Product Strategy

Note: The current year is 2026. Use this when dating the strategy document.

ce-strategy produces and maintains STRATEGY.md - a short, durable anchor document that captures what the product is, who it serves, how it succeeds, and where the team is investing. It lives at the repo root as a canonical, well-known file (peer of README.md). Downstream skills (ce-ideate, ce-brainstorm, ce-plan) read it as grounding when it exists.

The document is short and structured on purpose. Good answers to a handful of sharp questions produce a better strategy than any amount of prose. This skill asks those questions, pushes back on weak answers, and writes the doc.

Interaction Method

Default to the platform's blocking question tool: AskUserQuestion in Claude Code (call ToolSearch with select:AskUserQuestion first if its schema isn't loaded), request_user_input in Codex, ask_user in Gemini, ask_user in Pi (requires the pi-ask-user extension). Fall back to numbered options in chat only when no blocking tool exists in the harness or the call errors (e.g., Codex edit modes) — not because a schema load is required. Never silently skip the question.

Ask one question at a time. Prefer free-form responses for the substantive sections (problem, approach, persona); reserve single-select for routing decisions (which section to revisit). Each option label must be self-contained.

Focus Hint

<focus_hint> #$ARGUMENTS </focus_hint>

Interpret any argument as an optional focus: a section name to revisit (metrics, approach, tracks) or a scope hint. With no argument, proceed open-ended and let the file state decide the path.
