This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed

About this skill
What it does
This skill facilitates the creation of a structured "Opportunity Solution Tree" (OST). It helps users break down high-level opportunities into smaller, more manageable problems and then generate potential solutions for each problem. The resulting tree visually represents the relationship between opportunity, problems, and solutions, ensuring alignment with user needs and business goals.
When to use it
- Strategic Planning: To clarify a broad strategic goal (e.g., "Increase customer engagement") into actionable steps.
- Problem Definition: When facing an ambiguous problem or challenge where the root causes are unclear.
- Ideation & Solution Generation: As a framework for brainstorming and organizing potential solutions to identified problems.
- Prioritization: To evaluate and prioritize solution options based on their impact on the underlying problems and opportunity.
Key capabilities
- Breaks down high-level opportunities into specific problems.
- Generates potential solutions for each problem identified.
- Visually structures relationships between opportunity, problems, and solutions in a tree format.
- Ensures alignment with user needs and business goals.
Example prompts
- "Create an Opportunity Solution Tree to address the opportunity 'Improve employee retention.'"
- "I want to explore solutions for the problem 'Low adoption of our new feature.' Can you build an OST?"
- "Let's use an OST to define the problems contributing to 'Declining website traffic'."
Tips & gotchas
The effectiveness of this skill relies on clear and specific opportunity statements. Starting with a well-defined opportunity will lead to a more useful and actionable Opportunity Solution Tree.
