The should-this-even-be-AI gate — decide where an LLM belongs versus deterministic rules, frame error tolerance as a product decision, and climb the capability ladder (rules → prompt → RAG → fine-tune) only as far as the problem demands. Stops the "AI everywhere" anti-pattern before it reaches the spec. Hosted by product-strategist / ai-prompt-architect.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# AI Use-Case Scoping — is this even an AI problem?

**Core principle.** An AI PM's job is **not** to apply AI everywhere — it is to
find the few problems where AI is genuinely *the right tool* and keep everything
else deterministic. Most "AI problems" are the wrong problem held by someone with
a hammer looking for a nail. **Start in the problem space, not the solution
space.** AI that solves a problem rules already solve — better, cheaper, and
correctly — is a liability: it costs more per call, fails non-deterministically,
and erodes trust the moment it's wrong about something a regex would have nailed.

This is the gate that runs *before* `ai-evals` (which measures a feature you've
decided to build) and before any tech spec. It answers two questions: **(1)
should this surface be AI at all?** and **(2) if so, how far up the capability
ladder do we climb?**

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add vandanaajaydubey111/great-pm/ai-use-case-scoping@sha256:9897b611bb61816d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260721.86de099, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
