AI-Native Estimation Signal Schema

Foundation data contract for ticket estimation across all PM plugins. Every estimation skill now reads and writes the same estimation: YAML block with standardized fields for scope, confidence, methodology, and uncertainty modeling. Linear primitives (Issue.estimate, labels) mirror the schema for native filtering and burndown while YAML frontmatter remains the source of truth.

[7.0.0] — 2026-05-11

⚠ BREAKING CHANGES

catalyst-pm is now a focused strategy and definition plugin with 12 skills. 30 skills have moved to companion plugins:

  • 12 skills → catalyst-pm-ops: analyze-cycle, analyze-milestone, groom-backlog, create-tickets, sync-prs, daily-plan, weekly-plan, weekly-review, report-daily, status-update, slack-message, connect-mcps
  • 4 skills → catalyst-meeting-hygiene: meeting-agenda, meeting-notes, meeting-cleanup, meeting-feedback
  • 14 skills → catalyst-discovery: user-interview, user-research-synthesis, interview-guide, journey-map, competitor-analysis, retention-analysis, activation-analysis, feature-metrics, experiment-metrics, experiment-decision, metrics-framework, prototype, prototype-feedback, napkin-sketch

The following skills are permanently removed (not moved):

  • generate-ai-prototype — subsumed by prototype in catalyst-discovery
  • interview-prep — PM job-search tool, out of scope for project plugins
  • interview-feedback — PM job-search tool, out of scope for project plugins
  • context-daily — incomplete; dependencies (github-metrics, thoughts-metrics, context-analyzer) do not exist

7 support agents removed (only linear-research remains): context-analyzer, github-metrics, thoughts-metrics, calendar-analyzer, health-scorer, code-classifier, linear-metrics.

Skills retained in catalyst-pm (12): prd-draft, prd-review-panel, ralph-wiggum, define-north-star, impact-sizing, prioritize, write-prod-strategy, expansion-strategy, strategy-sprint, decision-doc, launch-checklist, feature-results

Plugin Restructure & Meeting Hygiene

The bloated catalyst-pm plugin splits into four focused tools: catalyst-pm (12 strategy/PRD skills), catalyst-pm-ops (Linear integration and cadence), catalyst-meeting-hygiene (agenda through feedback workflows), and catalyst-discovery (research and prototyping). Skills moved to new plugin paths like /catalyst-pm-ops:daily-plan and /catalyst-meeting-hygiene:meeting-notes, so update any hardcoded references in your workflows.
