# Roadmap Communicator

Create clear roadmap communication artifacts for internal and external stakeholders.

## When To Use

Use this skill for:
- Building roadmap presentations in different formats
- Writing stakeholder updates (board, engineering, customers)
- Producing release notes (user-facing and internal)
- Generating changelogs from git history
- Structuring feature announcements

## Roadmap Formats

1. Now / Next / Later
- Best for uncertainty and strategic flexibility.
- Communicate direction without false precision.

2. Timeline roadmap
- Best for fixed-date commitments and launch coordination.
- Requires active risk and dependency management.

3. Theme-based roadmap
- Best for outcome-led planning and cross-team alignment.
- Groups initiatives by problem space or strategic objective.

See `references/roadmap-templates.md` for templates.

## Stakeholder Update Patterns

### Board / Executive
- Outcome and risk oriented
- Focus on progress against strategic goals
- Highlight trade-offs and required decisions

### Engineering
- Scope, dependencies, and sequencing clarity
- Status, blockers, and resourcing implications

### Customers
- Value narrative and timing window
- What is available now vs upcoming
- Clear expectation setting

See `references/communication-templates.md` for reusable templates.

## Release Notes Guidance

### User-Facing Release Notes
- Lead with user value, not internal implementation details.
- Group by workflows or user jobs.
- Include migration/behavior changes explicitly.

### Internal Release Notes
- Include technical details, operational impact, and known issues.
- Capture rollout plan, rollback criteria, and monitoring notes.

## Changelog Generation

Use:
```bash
python3 scripts/changelog_generator.py --from v1.0.0 --to HEAD
```

Features:
- Reads git log range
- Parses conventional commit prefixes
- Groups entries by type (`feat`, `fix`, `chore`, etc.)
- Outputs markdown or plain text

## Feature Announcement Framework

1. Problem context
2. What changed
3. Why it matters
4. Who benefits most
5. How to get started
6. Call to action and feedback channel

## Communication Quality Checklist

- [ ] Audience-specific framing is explicit.
- [ ] Outcomes and trade-offs are clear.
- [ ] Terminology is consistent across artifacts.
- [ ] Risks and dependencies are not hidden.
- [ ] Next actions and owners are specified.

What Are Claude Code Skills & Agent Plugins?

Claude Code skills (also called agent skills or coding agent plugins) are modular instruction packages that give AI coding agents domain expertise they don't have out of the box. Each skill includes:

  • SKILL.md — structured instructions, workflows, and decision frameworks
  • Python tools — 579 CLI scripts (all stdlib-only, zero pip installs)
  • Reference docs — 702 templates, checklists, and domain-specific knowledge files

One repo, thirteen platforms. Works natively as Claude Code plugins, Codex agent skills, Gemini CLI skills, Hermes Agent skills, Mistral Vibe skills, and converts to more tools via scripts/convert.sh. All 579 Python tools run anywhere Python runs.

Footnotes

  1. Hermes Agent is BYO-sync tier: the repo ships a pre-generated .hermes/skills/claude-skills/ tree, but you run python scripts/sync-hermes-skills.py once locally to install into ~/.hermes/skills/. Uses the same agentskills.io SKILL.md standard — no format conversion.

  2. Mistral Vibe is also BYO-sync tier: the repo ships a pre-generated .vibe/skills/claude-skills/ tree, run ./scripts/vibe-install.sh once locally to install into ~/.vibe/skills/. Same agentskills.io SKILL.md standard — no format conversion. Docs: https://docs.mistral.ai/mistral-vibe/agents-skills.
