.md becomes a lookup instead of a four-location search; GROW_PM_CONTEXT_PATH is exported for Bash. PreToolUse on createJiraIssue / editJiraIssue / createConfluencePage / updateConfluencePage runs scripts/write_gate.py, which answers ask for content-bearing writes — the host shows a three-point checklist (gate report in chat, explicit go-ahead, not a sandbox) and waits; metadata-only edits pass. A hook sees only the tool call, never the conversation, so this is deliberately a confirmation, not a judge; /grow-product-manager:setup --write-gate off turns it off. Both hooks fail open. Validator check 11 verifies the wiring (events, timeouts, scripts exist and are executable, scripts compile); component counts now include hooks. No skill changed.
New in v2.5.0 — Plugin components: connectors, agents, commands (29 skills, 3 agents, 5 commands, 6 connectors, 2 hooks). Until now everything the plugin needed from the host was described in prose — "look for a tool matching mcp__*__*Jira*", "spawn a subagent that must not browse". v2.5.0 moves three of those contracts into the manifest, where the host enforces them. Connectors: .mcp.json declares the six connectors the skills rely on (atlassian, figma, gmail, google calendar, google drive, fireflies); they appear in the plugin's Connectors tab with a connected state, and references/integration-strategy.md gains a Declared connectors table (key → connector → observed tool namespace) that replaces the stale gcal_*/gmail_* patterns. Tableau is deliberately not declared (a local server the user runs). Agents: three named subagents whose tools: line is the guarantee the protocols only asked for — artifact-checker (tools: Read; the maker–checker half in requirements-creator, write-concept, task-creator), debater (tools: []; one per role in Debate Mode), extractor (read-only fan-out worker per subagent-delegation.md). Each protocol keeps its fallback chain: named agent → general-purpose with the same prompt (reported) → inline with the marker. Commands (user-only, never auto-routed): /grow-product-manager:status (one-screen health: version, context path, vault level, connectors present vs declared), config validate|view, release patch|minor|major, glossary-lint. Validator: four new consistency checks (agents/commands frontmatter, .mcp.json ↔ table drift, component counts in the three public descriptions); the org-leak linter and the seeded test now cover agents/ and commands/. Touched: requirements-creator v0.13.1, write-concept v0.11.1, task-creator v0.12.1, brainstorm-features v0.10.1, plugin-configurator v2.9.2, release-manager v0.2.0.
New in v2.4.1 — The "no org data" promise, enforced. An audit found nine shipped lines that named the maintainer's own team as the authority behind a rule (per <Team> convention), signed reference examples with a team and a quarter, wrote a schema example in one team's language, or hardcoded an output language where user.language exists — all green under every existing check, because a leak that is an ordinary word has no lexical signature, only a position. Those lines are fixed, and three positional checks now catch the class: org-signature, example-locale (fenced blocks only — bilingual triggers in prose are the routing surface by design), example-keys. New testing/seeded_leak_test.py: ten known-bad lines injected one at a time, the linter must go RED on each — 10/10, wired into both CI workflows. testing/Testing-process.md gains the written rule ("Every example in the plugin is universal") and two DoD items. Touched: product-reporter v0.5.2, knowledge-library v0.7.1, plugin-configurator v2.9.1.
New in v2.4.0 — Visual requirements and team language (stage 2 of the stakeholder-feedback release). New shared references/visual-annotation-protocol.md: annotated screenshots where marker № = requirement № (a visual index with a legend table, not an illustration) — sourced from user upload / Figma / live browser, rendered locally with Pillow, user-previewed, stored in the project repo, and attached via Atlassian REST API (the Rovo MCP ships no attachment tools; token env NAME in config, value never) with browser/manual fallbacks; diagram-prototyper v0.10.0 gains a standalone Annotate mode. knowledge-library v0.7.0 grows the team-language contour: Glossary Build/Manage/Lint + Style Build (terms with variants/avoid + officialese→living phrases + a style profile with few-shot fragments), wired into every artifact by Gate 3 "Team language" in the artifact quality gate — style preamble before generation, terminology lint after. Consumers: requirements-creator v0.13.0 (Step 4.2 visualization), task-creator v0.12.0 (Step 8.5 attachments), write-concept v0.11.0, plugin-configurator v2.9.0 (Terminology & Style + Attachments setup). Trigger-evals: new Group K 100%, B/E/J regression 100%.
New in v2.3.0 — Clean artifacts: a quality gate with maker–checker verification. Stakeholder feedback surfaced two recurring defects in generated artifacts: AI-invented technical content inside business/functional requirements and tasks, and requirements written as paragraph prose instead of lists. New shared references/artifact-style-gate.md blocks both: Gate 1 applies a source test to every technical statement (process parameters stay; AI technical assumptions are prohibited by default and, on explicit request, go into a separate callout-guarded "Технічні рекомендації (AI)" block), Gate 2 enforces lists-over-prose. The gate is executed by an independent checker subagent — the agent that produced the artifact never checks its own work; the checker sees only the draft + sources + checklists, reports findings without rewriting, and critical artifacts (Confluence publish / Jira creation) get two checkers with distinct lenses (form / groundedness). Consumers: requirements-creator v0.12.0 (+ thin-core refactor: Analyze & Improve moved to skill-local analyze-improve-mode.md), task-creator v0.11.0 (batch gate before creation; Step 12 verification switches to maker–checker), write-concept v0.10.0, meeting-processor v0.13.4 (opt-in). Skill triggers unchanged.
New in v2.2.0 — Debate Mode: a role-based adversarial discussion engine. One agent brainstorming alone approves its own ideas — trade-offs between interest groups go unnoticed and ICE Confidence inflates. Now any evidence-holding skill can convene 3–5 conflicting roles (10-preset card library + custom; the Skeptic / Risk-officer is always in) over a numbered evidence pack and debate one contested question in parallel subagent rounds: opening positions → cross-examination → facilitator synthesis (consensus points, live disagreements, position shifts, verdict + confidence, mandatory minority report) with ICE Confidence corrections (consensus +1…+2, unresolved skeptic objection −1…−2). New shared references/debate-protocol.md carries the engine and guardrails (no facts beyond the pack, no web for debaters, cost cap 4×2 = 8 / hard 12 calls, inline-simulation fallback with an explicit marker); brainstorm-features Step 3D is the primary entry; thin Debate hooks land in product-research, cjm-research, write-concept, decision-log; the vault gains artifact type #34 debate (Debates/{product}/); trigger-evals gain Groups I and J. The brainstorm-features core stays ≤ 400 lines — Step 3C's CJM workflow moved verbatim to skill-local cjm-hypotheses-mode.md.
New in v2.1.0 — Audit remediation (v2.0.1 → v2.1.0). A full audit of v2.0.0 found 5 critical + 14 major defects that both validators passed green. All are now fixed, and — more importantly — each defect class is a blocking linter check, verified by injecting the defect into a repo copy. Highlights: real organization data removed from the shipped example (and the whole repo); two protocol documents that contained themselves twice, halved; vault-schema.md declared the single source of truth for vault layout, with vault-protocol.md and the Obsidian setup guide conformed to it (they had described three incompatible layouts, and the setup smoke tests could not have passed); 28 of 29 skill frontmatters made valid YAML for external tooling; experiment-tracker made reachable by chaining at all; a design-bridge handoff can no longer skip its accessibility audit; and CJM health scores now sum to 100% for funnels of any length, not just the 4-stage default. testing/skill_lint.py grew from 4 checks to 13. See the CHANGELOG for the full list.
New in v2.0.0 — Wave 3: the People-contour (29 skills). The plugin grows a whole new contour — manager → people → goals → communication → development — alongside the existing product/data/delivery contour. Six new skills: goal-setter (SMARTCBP for people / OKR for product, audit + cascade + commitment), one-on-one (prepare from the profile + analyze into signals & an ARCV follow-up, 1-1 coverage headless), performance-review (goals + GTD-index + situational-leadership diagnosis into the employer's review template), hiring-designer (role design — goal letter before the vacancy — + a universal vacancy profile mapped to the employer's HR form), offboarding-guide (evidence-gated four-meeting algorithm, strictly local), and delegation-coach (7-levels-of-Appelo audit + S1→S4 hand-off plan). A new People Context Protocol (Step P) gives every person a persistent, vault-local profile (D-type, delegation levels, goals, reporting cadence, 1-1 history, GTD-index, signals). Six methodology references distil the frameworks (SMARTCBP, 3T5F, Hersey-Blanchard, 7-levels-of-Appelo, GTD-index, ARCV, CBI, NVC, ROAIP/PRO). Breaking: team-ops-reporter is renamed to product-reporter and gains a goal-report (3T5F) mode. Existing skills learn the frameworks too — meeting-processor (ARCV follow-ups + 1-1 detection), task-creator (why/what/how + DoD + D-level depth), brainstorm-features (ROI/PRO and ICE by default), requirements-creator (ROI/ICE gate), sprint-planning (GTD-index + delegation-aware assignees), focus-advisor (manager-rhythms + "choose one"), quarterly-planning (session/board prep), feedback-triage (SH step), experiment-tracker & decision-log (cost + commitment). People data is the highest-sensitivity tier — vault/local only, never Confluence/Jira/external LLMs.
New in v1.40.0 — External design toolkit provider. design-bridge becomes the single routing host for design/prototype work and can delegate hi-fi screen generation to an external design toolkit the user declares in local-context.md — keeping the plugin core universal for any company (zero regression when none is configured). New references/design-toolkit-protocol.md defines the contract: a design_toolkits[] config schema, capability-based routing (core enum hi-fi-prototype / screen-generation / ds-tokens / figma-write / code-first-research / design-review + custom tags), a tier-0 fallback (provider → Figma MCP → Registry → Browser), four entry types (skill / mcp_tool / command / browser), a bidirectional delegation contract, and a QA-ownership rule (no double review). design-bridge → v0.3.0 adds Step 0.5 (toolkit routing); plugin-configurator gains a Design Toolkit registration step; diagram-prototyper documents the scope boundary (hi-fi, DS-native generation routes to design-bridge). Every toolkit is user-declared — the repository ships no concrete toolkit.
New in v1.39.0 — Harness engineering, wave 3: output evals (point 1). The plugin could already check which skill fired (trigger-evals = trajectory); now it can check how good the artifact is. New testing/output-evals.md defines rubrics (weighted 0/1/2, pass ≥ threshold, LM-judge against the golden exemplar) for the artifact-producing skills, with runnable testing/fixtures/ input briefs for write-concept, requirements-creator, and cjm-research. Testing-process.md splits stage 3 into 3a (trajectory) and 3b (output eval) — a blocker for any changed artifact skill — so quality is gated the way triggering already is. "Set the bar at the eval, not the demo."
New in v1.38.0 — Harness engineering, wave 2: artifacts carry their verification (point 4). Specs and PRDs now bake verification in, not bolt it on. requirements-creator gains an Acceptance Criteria section (testable Given/When/Then, the contract QA and analytics verify against) and, for A/B tests, an explicit Decision Rule (ship / iterate / kill, stated before launch so the readout is a lookup, not a debate). write-concept PRDs upgrade acceptance criteria to Given/When/Then and add a Verification & decision rule block to Success Metrics (how each metric is verified + Definition of Done). Verification moves to the middle of the lifecycle, as the whitepaper prescribes.
New in v1.37.0 — Harness engineering, wave 1 (from Google/Kaggle "The New SDLC With Vibe Coding"). Self-improvement now runs a harness-first diagnosis — before proposing a fix, the failure is classified by harness layer (instructions / tools / context / guardrails / orchestration / observability) and the fix is routed to the right place, because most agent failures are configuration failures, not model failures. A new references/harness-map.md documents the plugin's own harness anatomy and a six-context-type coverage map (thin spot identified: Examples). To fill that spot, the three heaviest artifact skills gain on-demand golden exemplars (few-shot): write-concept (worked PRD), requirements-creator (feature-spec with A/B + acceptance criteria), cjm-research (period-annotated anomaly report) — each doubling as a future output-eval fixture.
New in v1.36.0 — Wave 3 kickoff: three lifecycle skills (23 total). experiment-tracker closes the loop after the A/B spec — a persistent experiment registry with lifecycle states, stale-test reminders, readouts via product-analysis, and decisions recorded via the new decision-log (ADR-style records in vault Decisions/ that finally answer "чому ми вирішили X?"). feedback-triage turns raw support-ticket/review streams into a ranked pain map (semantic clustering, frequency × severity × trend vs the previous run's baseline) chaining straight into brainstorm-features. Vault taxonomy grows to 22 types (feedback-triage); trigger-evals gain Group H (14 phrases, lifecycle trio vs neighbors).
New in v1.35.0 — Monolith refactor complete (2–4/4): the three remaining oversized skills slimmed to on-demand cores — product-analysis 968 → ~365 lines (analysis engine and the three specialized modes moved to analysis-engine.md / specialized-modes.md; the Data Integrity Gate stays in the core), cjm-research 788 → ~395 (research pipeline Steps 4–11 → cjm-pipeline.md; per-mode report formats, publishing, and the automated health-check → cjm-reports.md), knowledge-library 751 → ~250 (eight mode workflows → library-workflows.md; trust scoring, categories, and KL onboarding → trust-and-categories.md). All content preserved verbatim; every skill now loads its core plus exactly one reference per mode.
New in v1.34.0 — Monolith refactor 1/4: plugin-configurator slimmed from 1345 to ~180 lines following the planning-suite pattern: the core keeps the mode map, entry conditions, and cross-skill protocols; detailed workflows moved to skill-local references (onboarding-steps.md — Steps 1–17 + Planning/Focus setup; maintenance-modes.md — RM/Update/Validate/View + Versioning Protocol) loaded on demand. All content preserved verbatim; Planning/Focus setup steps integrated into the onboarding flow (previously dangled after the resources section); a leftover editorial artifact removed. Trigger-evals baseline recorded (A–F 100%, G 95→100 after one label fix).
New in v1.33.0 — Focus Advisor complete: strategy mode + live "PM Focus Board": focus-advisor 0.3.0 ships the third horizon (quarter–year) — 2–4 strategic bets from product goals/missions (pinned source), NPS and funnel trends, research signals, leadership mandates and zone white-spaces, with a mandatory "what we deliberately do NOT do" section in the strategy memo. New board mode renders a persistent PM Focus Board (live artifact where supported, static HTML fallback). All three horizons of the original design are now live.
New in v1.32.0 — Focus Advisor tactics mode: focus-advisor 0.2.0 adds the sprint-to-quarter horizon — 3–5 tactical focus candidates from roadmap plan-vs-actual pace and drift, backlog staleness (ICE age), features missing prerequisites ahead of next sprints, A/B tests awaiting decisions, capacity/availability and team-event signals. Tactical scoring = ICE + capacity realism + goal alignment; new chains to project-planning replan and test readouts; weekly headless tactical brief supported (mode=tactics headless=true).
New in v1.31.0 — Focus Advisor (20th skill): PM attention dispatcher above structure/quarter/sprint — collects context signals (sprint cycle position, calendar meetings needing prep, important unanswered "live" emails, open action items, Jira tails), ranks them, recommends 1–3 daily focuses, and chains execution to the right skill. Headless contract for scheduled morning briefs; mandatory persistence to ~/.grow-pm/focus/ + Vault (focus-brief, 21st artifact type). Plugin-configurator 2.4.0 ships a Focus setup onboarding step; trigger-evals gets Group G (attention vs execution).
New in v1.30.0 — Roadmap-trio disambiguation + trigger evals: the three planning skills now carry explicit scope hints in their descriptions (roadmap-architect = structure only, no dates; project-planning = beyond one quarter; quarterly-planning = exactly one quarter), and testing/trigger-evals.md ships a 36-phrase routing test set across 6 collision groups with a run protocol and results log. Release-manager 0.1.1: "merging ≠ releasing" guard in Step 6.
New in v1.29.0 — Vault coverage complete: a standard "Save to Vault" step added to the 11 skills that previously never wrote to the Obsidian knowledge graph (requirements-creator, meeting-processor, brainstorm-features, product-research, diagram-prototyper, task-creator, product-reporter, and the 4 Planning Suite skills). Meeting MoMs, requirements, hypotheses, research, diagrams, task breakdowns, ops reports, and roadmaps now accumulate in the vault with wikilinks. Vault schema extended with 4 new artifact types: diagram, task-breakdown, ops-report, roadmap (20 types total). Vault stays optional — L0 setups are unaffected.
New in v1.28.0 — Release Manager skill: one guided pipeline to release the plugin itself — version bump across all 4 mandatory places, CHANGELOG entry, README sync, local validation, gated commit/PR/merge, GitHub Release with tag, mirror sync, and post-release verification. Ships with skills/release-manager/references/release-pitfalls.md — nine real failure modes (iCloud-evicted git objects, stale locks, token scopes, VPN-only mirrors, protected-branch divergence, CDN cache…) with guards and recovery recipes.
New in v1.27.0 — CI validation + trigger disambiguation: every push/PR to main now runs testing/validate-consistency.sh via GitHub Actions (version consistency across manifests/README/CHANGELOG, SKILL.md frontmatter, broken reference paths). Skill descriptions of the CJM trio (cjm-research / product-analysis / brainstorm-features) and the prototype pair (diagram-prototyper / design-bridge) now carry explicit "Do NOT use" routing hints.
New in v1.26.0 — Subagent delegation extended to all specialized modes of product-analysis (Post-Release, A/B Test, CJM Funnel): heavy data-acquisition fan-out runs off the main context, with data-policy guardrails and the Data Integrity Gate preserved. See CHANGELOG v1.24.0–v1.26.0 for the full subagent-delegation rollout.
New in v1.15.0 — Planning Suite: four skills on top of product-reporter — roadmap-architect (structure: goal → initiative → epic → feature), project-planning (multi-quarter forecast, dependencies, critical path), quarterly-planning (quarter roadmap with capacity gate and retro), sprint-planning (sprint pre-planning: readiness, risks, assignees). Shared references: planning-core.md, capacity-model.md, dependency-model.md, roadmap-artifacts.md.
New in v1.14.0 — Product Reporter skill (5 modes): sprint plan, sprint review, quarter review, initiative status, and team-member review — built directly on Jira (custom-field map, status-history throughput, per-Assignee/Developer breakdowns, charts). Output goes to Confluence and/or local md+xlsx (asked each run). Five built-in templates under templates/built-in/ops-report/. See skills/product-reporter/SKILL.md and CHANGELOG v1.14.0.
New in v1.13.0 — Data Integrity Gate across cjm-research, product-analysis, and product-research. New universal verification gate that catches incomplete-period extrapolation, holiday windows cited as YoY trends, single-source cascading claims, and missing inline period annotation. See references/data-integrity-protocol.md and CHANGELOG v1.13.0.
New in v1.12.0 — Onboarding has two modes: Basic (3-5 min, mandatory fields only — usable immediately for concept/requirements/research/brainstorm/spec) and Extended (15-25 min, full setup of CJM, Vault, Templates, Knowledge Library, Teams, full Tableau analytics). A third Test mode (sandbox) lets you walk through onboarding without modifying real data — say dry-run onboarding any time. See skills/plugin-configurator/SKILL.md for the full Step 1 onboarding map.
The Grow Product Manager plugin is a comprehensive AI-powered toolkit designed to accelerate product management workflows. It provides skills for research, analysis, brainstorming, documentation, task creation, and visualization across your entire product lifecycle.
The plugin amplifies the Product Manager's judgment instead of replacing it: drafting, searching, clustering and prototyping run without friction, and the plugin slows down only where a judgment is made. The contract is references/pm-mental-model.md; every skill reads it at Step 0j. v3.4.0 published the contract and v3.5.0–v3.9.0 shipped the mechanisms: principles 2, 3 and 9 act since v3.7.0 through references/judgment-points.md; principles 1, 7 and 10 since v3.8.0 through the evidence classes and Gate Check 6 of references/data-integrity-protocol.md; principles 4, 6 and 8 and the rest of 5 since v3.9.0 through the pre-mortem, the build-first offer and the learning modes of judgment-points.md §7–§9 and the guard of references/self-improvement.md. Three switches in ## Judgment of local-context.md steer these steps: hypothesis_first (on), build_first (on), learning_mode (off).
learning_mode: pm_first) or the skill's reasoning (explain); with the default off the plugin synthesises as before.The plugin is used by more than IC Product Managers. A role changes defaults, never capabilities: every role gets the same 31 skills, the same gates and the same ten principles; the role sets where a run starts — its altitude, and since v3.6.0 its template, evidence emphasis and planning view. No role relaxes a gate, and no role becomes a persona prompt. The contract is references/role-profiles.md; every skill resolves it at Step 0i.

Description: Operational team reports from Jira. Pulls issues, processes them in Python (aggregations, Story Points, carried-vs-new, per-Assignee/Developer, changelog-based throughput), renders from a template, and offers charts.
Modes:
Ready), releases by stream (your product.release_streams — typically app / web UI / backend / services), flags ON/OFF, task list, closed-per-memberstatus CHANGED TO "Ready for test" BY <member>) / passed-to-review / tested, plus dynamics across days/weeks/sprints/months/quarters/yearsOutput: asked each run — Confluence (your space) and/or local md + xlsx. Visualizations are proposed (burndown, SP dynamics, status donut, load distribution) and built on accept. Built-in templates live in templates/built-in/ops-report/; custom ones via Template Library (artifact_type: ops-report).
Trigger phrases: "sprint plan/review report", "quarter results", "epic/feature/mission status", "how much did close this period", "team ops report", "report on releases / flags / story points"
Description: Maintains the canonical structure of work — maps missions/goals → initiatives → epics → features, enforces labeling (labels, names, links), finds gaps, and generates the roadmap tree.
Modes: audit / map / tree / onboard
Trigger phrases: "tidy up the structure", "label epics/features", "find labeling gaps", "build the roadmap tree", "link an epic to a goal"
Description: Plans and forecasts delivery of a project/mission/initiative beyond a single quarter — estimates the total volume of epics/features, builds a dependency graph with critical path, computes duration under a given team allocation %, and lays out a multi-quarter roadmap with rolling-reforecast.
Modes: forecast / sequence / roadmap / whatif / replan
Trigger phrases: "how long will the project take", "project roadmap", "epic sequence", "feature dependencies", "critical path", "replan the project"
Description: Builds a quarterly roadmap, reviews the previous quarter's delivery (plan-vs-actual), and stress-tests the plan against team capacity.
Modes: retro / plan / full / refresh
Trigger phrases: "build a quarterly roadmap", "quarterly planning", "plan-vs-actual for the quarter", "quarter retro", "is the quarterly plan realistic"
Description: Sprint pre-planning: derives focuses from the quarterly roadmap, highlights what's READY to pull (dependencies cleared), catches work-sequence violations, gathers per-member capacity, analyzes carryover risk, suggests assignees, and fills the sprint to capacity.
Modes: groom / plan / review / forecast
Trigger phrases: "plan the sprint", "sprint pre-planning", "what can we pull into sprint N", "what's ready from the backlog", "who takes the tasks"
Planning Suite shared references: planning-core.md, capacity-model.md, dependency-model.md, roadmap-artifacts.md, plus the shared Jira plumbing in references/jira-data-protocol.md (reused from product-reporter — complements reporting, does not duplicate it).
Description: Releases the plugin repository itself — one guided pipeline from "changes are ready" to "both remotes tagged, Release published, docs consistent". Every irreversible step (commit, push, merge, publish) is user-gated.
Pipeline: pre-flight guards (iCloud materialization, stale locks, clean tree) → scope & semver decision → bump in the 4 mandatory places (plugin.json, marketplace.json, README, CHANGELOG) → the registry copy rebuilt from the index, when the repo publishes one for a registry that syncs a subfolder → local validate-consistency.sh run → gated commit/push → PR → merge → GitHub Release with tag → mirror sync → post-release verification, optional Confluence changelog update, and vault release record.
Built-in pitfall guide: skills/release-manager/references/release-pitfalls.md — nine real failure modes with guards and recovery recipes (P1 iCloud-evicted git objects, P4 token without workflow scope, P6 diverged protected mirror, P7 stale raw CDN, and more).
Generic by design: works for any Claude plugin repo; org specifics (mirrors, VPN hosts, Confluence page) come from local-context.md → plugin_release.
Trigger phrases: "release the plugin", "prepare a release", "bump plugin version", "ship vX.Y.Z", "cut a release"
Description: PM attention dispatcher — the 4th height of the suite, above structure/quarter/sprint. Scans the PM's context (sprint cycle position, calendar meetings needing preparation, important unanswered emails, open action items from recent meetings, Jira tails), ranks the signals, and recommends 1–3 focuses with reasons, cost of delay, and a chained next step. Recommends and chains — never executes another skill's work; the PM decides.
Full scope (v0.3): all three horizons — now (daily focus), tactics (sprint-to-quarter: roadmap drift, stale backlog, A/B decisions, capacity and team events), strategy (quarter-to-year: 2–4 bets aligned to product goals/missions with a mandatory exclusions section) — plus journal, auto routing, board (live PM Focus Board with static fallback), and a headless contract for scheduled briefs (daily now, weekly tactics, quarterly strategy).
Key mechanics: deterministic ritual calendar (focus-cadence.md: "2nd Monday of the sprint → pre-planning"), signal registry with compact packets and TTL cache (focus-signals.md), two-stage "live letters" mail filter (automation never becomes a signal), meeting-prep detector with analytical-slice/deck chains, optional metrics health-check chain to product-analysis / cjm-research. All briefs persist to ~/.grow-pm/focus/ + Vault mirror (mandatory Step 7).
Trigger phrases: "на чому сфокусуватись", "що мені робити зараз", "фокус дня", "розбери мою пошту і календар", "daily focus", "morning brief"
Description: Owns the experiment lifecycle the pipeline used to drop after the A/B spec: proposed → specced → running → awaiting-readout → decided, with a persistent registry (~/.grow-pm/experiments/registry.yaml + vault mirror) and stale-test reminders (overdue runs, pending readouts, idle high-ICE hypotheses).
Modes: status (board by lifecycle state) / register / start (flag, platforms, split, dates) / readout (chains product-analysis A/B mode — verdicts only come from there) / decide (chains decision-log) / stale (also the weekly headless payload).
Trigger phrases: "які тести зараз біжать", "зафіксуй запуск тесту", "які тести чекають рішення", "нагадай про завислі тести", "experiment status"
Description: ADR-style records of key product decisions in the vault Decisions/ area — context, options considered, decision, rationale, consequences, evidence links. Answers "чому ми вирішили X?" from the accumulated log; supersede-flow preserves history.
Modes: log (default; also invoked by meeting-processor, experiment-tracker, planning skills) / search / revisit. Since v3.7.0 a record names its owner, rejected alternatives, base rate, revisit trigger and minority report, carries the owner's confidence line, and a revisit judges decision quality apart from the outcome.
Trigger phrases: "зафіксуй рішення", "чому ми вирішили…", "покажи рішення по…", "журнал рішень", "log this decision"
Description: Turns a raw feedback stream (support tickets, complaints, reviews, Q&A, NPS verbatims) into a ranked pain map: semantic theme clustering, frequency × severity × trend scoring, new/growing/declining theme detection against the previous run's baseline, and hypothesis seeds for brainstorm-features. Feedback text never leaves the session; PII is masked in verbatims.
Pipeline: intake (files / GDrive / Confluence / pasted, subagent fan-out) → Python normalize + coverage gate → cluster → score → report (Step T template) → chains → vault save (feedback-triage type, 22nd — the baseline for next run's trends).
Trigger phrases: "розбери відгуки/скарги", "тріаж фідбеку", "що болить покупцям/продавцям", "кластеризуй support-тікети", "топ проблем за місяць"
The second contour of the plugin: manager → people → goals → communication → development. These six skills share the People Context Protocol (Step P) — a persistent, vault-local profile per team member (situational-leadership D-type, 7-levels delegation, active goals, reporting cadence, 1-1 history, GTD-index trend, motivation/career signals). Person data is the highest-sensitivity tier: it lives in the vault People/ area (or ~/.grow-pm/people/) and is never published to Confluence/Jira or sent to external LLMs. Methodology lives in references/goal-frameworks.md, people-frameworks.md, reporting-3t5f.md, communication-frameworks.md, roi-frameworks.md, and people-context-protocol.md.
Description: Formulates and audits goals — the foundation of the People-contour. Picks the methodology (SMARTCBP for personal goals, OKR for product/direction), drafts 2–3 variants or audits a draft against the 8 SMARTCBP checks, cascades Mission→direction→team→person, drives goals to commitment (Tell and Sell), and records them on the person's profile. Pulls the Comparable baseline via product-reporter/Tableau.
Modes: formulate (default) / audit (8-check before→after table) / cascade / goal-letter.
Trigger phrases: "постав ціль", "проведи аудит цілі", "лист цілей", "каскад цілей", "OKR на квартал", "set a goal", "audit this goal"
Description: Prepares and analyzes 1-1 meetings — for the person, about the person (feedback/growth/trust), not tasks/status. Prepare builds the agenda from the profile (6 stages + seven "how" questions + NVC feedback drafts); Analyze turns a Fireflies transcript/notes into signals (motivation, burnout, career) + a manager-written ARCV follow-up + a profile update. Headless coverage: who hasn't been "touched" in > N weeks.
Modes: prepare (default) / analyze / coverage (headless). meeting-processor detects a 1-1 and redirects here.
Trigger phrases: "підготуватись до 1-1", "розбери 1-1", "з ким давно не було 1-1", "нотатки 1-1", "prepare for a 1-1"
Description: Reviews a team member on the People-contour's coordinates — goal achievement (3T5F Forecast QA), GTD-index, Hersey-Blanchard diagnosis (D-type → style + delegation level), and 1-1 signals — rendered into the employer's standard review template (past-period feedback + a 6–12-month SMARTCBP plan). Ends with one recommendation: development / style change / yellow card / promotion. Strictly local.
Trigger phrases: "провести перформанс-ревʼю", "оцінити співробітника", "піврічне ревʼю", "план розвитку для…", "is it time to promote"
Description: Designs the role before the vacancy — the goal letter (SMARTCBP on 3/6/12 months) comes first, the offer = goals + conditions. Produces a universal vacancy profile (Request / Role goals / Description / Conditions / Selection process) mapped onto the employer's HR-form fields, plus killer questions (past-experience, numeric + If/Then), a candidate-documents checklist, and a goal × experience evaluation table. On hire, creates the new person's profile (curator, S1, probation = offer goals).
Trigger phrases: "відкрити вакансію", "спроєктувати посаду", "профіль вакансії", "вітальні запитання", "оцінити кандидатів", "draft an offer"
Description: Guides parting ways with an underperformer — respectfully, on evidence. Gates on an evidence base (goals + reports; if absent → set them first), diagnoses "can't" vs "doesn't want", and runs the four-meeting algorithm (critical issues → measurable probation → results → sustainability), each with an ARCV follow-up, plus the dismissal script and a neutral team message. Strictly local; immediate dismissal only for theft/unlawful/ethics.
Trigger phrases: "допоможи звільнити", "офбординг", "випробувальний термін через недосягнення", "розмова про звільнення", "PIP"
Description: Audits the PM's operational load against the 7 levels of Appelo (real delegation starts at level 5), builds the audit table (activity / current level / candidate / target / blocker), picks delegates from profiles (D-type, GTD-index — levels 5–7 only for consistently high GTD), and lays out the S1→S4 transfer plan with dates. Computes hiring/delegation ROI when "no one to delegate to". Chains from focus-advisor when it sees PM overload.
Trigger phrases: "аудит делегування", "що можна делегувати", "я перевантажений операційкою", "рівні делегування", "план передачі"
Description: Walks a customer flow in the real product — web, desktop, an iPhone app on an Apple Silicon Mac (installed from the Mac App Store), Android via adb — step by step with a screenshot per step, friction graded per step, a local evidence pack and a research/walkthrough report with a flow strip. Modes: setup (readiness table + guided install + smoke test), walk, compare (surfaces or competitors, read-only there), audit. Everything about how to drive lives in references/app-drive-protocol.md (capability APP-DRIVE, driver table, preflight, step cycle, safety, degradation to a user-driven variant). Chains to brainstorm-features, requirements-creator, cjm-research, diagram-prototyper; called by cjm-research, product-research and requirements-creator.
Legs (v3.2.0): a scenario may run as several legs on declared test accounts (buyer → seller → buyer) with hand-off values between them and a write boundary resolved per account (stop-before-irreversible / sandbox-confirm / sandbox-auto / read-only); real money and actions visible to real users always stop.
Trigger phrases: "пройди флоу", "пройди шлях покупця в застосунку", "перевір зручність … у застосунку", "порівняй флоу на iOS і web", "налаштуй емулятор/adb для проходу", "walk the flow", "compare the flow across platforms"
Description: Registry and map of the products around yours — competitors, adjacent players, benchmarks, inspiration. scan lists what is installed on the Mac (including iPhone apps from the Mac App Store) and on an adb device and fills genre, rating and seller from the App Store; discover finds more by category and market through stores, web search and the optional connectors; characterize describes a product with sources; map renders the category map (research/landscape); research proposes a ranked list of products (no cap — you pick or name others) and starts the same flow on them through flow-walkthrough compare, product-research and brainstorm-features. Roles are per product of yours; bookmarks are read only with a per-scan yes; competitors stay read-only.
Trigger phrases: "карта конкурентів", "реєстр продуктів", "просканируй мої застосунки", "хто конкуренти й дотичні у сфері …", "додай продукт у реєстр", "досліди однакове флоу на конкурентах", "competitor map", "scan my apps"
Description: Connects your context to a shared-context provider — a team's or an organisation's core folder, or its MCP server. Resolves e-mail → team → role from the provider's role model (a dry run first: "I see you as pm in team Alpha; the bundle is N files"), asks whether you have your own Jira project (the write scope of every later task), copies the bundle relevant to you (in place when the core is already your copy), and proposes the core's context blocks for your local-context.md: the team block next to your own Team section, every other block in one reference section that never replaces your Product / OKR / CJM sections. Nothing is applied before you answer each discrepancy and confirm; the old file is backed up and the proposal ends with a changelog table. Then a five-question focus interview and a provider registration that the digest, Step 0.5 and the write boundary read. Refresh after a core update is the same run — usually one confirmation. With a context store a refresh ends with the slots (since v3.15.0): in one message each, the bindings of the core's blocks to slots for you to confirm, the divergences between repositories to settle, and — at a refresh — the blocks you had switched off that now have a slot, with a yes per block to bring one back (a no is offered again at the next refresh; references/context-protocol.md §5f). Everything provider-specific comes from the provider manifest (references/context-provider-protocol.md §3a, §9).
Trigger phrases: "connect shared context", "connect me to the team vault", "refresh my bundle", "enrich my context from the core", "add a context provider", «підключи мене до спільного контексту», «онови мій пакет з ядра», «збагати мій контекст блоками ядра»
Description: Since v3.17.0 it answers and searches from your whole context — your notes in the plugin's folder (the rest of your vault through a local index of it), every connected core, your local indexes, and the session's live sources when you ask or when your base has nothing direct — with or without a shared core: an answer with a source and a date for every statement, or a list of notes, and a «Де шукав» line naming each source; /grow-product-manager:find runs the same search. With a shared core it answers from it instead of from memory: who owns what, what a team or a module does, where a rule lives, which missions a team has, who someone is, what a term means. Reads the provider's own rules (playbook in its manifest) once per session and routes each question through its cards and graph — team index → card, module → page, metric card's fact row → actuals → a live source, mission → card → snapshot, person → registry → team — with the note path, the period and source of a number, and the snapshot date in every answer. A reference value is never presented as the current one; a provider that does not answer gets one line, then the local copy; meeting participants resolve to registry cards when the provider ships a resolver. It never writes into the provider's folders.

| Level | Condition | Capabilities |
|---|---|---|
| L0 | No vault configured | Plugin works as before, no vault features |
| L1 | Vault path configured | Read/write artifacts, file-based search |
| L2 | Vault + a search provider speaking vault/v1 (a local index or a shared-context provider, since v3.10.0) | L1 + full-text search, graph traversal, backlinks |
Configure one default vault for all products or separate vaults per product.
Run Plugin Configurator → Obsidian Vault step, or say "connect Obsidian Vault".
Your data lives outside the plugin, so it survives uninstalls, reinstalls and updates.
~/.grow-pm/ — local-context.md (your configuration), service data (experiment registry, focus journal, landscape registry, walkthrough evidence packs, shared-context provider registrations when no vault is set) and backups/ (the last 5 of each kind are kept).storage_root: templates and every artifact are saved there, and local-context.md and the knowledge library are mirrored into the plugin folder after every change (_System/, Knowledge/), so the vault can restore ~/.grow-pm/ if it is lost.~/.grow-pm/ (Templates/, knowledge-library/, people/, decisions/, …).Storage structure (~/.grow-pm/, abridged):
~/.grow-pm/
├── local-context.md # Plugin configuration
├── .schema-version # Schema version marker
├── knowledge-library/ # Curated sources, trust scores, glossary, style profile
├── Templates/ # Only without a vault — otherwise in the vault
├── experiments/ focus/ landscape/ walkthroughs/
├── providers/ # Shared-context provider registrations (no vault)
├── snapshots/ # Context store: one before every change, ctx undo restores (since v3.11.0)
└── backups/ # Before migrations and updates — last 5 kept
Key features: automatic backups before migrations and updates, schema versioning (.schema-version for ~/.grow-pm/, .vault-schema-version for the vault), and recovery from the vault mirror; the paths above are the real ones. Full protocol: references/persistent-storage.md.
The sixth contour, Context, groups context-connect, context-navigator and the context store. Your context can live as records — one note per section of local-context.md — in your vault ({storage_root}/_System/context/), next to a context card (INDEX.md, at most 200 lines: who you are, products, teams, vaults, providers, one line per record). local-context.md becomes the compiled view of the records: every skill reads it exactly as before, and anything written into it directly — by a skill, another plugin or you in Obsidian — is imported back into the records. Only a real conflict (the same section changed in the file and in its record) is a question.
ctx migrate shows the records and proves the compile gives your file back byte for byte, --apply moves it. ctx undo right after it moves back.~/.grow-pm/snapshots/), a journal of every change, atomic writes, one writer at a time, never a write into a provider's folder or block; a record that is missing on disk or still downloading (iCloud) stops a run before anything is written.context: records N · card M lines · in sync (or the edits waiting) at every session start.ctx read --skill <name>: the card plus only the fields and subsections its entry in references/context-manifest.yaml names, instead of the whole file.ctx invalidate marks a record no longer current, ctx archive moves it out of the file, removed records wait 30 days in a trash, ctx restore brings any of them back; every record knows when it was last verified, the digest counts stale ones and skills state their facts "as of" that date; ctx verify or the configurator's "Review stale records" confirms them.products, rank, core_root, endpoint, namespace, blocks_file) list the repositories a product draws blocks from; ctx repo list|status; ctx provider adopt records what each block was when the repository last gave it, plan compares the three versions, apply writes one pass with a snapshot and a journal line; a stdlib MCP client calls only read tools. references/context-provider-protocol.md §12.ctx explain (since v3.15.0) — a skill asks for a slot (team.members, product.key_metrics; the catalogue is references/context-slots.yaml), not for a heading, so your Team Members answers a request for Members, two different things under one name are two slots, and what a skill cannot find is named with where it looked. The resolver in ctx read takes every text that may answer a slot — yours, and the core's blocks bound to it wherever they sit — decides by the cascade (a core rule, then yours, then repositories by rank) and says whose each text is on a provenance line; a block no slot takes keeps answering by its heading, as before. shows where each slot came from and why it won; keeps what you decided in (a snapshot, a journal line, ); names bindings that do nothing, divergences between repositories and bindings worth making. §5f.The plugin ships with a built-in template library that every skill uses to produce structured, consistent artifacts — concepts, requirements, research reports, CJM analyses, epics, tasks, meeting notes, presentation outlines, and operational team reports (sprint/quarter/initiative/member). Templates are multilingual (all languages live in a single .md file), scoped per product, and resolved automatically with user opt-in.
When you invoke a skill that produces a deliverable (e.g., write-concept, requirements-creator, product-research, cjm-research, task-creator, product-analysis in report mode, diagram-prototyper for decks, meeting-processor for MoMs, brainstorm-features when saving, product-reporter for ops reports), the skill runs Step T — Template Resolution before starting the workflow. Step T:
templates.preference (auto, always_ask, or smart — default smart).<!-- template: {template_id}@{version} --> for traceability.| Scope | Location | Applies to |
|---|---|---|
| built-in | Templates/built-in/ | All products (shipped with plugin, read-only) |
| user-global | Templates/user/ | All products in your library (overrides built-in) |
| product-specific | Templates/product/<product_id>/ | One product only (overrides user-global + built-in) |
Every template is a single .md file with one YAML frontmatter block and one or more language blocks delimited by HTML comments (Obsidian-compatible):

Trigger with phrases like "add template", "list templates", "clone template", "restore template", etc.
Three-tier backup system to prevent data loss:
The plugin ships with a first-class integration with Claude's Design plugin, fronted by the design-bridge skill. Four upstream skills gain an optional Step D hook that offers to hand off results to design-bridge:
| Upstream skill | Design Bridge offers |
|---|---|
write-concept | deck (feature) or prototype (lo-fi / mid-fi) |
requirements-creator | handoff (a11y audit blocker) or prototype (hi-fi) or deck |
brainstorm-features | lo-fi prototype for top-1 hypothesis, or brainstorm readout deck |
product-research | research-highlights deck or research-enrichment (screenshots, DS refs) |
All brand specifics live outside this repo in your own local-context.md. The plugin reads:
product.figma.ds_file_key — Figma fileKey of your brand's Design System fileproduct.design_system_spec — path to your DS tokens yaml (colors, typography, components, contrast pairs)product.pptx_theme — path to your pptx theme yaml (logical layouts → real layouts, scales, palette)product.base_pptx — path to your base pptx template (Google Slides–compatible 10×5.625" recommended)product.brand.primary, product.brand.dark, product.brand.font_primary, product.brand.font_display — fallback tokens when the DS yaml is unavailable or partialSee local-context.example.md → Design System section for the full schema. If no brand config is set, design-bridge falls back to a neutral default (dark text on white, 4.5:1 contrast).
All design deliverables pass WCAG 2.1 AA QA before publish (see skills/design-bridge/references/a11y-checklist.md). Blocker rules by intent:
| Intent | A11y scope |
|---|---|
| deck | contrast on primary text + CTA is blocker; rest = warnings |
| prototype (lo-fi) | contrast + touch targets = warnings only |
| prototype (mid-fi / hi-fi) | full WCAG 2.1 AA blocker |
| handoff | full WCAG 2.1 AA + AAA stretches = blocker |
| research-enrichment | not audited |
Besides skills, the plugin ships four kinds of host-level components. They are declared in files the host parses, not described in prose — which is the point: the host enforces them.
Connectors — .mcp.json (12). The connectors the skills rely on: atlassian, figma (matched to your existing connection by URL), gmail, google calendar, google drive, fireflies (matched by name). Open the plugin → Connectors to see which are connected; a skill never searches the registry for a declared connector, it tells you which tab to connect it in. Tableau is not declared — it is a local MCP server you run yourself (see the Setup Guide); the skills detect it by pattern. The mapping key → connector → tool namespace lives in references/integration-strategy.md → Declared connectors. Since v3.3.0 six optional research connectors are declared as well — lazyweb, similarweb, mobbin, semrush, tavily, apify — used by product-landscape and flow-walkthrough when present, never required; each is your own account.
Agents — agents/ (3). Named subagents with an enforced tool set:
| Agent | Tools | Used by | Why it is an agent and not a prompt |
|---|---|---|---|
artifact-checker | Read only | requirements-creator, write-concept, task-creator, meeting-processor (opt-in) | The checker must not see the maker's context and must not browse or write — tools: makes that a host rule |
debater | none (tools: []) | brainstorm-features Step 3D and every skill that chains to Debate Mode | "No web, no vault, no files" is the protocol's core guardrail |
extractor | Read, Glob, Grep | fan-out steps in 8 skills (references/subagent-delegation.md) | Read-only by definition — safe under data-policy.md |
Every protocol keeps a fallback chain (named agent → general-purpose with the same prompt, reported → sequential in-session passes with a role reset, reported → inline with the reduced-independence marker), so nothing breaks in a host without plugin agents. Codex does not load agents/*.md; .codex/agents/*.toml ports the three for manual use there, generated from these files (check 14 keeps them paired, and since v3.8.0 keeps their instructions identical apart from the host note).
Commands — commands/ (7 commands). Service entry points that are user-only (disable-model-invocation: true) — the model never routes a conversation into them, which also keeps them out of trigger collisions. On Codex, which migrates commands into routable skills, the same guarantee comes from each description opening with "Typed command … only" (validator check 13, trigger-evals L):
| Command | Arguments | Does |
|---|---|---|
/grow-product-manager:status | [--verbose] | One-screen health: plugin version, where local-context.md was found and its schema version, vault level, declared connectors vs tools present in this session, deferred onboarding steps |
/grow-product-manager:config | validate | view | Straight into plugin-configurator's Validate / View mode |
/grow-product-manager:release | patch | minor | major | release-manager with the bump class pre-answered — for the plugin repo only |
/grow-product-manager:glossary-lint | [file] | Gate 3 team-language lint over a file or pasted text, standalone |
/grow-product-manager:setup | --show | --write-gate on|off | --write-gate pause <minutes> | Host-level toggles (the write gate, and a pause of its Jira/Confluence question for one bulk job, 1–240 minutes, that ends on its own) and whether the hooks environment is wired in this session |
/grow-product-manager:find | <запит> [--list] [--all] | The search of your context, typed (since v3.17.0): context-navigator's answer with a source and a date for every statement, --list for the notes instead, --all for the session's live sources too; ends with Де шукав: … |
/grow-product-manager:context | show [запис] | health | inbox | recheck | consolidate | overlay | history | Your context, typed (since v3.21.0): show — what the plugin knows about you, who wrote each record last and when it was verified, since v3.22.0 the source of each field; health — what wants looking after, each line with the command that fixes it; inbox — what skills learned, taken or rejected in one answer; since v3.22.0 recheck — your records against the connectors, consolidate — duplicates and stale dates as proposals; since v3.23.0 overlay — your corrections to a core, history — what changed, a note a month |
Hooks — hooks/hooks.json (3 hooks). All three run in the session's own environment and fail open — a script error can never block a session.
| Hook | Event | Does |
|---|---|---|
| Context digest | SessionStart (startup, resume, clear, compact) | scripts/session_start.py looks for local-context.md where this session can see it (~/.grow-pm/, connected folders under $HOME/mnt/*/, the working directory) and hands the model a short GROW_PM_SESSION digest: path, configurator version, user.language, product names, onboarding mode and deferred steps, whether vault / CJM / team language are configured. Step 0a of every skill becomes a lookup. Re-runs after context compaction, so the location survives long sessions. In a hosted session where the shell cannot see your files it says so — skills then read the file through device tools as before. |
| Write gate | PreToolUse on createJiraIssue, editJiraIssue, createConfluencePage, updateConfluencePage (on Atlassian MCP v2 the Confluence two are createConfluenceContent, updateConfluenceContent) | scripts/write_gate.py asks you to confirm before a content-bearing write, with the checklist the artifact quality gate expects to be done by then (gate report in chat, your go-ahead, not a sandbox). Metadata-only edits and an updateConfluenceContent dry run (dryRun: true) pass silently. A hook sees only the tool call, never the conversation — so this is a human-in-the-loop step, not an automatic judge. For one bulk job (a docs sync, a batch of tasks): /grow-product-manager:setup --write-gate pause <minutes> skips this question for up to 240 minutes and it comes back on its own; the provider-boundary and generated-region questions stay on. Opt-out: /grow-product-manager:setup --write-gate off. |
| Provider boundary (since v3.10.0) | PreToolUse on Write, Edit, MultiEdit, NotebookEdit | The same scripts/write_gate.py asks you to confirm before a file is written inside a shared-context provider's local folder — a team core you registered as read-only (references/context-provider-protocol.md §7). Paths the provider leaves to you (your focus note, your overlay folder) and every folder outside the provider's are never asked about. Same opt-out as the write gate; a write-gate pause does not cover it. |
The plugin is defined against Claude Code / Cowork and degrades by observed capability, never by host name — references/host-profiles.md is the contract, testing/host-matrix.md the per-skill result (derived from what each skill invokes; validator check 14 keeps it complete).
| Claude Code / Cowork | Codex CLI · Codex app | ChatGPT | Codex Cloud | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Skills (33) | ✅ | ✅ same namespace | ✅ (expected) | ✅ (expected) |
| Connectors | ✅ | ✅ URL-matched; name-matched ones (gmail, google calendar, google drive, fireflies) work in the app, fail at session start in the CLI | ✅ | ? |
Filesystem ~/.grow-pm/, vault | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ on web / mobile → storage_mode: session, artifact exported at the end; ✅ in the desktop app with a Local Project (attached folder, read/write) → behaves as the Codex column | own sandbox → via connector or the repo |
| Subagents (checker, debater, extractor) | ✅ automatic | ⚠️ only on explicit request → sequential in-session passes (.codex/agents/ for manual use) | ❌ | ⚠️ |
| Hooks (context digest, write gate) | ✅ | ⚠️ the SessionStart digest arrives once you trust the plugin's hooks in Codex (measured 2026-10-29, 0.153.2; the September pilot saw none — openai/codex#17331); the write gate is not measured → the skill's own confirmation before writes, as on every host | ❌ | ❌ |
| Commands | ✅ 7, user-only | ✅ 7, migrated to typed-only skills | ❌ | ⚠️ |
| Skill descriptions | full while the listing fits 1% of the context window; over it, the least-used skills show names only — descriptions stay within 400 characters (v3.10.1) | shortened to fit one shared ≈15k-character budget (~190 chars each on a host with 80 skills) — descriptions are ordered for that cut | ? | ? |
| Per-skill result | 33 full | 17 full / 16 degraded | 22 degraded / 11 n/a | 23 degraded / 10 n/a |
Codex card. .codex-plugin/plugin.json carries the interface block Codex and ChatGPT render — display name, category, brand color and the logo in assets/ (logo.png 512, composer-icon.png 128). Claude Code has no logo field, so it reads .claude-plugin/ only; validator check 1 keeps the two manifests' version and description identical.
Codex — install and update. Codex refreshes configured Git marketplaces when it starts (plugin startup and codex plugin list) and then refreshes the installed plugin cache — openai/codex#17425; it does not check periodically while the app stays open — openai/codex#38401. So a release reaches a running Codex only after a restart, or after the update commands further below. First install:
codex plugin marketplace add asiletskyi-pm-evo/grow-product-manager-plugin
codex plugin add grow-product-manager@grow-product-manager-plugins
After every release, if Codex stayed open (otherwise the next start does this itself):
codex plugin marketplace upgrade grow-product-manager-plugins
codex plugin add grow-product-manager@grow-product-manager-plugins
Hooks in Codex. Codex runs a plugin's hooks only once they are trusted — it keeps a hash per hook under [hooks.state…] in ~/.codex/config.toml (measured 2026-10-29, 0.153.2). Until they are, the context digest does not arrive and the skills find local-context.md themselves (Step 0a in full); nothing else changes, because before a Jira or Confluence write a skill confirms itself on every host.
marketplace add on a marketplace that is already configured does not refresh it — use upgrade. Run codex commands from a folder without a project-local .codex/config.toml (for example cd ~ first): Codex merges that file into its config, and a copy that declares a server by url where your global config runs it as a command stops every command with "url is not supported for stdio" (measured, codex-cli 0.153.2).
ChatGPT on web / mobile gets roughly half of the plugin — the artifact and research skills on connectors, with the artifact delivered in the chat and exported at the end; the storage-bound contours (Focus Board, experiment registry, the whole People contour, template and knowledge libraries) say so in one line and stop. The ChatGPT desktop app with a Local Project attaches local folders read/write (Projects docs) — Step 0-host then observes FS as present and the Codex column applies. Neither ChatGPT surface has been run with the plugin yet; the column is derived, not measured. Codex Cloud runs in its own sandbox: never assume prior state, always write results back through a connector or the repository.
The plugin includes reference materials for product management best practices and frameworks:
Key reference files in references/ (43 total — see the folder for the full list):
search-protocol.md — Step 0.5 of every skill (since v3.16.0): the request and its variants, ctx search, the rating, what is taken silently and what never is, doubt and conflict, live sources, the block of variants and the memory of your choicescontext-provider-protocol.md — shared-context providers (since v3.10.0): the vault/v1 contract, provider manifest and registration, routing across providers, freshness, the write boundary, the provider kit and the index schemajudgment-points.md — the judgment points (since v3.7.0): where the "your estimate first" question is asked and how it is switched off, the confidence-and-falsifier line and its scale, the decision-record fields, the resulting checkvocabulary-sets.md — read-only role vocabulary sets for headings and option labels, lowest precedence below the team glossary (since v3.6.0)role-profiles.md — the role layer (since v3.5.0): altitude L1–L4, eight role profiles as defaults, hats, Step 0i resolutionpm-mental-model.md — the judgment contract (since v3.4.0): the model of the user as a Product Manager in the AI era, ten principles, evidence classes; read by every skill at Step 0jhost-profiles.md — Step 0-host: six observable capabilities, four host profiles, the degradation matrix per contour, ${PLUGIN_ROOT} resolution, measured host gapslocal-context-protocol.md — Step 0: how every skill finds and loads local-context.md, and Step 0j (judgment contract); where a bare references/… lives on every hostfigma-designs-check.md — the Figma designs check shared by write-concept, requirements-creator, brainstorm-features and product-research (since v3.4.0)integration-strategy.md — MCP → Registry → Browser fallback chain for external toolsdata-policy.md — data confidentiality rules (internal data never leaves the session)data-integrity-protocol.md — verification gate against extrapolation and single-source claims; six gate checks, the sixth (since v3.8.0) assigning evidence classes and handing back claims the data cannot supportsubagent-delegation.md — when and how skills delegate fan-out work to subagentsdebate-protocol.md — role-based adversarial debate engine (roles, rounds, synthesis, ICE correction, guardrails)artifact-style-gate.md — artifact quality gate: source test for technical content, lists-over-prose, team-language Gate 3, Gate 4 judgment footer and evidence labels (4b since v3.8.0), maker–checker execution (an independent checker subagent verifies every artifact)Design Bridge references:

Two validators gate every push and PR (.github/workflows/validate.yml), and a third — the two-host smoke test — gates every release (it needs a logged-in Claude and an installed Codex, so it runs on the release machine, not in CI):
bash testing/validate-consistency.sh # 19 checks: versions, frontmatter, paths, components, hooks, cross-host packaging (agent ↔ Codex port), thin core, the context manifest, the MCP allow-list, fixture regions, search types
python3 testing/skill_lint.py # 30 named checks
bash testing/host-smoke.sh # loads the tree on Claude Code AND its HEAD on Codex CLI (+ checks that Codex runs your installed copy's hooks) — release blocker, run locally after the commit
Every check exists because the defect class it catches actually shipped, and each is verified by injecting that defect into a repo copy. testing/trigger-evals.md is meant to run on both hosts before a description-touching release (codex exec and claude -p --plugin-dir, single-line prompts, scored on the host's real configuration); a host not re-run is named in the CHANGELOG (Codex CLI since v3.1.0); testing/host-matrix.md is the skill × host result. When you find a new defect class, add a check — never a manual step (see testing/Testing-process.md).
testing/org-tokens.localThe org-data check keeps your organization's identifiers out of a public repo. Its generic layer (real Atlassian hosts, real-looking email domains, literal UUIDs, registry ids, internal hostnames) always runs. But a linter cannot know that a surname, a project key, or an internal tool name is yours — those go in a local denylist:
printf 'yourcorp.example\nPROJKEY\nSurname\n' > testing/org-tokens.local
python3 testing/skill_lint.py
The file is gitignored on purpose — a denylist that ships would carry the very strings it forbids. The trade-off is that it protects nothing until you create it, so create it before your first contribution, and add any identifier you purge from the tree to it in the same commit.
For detailed version history, release notes, and changelog information, see CHANGELOG.md.
Add the marketplace and install the plugin — in a Claude Code session:
/plugin marketplace add asiletskyi-pm-evo/grow-product-manager-plugin
/plugin install grow-product-manager@grow-product-manager-plugins
In Codex CLI or the Codex app:
codex plugin marketplace add asiletskyi-pm-evo/grow-product-manager-plugin
codex plugin add grow-product-manager@grow-product-manager-plugins
(Updates are manual on Codex — see Hosts above.)
Configure the plugin — say "налаштувати плагін" / "configure plugin" to run the Plugin Configurator. Basic setup takes ~3–5 minutes; Extended (~15–25 min) configures CJM, Vault, Templates, Planning, Focus and People. You can start Basic and add the rest later.
Choose your storage location — Obsidian Vault (recommended: templates and artifacts live together) or ~/.grow-pm/ standalone.
Connect your data sources (Jira, Confluence, Figma, Tableau, calendar, meeting tools) — the Configurator pre-checks what's available and works with whatever is connected.
Start using skills by typing trigger phrases in your Claude Code session. Not sure where to start? Say "на чому сфокусуватись" — focus-advisor reads your context and recommends.
Your configuration lives in
local-context.md, which is gitignored and never leaves your machine. Copylocal-context.example.mdif you prefer to fill it in by hand.

The model rates the candidates and takes silently at most three sections that are directly about the request, saying so in one line with source and date; something partial, outdated, a hub, a sensitive note outside the People contour, or two sources that disagree is never taken silently.
