What is the main goal of the discover-problem skill?

It facilitates live sessions with stakeholders to uncover the real problem, root causes, and hypotheses before any code or requirements are written.

Can I use this for writing technical requirements?

No, this skill is strictly for discovery. It is designed to prevent 'solutionizing' too early. Once the discovery is complete, the output can be used as input for requirement-gathering tools.

Does this skill require a Google Drive account?

Yes, it uses the Google Drive MCP toolset to store discovery summaries. If Drive is not configured, it will provide the summary as session output instead.

How does it help with visuals?

It generates inline Mermaid diagrams for flows and HTML artifacts for interactive UI concepts during the session to help stakeholders visualize the problem space.

Collaboration Tools

Facilitates structured live discovery sessions to uncover root causes and define clear problem statements before requirements are written.

The Problem Discovery Facilitator skill empowers Product Managers and developers to lead effective stakeholder meetings by guiding them through a structured exploration of the problem space. It helps move beyond surface-level symptoms to identify root causes, surface hidden assumptions, and rank hypotheses while documenting the session in real-time. By producing a comprehensive discovery summary directly to Google Drive, it ensures that subsequent requirement gathering is based on a validated understanding of the actual business problem rather than premature solutions.
