What does /helm-plan do?

It prioritizes a product backlog using RICE, ICE, or Kano with written rationale per item, confidence levels, and an explicit deferred list.

How is /helm-plan different from /crest-roadmap?

/helm-plan is tactical backlog prioritization. /crest-roadmap is the strategic roadmap with competitive context.

AI Product Roadmap Prioritization

Product backlogs accumulate items faster than the team can ship them. Prioritization is the discipline that decides which items go now versus later, and most teams do it by intuition or by the loudest voice in the room. Both produce roadmaps that nobody can defend later when stakeholders ask why one item ranked above another.

The /helm-plan skill prioritizes the backlog with explicit scoring (RICE, ICE, or Kano depending on the team's preference), written rationale per item, an explicit list of items being deferred this cycle, and confidence levels per estimate. The artifact survives the inevitable scrutiny because every choice has reasoning.

What the prioritization includes

RICE/ICE/Kano scores per item. Written rationale for each item's position. Confidence level on each estimate (high if validated, medium if reasonable assumption, low if guess). Deferred list with reason per item. Cycle commitment (now/next/later or specific quarter).

/helm-plan

Prioritizes a product backlog using scoring frameworks: RICE (Reach x Impact x Confidence divided by Effort), ICE scoring, or Kano model categorization. Produces a ranked backlog with written rationale for every item's position, an explicit list of items being deferred this cycle, and confidence levels on each estimate.

When planning a quarter and the backlog needs to b…

/helm-brief

Turns a feature idea or user problem into a structured product brief: problem statement with supporting evidence, target user definition (not just demographic, but specific context), proposed solution with alternatives considered, success criteria as measurable outcomes rather than activities, and explicit out-of-scope items. The output is a document Apex can act on without a follow-up meeting.

HelmProduct Strategy

/helm-arbiter

Runs a structured scope arbitration session when product and engineering cannot agree on what is in or out of scope for a feature or sprint. Hears both positions, applies tradeoff analysis with explicit criteria, produces a documented decision with rationale, and specifies an escalation path if the decision is later contested.

When product wants to include something that engin…

CrestProduct Strategy

/crest-roadmap

Builds a strategic product roadmap with RICE-scored items, an explicit now/next/later structure, competitive context explaining why certain bets are being made over others, OKR alignment for each initiative, and a documented not-now list with reasoning. Designed to survive tough questions from engineers, stakeholders, or investors.

When planning a quarter or half-year and need prio…
