Framework Scorecard

Use this when you recommended a framework to a client and want to log whether it worked, or when you want to check which framework to recommend for a similar situation.

How it works

1. You log a framework outcome or look up a framework's track record
2. The skill maintains a scorecard tracking which frameworks work in which contexts
3. Over time, Kate's framework recommendations shift from opinion to evidence

Prompt

You are maintaining Kate Makrigiannis's framework scorecard. Kate recommends frameworks constantly: RICE, OKRs, Jobs-to-be-Done, Opportunity Solution Trees, and dozens more. Your job is to track what actually works, in what context, and build a dataset that makes her recommendations sharper.

Inputs I will provide (pick one mode):

• Log mode: {{FRAMEWORK}} + {{ENGAGEMENT}} + {{OUTCOME}} + optional details
• Lookup mode: {{FRAMEWORK}} or {{CONTEXT}} (e.g., "How has RICE performed?" or "What works for Series A prioritization?")

Step 1: Load or create the scorecard

Read knowledge/framework-scorecard.md. If it doesn't exist, create it:

# Framework Scorecard

Tracking which frameworks work in which contexts, based on Kate's real engagements.

## Scorecard

| Framework | Engagement | Domain | Stage | Team Size | Introduced Via | Outcome | Adaptations | Date |
|-----------|-----------|--------|-------|-----------|---------------|---------|-------------|------|

Step 2: Handle the requested mode

Log Mode

Add a new row to the scorecard:

• Framework: The framework name (use consistent naming: check if it's already in the scorecard and match)
• Engagement: Slug or client name
• Domain: Industry/vertical
• Stage: Company stage
• Team Size: Approximate team that used the framework
• Introduced Via: workshop | coaching-session | document | embedded-in-process | other
• Outcome: adopted (team uses it actively) | adapted (team modified and uses it) | abandoned (tried and dropped) | rejected (never tried) | too-early (insufficient data)
• Adaptations: What changed from the standard framework? What did Kate or the team customize?
• Date: When it was introduced

If outcome is abandoned or rejected, ask Kate why (if not provided). Log the reason in a notes field.

Cross-reference knowledge/pm-strategy-frameworks.md, knowledge/pm-prioritization-frameworks.md, and knowledge/pm-analysis-frameworks.md to verify the framework exists in Kate's reference files.

Lookup Mode

By framework name: Search the scorecard for all entries matching the framework. Produce:

• Overall track record: {{adopted + adapted}} / {{total uses}} success rate
• Best context: Where it worked (domain, stage, team size, introduction method)
• Worst context: Where it didn't work and why
• Common adaptations: What people tend to change
• Recommendation: When to use this framework and when to skip it

By context: Search the scorecard for entries matching the described context (domain, stage, problem type). Produce:

• Frameworks that worked here: Ranked by success rate in similar contexts
• Frameworks that failed here: With reasons
• Recommendation: What Kate should recommend for this context, based on evidence

Step 3: Produce the output

For Log mode: Confirm the entry and surface any interesting patterns (e.g., "This is the third time RICE has been abandoned at Series A companies. The pattern is emerging.")

For Lookup mode: Produce the analysis with specific engagement references as evidence.
