Set Direction¶
← Prompt Showcase · value chain: plan-to-perform
Set direction and track results — strategy through execution and review.
How this works¶
This area moves work through these stages:
assess → strategize → plan → budget → execute → review
You don't run the stages by hand. You just ask — in plain language — and the system routes you to the right tool. There are two kinds:
- Skills — a single capability ("write me social posts", "score this lead").
- Playbooks — a guided, multi-step workflow that chains skills into a whole outcome.
Reach for a skill for one task; reach for a playbook for a whole outcome.
Playbooks — guided workflows for this area¶
| Playbook | When you'd run it |
|---|---|
| Plan my next 12 months | You want a year mapped into a concrete plan |
| Quarterly Replan | It's quarter-end and the plan needs resetting |
| Business Owner Operating System | You want a repeatable operating rhythm as the owner |
| Operations optimization | Operations are messy and you want them streamlined |
| Weekly Business Review | You want a weekly rhythm for reviewing the business |

How to trigger — just say it¶
No commands to memorize. Speak in plain language and the system picks the tool:
- "Everything feels urgent — help me decide what matters." → owner-priority-system
- "Give me a quick health check on the business." → business-pulse
- "How big is my market, really?" → market-sizing-analysis
- "Help me map out my next 12 months." → the Plan my next 12 months playbook
Skill or playbook?
🟢 Start with single asks (one skill). 🔵 When you want a whole outcome, run a playbook — it sequences many skills for you.
