Builds a pricing model, packaging/tier structure and willingness-to-pay research plan, then grades your existing pricing page or plan. Use when you ask 'how much should we charge', 'what should our pricing model be', 'seat vs usage vs outcome pricing', 'good-better-best tiers', 'what goes in the free plan', 'should we raise prices', 'freemium vs free trial', or 'how do we price our AI product'. Draws on 199 insights from 79 Lenny's Podcast guests including Madhavan Ramanujam, Naomi Ionita and Patrick Campbell.

Quality

Content

82%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

An actionable, well-routed playbook that gives concrete survey scripts, thresholds, a deliverable template, and a grading rubric, with a clear diagnose-route-run workflow. Its weaknesses are mild: some duplicated quote content, and three plays missing the 'Done when' checkpoints the others have.

Suggestions

Drop the inline 'Receipts' quotes (they duplicate references/quotes.md, which is already linked under 'Go deeper') and keep only the pointer, cutting redundant tokens from the conciseness budget.

Add a 'Done when' exit criterion to Plays 4, 6, and 7 so every play has the explicit validation checkpoint that Plays 1, 2, 3, and 5 already include.

Consider moving the 8-criterion grading matrix to references/frameworks.md (or keeping only the criterion names inline) so the body stays closer to an overview with well-signaled one-level-deep references.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

The body is dense and assumes competence — nearly every line carries a benchmark, threshold, or named source ("Self-serve card monetization caps around $10,000 a transaction") — but the "Receipts" section duplicates references/quotes.md and the intro repeats the frontmatter's "199 insights from 79 Lenny's Podcast guests" line, so minor trimming remains.

4 / 5

Actionability

Fully executable instruction-level guidance: verbatim Van Westendorp survey questions, exact thresholds ("If 60-70% pick the cheapest tier you gave away too much", "free-to-paid under 5% will not sustain a company; aim above 7%"), a situation-routing table, a fill-in deliverable template, and a 1/3/5 grading rubric — copy-paste ready for the common cases.

5 / 5

Workflow Clarity

The Diagnose → Pick the play → Run it sequence is clear and 4 of 7 plays end with explicit "Done when" validation checkpoints, but Plays 4, 6, and 7 lack exit criteria, fitting the 4 anchor ('most checkpoints present; minor validation gaps') rather than 5.

4 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Both referenced files (references/frameworks.md, references/quotes.md) are real, one level deep, and clearly signaled with what each contains in a "Go deeper" section; however, the body inlines substantial detail beyond an overview — including the Receipts quotes that duplicate references/quotes.md — leaving minor organization gaps.

Description

95%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong description with explicit what-and-when structure and an excellent set of natural trigger phrases that mirror real user questions. The only deduction is the second-person 'Use when you ask' clause, which violates the third-person voice guideline.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

The description lists multiple concrete actions ("Builds a pricing model, packaging/tier structure and willingness-to-pay research plan, then grades your existing pricing page or plan"), matching the 5 anchor, but the second-person phrasing "Use when you ask 'how much should we charge'" triggers the rubric's 1-point voice penalty.

4 / 5

Completeness

Both parts are explicit: a clear what ("Builds a pricing model, packaging/tier structure and willingness-to-pay research plan, then grades...") and a concrete when-clause ("Use when you ask...") listing eight trigger phrases, exactly matching the 5 anchor's structure.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Trigger phrases are the literal questions users would ask: "'how much should we charge'", "'should we raise prices'", "'freemium vs free trial'", "'good-better-best tiers'", "'how do we price our AI product'" — comprehensive synonym coverage with no common variation missing, so it sits at the 5 anchor rather than 4.

5 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

It occupies a clear niche (pricing model, tier packaging, willingness-to-pay research, pricing-page grading) with triggers unlikely to fire for unrelated skills, matching the 5 anchor's 'clear niche with distinct triggers'.
