Discover external customer problems and product requirements from human stakeholders. Assess customer evidence before investing, or map who to talk to, ask questions that surface hidden assumptions, detect gaps in real time, resolve conflicts, and translate conversations into structured SDD specs. Phase 0 upstream of Spec-Driven Development. Also grill a PRD, interrogate a proposal, poke holes in a spec, or interview its author about an existing draft, one consequential question at a time. Do…

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

# Product Discovery — Stakeholder Map

Choose the entry by the decision at stake. For an existing draft, preserve the
artifact-first entry below. For external demand or problem uncertainty, load
[customer/problem discovery](references/customer-problem-discovery.md) before
turning an idea into requirements. For internal requirements, begin with stakeholder mapping:

| Reference | Load when | File |
|-----------|-----------|------|
| Stakeholder Mapping & Sequencing | You need to decide who to interview and in what order | `references/stakeholder-mapping.md` |
| Interview Protocol Design | You're designing a question stack for a specific stakeholder type | `references/question-patterns.md` |
| Gap Detection Techniques | You're preparing to recognize what stakeholders don't say | `references/gap-detection.md` |

## Pipeline: Phase 0 — Discovery

```
RAW NEED → [MAP] → [INTERVIEW] → [SYNTHESIZE] → [DISTILL] → [VALIDATE] → SPEC.md
              |           |              |            |            |
         Who to       What to        Resolve      Convert to   Stakeholder
         talk to      ask            conflicts    structured   review

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add magnus919/agent-skills/product-discovery@sha256:db5e01d5902e5f9d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261101.6eeef1d, 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.
