Files
Prioritize Feature Backlog
Evaluate and rank a backlog of feature ideas to identify the top 5 to pursue.
Context
You are helping prioritize features for $ARGUMENTS.
If the user provides files (spreadsheets, backlogs, opportunity assessments), read and analyze them directly.
Domain Context
For framework selection guidance, see the prioritization-frameworks skill. Key recommendations:
Opportunity Score (Dan Olsen, The Lean Product Playbook) is recommended for evaluating customer problems: Opportunity Score = Importance × (1 − Satisfaction), normalized to 0–1. High Importance + low Satisfaction = best opportunities. Prioritize problems (opportunities), not solutions.
ICE is recommended for quick scoring of initiatives: Impact (Opportunity Score × # Customers) × Confidence × Ease. RICE adds Reach as a separate factor for larger teams.
Instructions
The user will describe their product objective, desired outcomes, and provide feature ideas. Work through these steps:
1. Understand priorities: Confirm the product objective and success metrics.
2. Evaluate each feature against:
- Impact: How much does it move the needle on desired outcomes? Consider Opportunity Score if customer data is available.
- Effort: How much development, design, and coordination is required?
- Risk: How much uncertainty exists? What assumptions need testing?
- Strategic alignment: How well does it fit the product vision and current goals?
3. Recommend the top 5 features with:
- Clear ranking (1-5)
- Brief rationale for each selection
- Key trade-offs considered
- What was deprioritized and why
4. Present as a prioritization table if helpful.
Think step by step. Save as markdown if the output is substantial.
