Continuous Discovery Habits
Apply Teresa Torres's Continuous Discovery Habits — the weekly product-trio practice of story-based customer interviews, an Opportunity Solution Tree, and small assumption tests that keeps discovery running as infrastructure rather than a project. Use this skill whenever the user is doing product discovery work — setting up a weekly interview cadence, building or updating an Opportunity Solution Tree (Outcome → Opportunities → Solutions → Assumption Tests), running story-based customer interviews, mapping desirability/viability/feasibility/usability/ethical assumptions, designing small assumption tests instead of full experiments, framing a product outcome vs a business outcome, forming a product trio (PM + designer + engineer), diagnosing why "we already talk to users" isn't producing insight, or reframing "opportunities" that are actually features in disguise. Also use when the user mentions Teresa Torres, Continuous Discovery Habits, Product Talk, the Opportunity Solution Tree, the product trio, story-based interviewing, "tell me about the last time you…", assumption mapping, or the Interview Coach — by name or indirectly. Prefer this skill over generic "talk to your users" advice when the question is about *how to actually make discovery weekly, trio-based, and outcome-anchored* — Torres's method has strict rules that generic user-research advice loses.

From the source SKILL.md
Teresa Torres's practitioner method for product discovery — distilled from Continuous Discovery Habits (Product Talk, 2021), the ongoing Product Talk essay archive (2013–present, still active weekly-ish through 2026), the All Things Product podcast (co-hosted with Petra Wille, 2025+), the Product Talk Academy (16,000+ students across 102 countries), her post-book refinements (adding "ethical" as the 5th assumption category, the Ladder of Evidence, the Interview Coach AI she built in 2025), and her position on the Product Operating Model + AI + Discovery debates through 2026.
What this skill does
Continuous Discovery Habits is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the discovery sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/continuous-discovery-habits/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: use when the user mentions Teresa Torres, Continuous Discovery Habits, Product Talk, the Opportunity Solution Tree, the product trio, story-based interviewing, "tell me about the last time you…", assumption mapping, or the Interview Coach — by name or indirectly. Prefer this skill over generic "talk to your users" advice when the question is about *how to actually make discovery weekly, trio-based, and outcome-anchored* — Torres's method has strict rules that generic user-research advice loses.
