metrics-tree skillA

metrics-tree is agent-read markdown (skill) from rizwanzafaris/product-manager-os: Build the chain from a north star metric to its input metrics, to one definition per metric, to a dashboard specification someone can read in a minute. Use when a product has no agreed north star or the one it has fails the vanity test, when two teams report the same metric with different numbers, before OKRs or an instrumentation spec are written, or when a dashboard has decayed into a wall of tiles. Takes the value statement, what is instrumented, the analytics platform, and the audiences; ret.

What the file says

# Metrics Tree: from north star to a dashboard someone can read

Metrics fail as a slogan and a wall. The north star is named before anything measures it, the inputs have no owners and no causal claim, every team computes "active" its own way, and the dashboard has forty tiles that answer no question anyone asked. This skill builds the tree from the top, defines each metric once, and specifies a dashboard around the questions its audience actually brings.

## Files this skill drives

- [../../templates/planning/north-star-metric.md](../../templates/planning/north-star-metric.md), the metric, the input tree, the guardrails, the cadence
- [../../templates/operate/metrics-dictionary.md](../../templates/operate/metrics-dictionary.md), one row per metric
- [../../templates/operate/dashboard-spec.md](../../templates/operate/dashboard-spec.md), one per audience
