Jobs to be Done
Find the progress a person is trying to make, the forces around the switch, and the language they already use.
What is the person hiring this product to change?
A narrow job with a visible boundary
Use it when a request arrives as a feature, solution, or vague audience assumption rather than an evidenced job.
Input
An interview, customer reviews, sales notes, or a focused conversation with the product owner.
Outputs
- A machine-readable JTBD corpus
- Switch forces and evidence references
- A one-page brief and messaging angles
Boundary
Creator estimates remain labeled as estimates. The skill does not turn synthetic evidence into customer research.
Invocation
humane:jtbd
See the decision change
When several agents are working, I need to see which decision is waiting for me so I can intervene before work drifts.
The feature becomes a progress statement with a situation and desired outcome.
1 / 2- Feature request
Users need an AI dashboard.
When several agents are working, I need to see which decision is waiting for me so I can intervene before work drifts.
- Switch forces
People want a better design tool.
Push: generic output keeps returning. Pull: a repeatable review method. Habit: polishing the first draft. Anxiety: losing control of the final decision.
