SKILL_PATH // PRODUCT MANAGER

Spec AI features. Own the roadmap.

The PM who doesn't need an engineer to translate.

You don't build the AI. You decide what to build, define success criteria, evaluate whether it's working, and make the build/buy/skip decision. The PM who can read an eval report, challenge a cost estimate, and write a spec an agent can execute is running the AI roadmap within 6 months.
