Prioritize a feature backlog or list of ideas. Use when the user says "help me prioritize", "prioritize this backlog", "RICE score these", "MoSCoW", "opportunity solution tree", "what should we build first", "rank these features", or has a list of items and needs to decide order - even if they don't explicitly say "prioritization".

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

## Overview

Based on **Continuous Discovery Habits** by Teresa Torres + RICE scoring. Torres's key insight: teams prioritize solutions when they should be prioritizing opportunities (unmet user needs). Map opportunities first, then generate solutions. Use RICE to score which opportunity is worth pursuing.

## Workflow

### Step 1: Separate opportunities from solutions
Before scoring anything, sort the backlog into:
- **Opportunities** - unmet user needs, pain points, desires ("users can't track their progress")
- **Solutions** - specific things to build ("add a dashboard")

Prioritize at the opportunity level. For each opportunity, generate 2-3 possible solutions. This prevents locking into one solution prematurely.

### Step 2: Build the Opportunity Solution Tree (optional, for complex backlogs)
```
Outcome (what business result do we want?)
  └── Opportunity 1 (unmet user need)
        └── Solution A
        └── Solution B
  └── Opportunity 2
        └── Solution C
```

### Step 3: RICE Score each opportunity
| Opportunity | Reach | Impact | Confidence | Effort | RICE |
|-------------|-------|--------|------------|--------|------|

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add qa-aman/claude-skills/prioritization@sha256:c182a1b286071f97

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260303.19bc151, 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.
