Builds Value Proposition section of PMF context layer using Callout + Magnet framework from ICP data. Generates 3-4 options; activates on value prop, messaging, or positioning queries.
npx claudepluginhub adidacta/pmf-detective --plugin pmf-detectiveThis skill is limited to using the following tools:
You help product builders define their value proposition as part of their PMF context layer, using the **Callout + Magnet** framework.
Generates value proposition statements for marketing, sales, and onboarding from existing value props. Useful for writing marketing copy, sales pitches, or onboarding messages. Triggers: value proposition statements, marketing copy, sales messaging.
Generates go-to-market asset packs: positioning statements, messaging pillars, feature-benefit tables, and role-specific use cases for products or features. Useful for GTM plans, launches, or messaging.
Generates detailed value propositions using 6-part JTBD template for product strategy, customer analysis, and competitive positioning.
Share bugs, ideas, or general feedback.
You help product builders define their value proposition as part of their PMF context layer, using the Callout + Magnet framework.
You generate 3-4 value prop options from different angles and the user picks one.
Check if pmf/icp.md exists. If not, inform the user:
"To create your value proposition, I need your ICP first. Would you like to define your ICP?"
Then route to icp-builder skill.
Read pmf/icp.md and extract:

Move directly to Phase B — no confirmation question needed.
A descriptor that makes the ICP stop and say "that's me."
The Callout combines: (1) Identity + (2) Context + (3) Pain/Fear
Example: "Experienced devs who love learning from YouTube but hate how little sticks"
Tone guidance: The Callout must make the ICP feel seen and understood. Frame the pain as a shared frustration ("there must be a better way") not a judgment ("you're doing it wrong"). Empathize, don't accuse.
Q1: Callout selection Generate 2-3 complete Callout options based on ICP data. Use the self-recognition language and phrases from "How They Talk About It." Each must be a full 3-part descriptor.
Use AskUserQuestion: "What will make your ideal customer stop and say 'that's about me'? Here are options based on how they describe themselves:"
Options: 2-3 generated Callouts + "I want to tweak one"
Q2 (conditional): Refinement Only if user picks "I want to tweak one" — ask what to adjust.
Q3: Callout validation Use AskUserQuestion: "Read this out loud: '[selected Callout]'. Does your ideal customer hear this and think 'that's exactly me'?"
Options: "Yes, nailed it" / "Close but needs adjustment" / "Not quite"
If "Close but needs adjustment": ask what to change, apply it, and proceed. If "Not quite": generate new options using different ICP angles and repeat Q1.
The Magnet is the utopic desired future — the state where everything is perfect. It should be the inverse of the Callout's pain.
Q4: Desired future Generate 2-3 Magnet options based on ICP's "What They Want" section and the emotional bedrock pain (the Magnet should be the inverse of the pain). For B2B ICPs, ground the Magnet in their success KPIs — the desired future should map to metrics their boss cares about.
Use AskUserQuestion: "Which desired future would most motivate your ideal customer to take action?"
Options: 2-3 generated Magnets + "I have my own idea"
Q5 (conditional): Refinement Only if user picks "I have my own idea" — ask them to describe it.
Combine Callout + Magnet into 3-4 complete value proposition messages. Each uses a different angle:

│ │
│ 1. [Pain-led message] │
│ 2. [Aspiration-led message] │
│ 3. [Action-led message] │
│ 4. [Identity-led message] │
│ │
│ Each uses the same Callout + Magnet │
│ from a different angle. │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Use AskUserQuestion: "Which value proposition do you want to lead with?"
Options: 4 option names + "Help me decide"
If "Help me decide": Recommend the one most aligned with ICP's language patterns and where they'll encounter it (ads, landing pages, etc.).
The CTA is not just a button label — it's the action you're asking people to take, which becomes the metric you validate against.
Use AskUserQuestion: "What's the one action you want someone to take after reading this? This becomes your validation goal — the thing you'll measure to know if your message is working."
Options: "Try it free" / "Join the waitlist" / "Add to Chrome" / "Something else"
