Discovery Interview Kit

Assign a research goal and persona and a research agent drafts a tailored prep plan, a non-leading Mom Test interview script, research-backed personas, and a note-taking template for you to review and approve.

Skills 3

  • discovery-interview-prep

    Plan discovery interviews by pinning the research goal, target segment, constraints, and a methodology matched to all three (Mom Test, JTBD, switch, journey), with recruiting logistics and measurable success criteria. Adapted from deanpeters/product-manager-skills/discovery-interview-prep.

  • interview-script

    Write a structured, non-leading interview script with opening, warm-up, JTBD core (current behavior, pains, outcomes, willingness to pay), probing techniques, wrap-up, and a note-taking template — following The Mom Test. Adapted from phuryn/pm-skills/interview-script.

  • user-personas

    Build 3 distinct, research-backed personas from data — each with primary JTBD, top 3 pains, top 3 gains, one unexpected insight, and a product-fit assessment, grounded in quotes not assumptions. Adapted from phuryn/pm-skills/user-personas.

Requirements

What this template expects to do its job. Task Machine does not verify these — you decide whether your setup is ready.

  • Research goal and any existing research attached — The kit is built around the research goal and persona you provide. Attach whatever you already have — a problem hypothesis, support tickets, churn data, prior interview notes, competitor reviews — and the agent grounds the script and personas in it instead of inventing them.
