View and manage the organization manifesto. Shows identity, personas, beliefs, and principles.

Organization Manifesto

@~/.claude/skills/vision-management/SKILL.md

The manifesto defines the organization-level vision: who we are, who we serve, what we believe, and how we work. It is distinct from product-level vision (see /vision).

Process

  1. Check for manifesto: Look for manifesto.md in the current repo root.

  2. If no manifesto exists:

    • Ask if the user wants to create one
    • Guide through defining:
      1. Who We Are: Organization identity
      2. Who We Serve: 2-4 specific personas with context and constraints
      3. What They're Trying to Achieve: Jobs to be done in their voice
      4. What We Believe: Core beliefs including stance on AI-augmented development
      5. Guiding Principles: Decision-making rules
      6. Non-Goals: What we explicitly don't do
    • Create manifesto.md
  3. If manifesto exists:

    • Display formatted summary of the manifesto

Output Format

When displaying an existing manifesto:

## Who We Are

[Identity summary from manifesto]

## Who We Serve

- **[Persona 1]**: [Brief description]
- **[Persona 2]**: [Brief description]
- **[Persona 3]**: [Brief description]

## What They're Trying to Achieve

- "[Job to be done 1]"
- "[Job to be done 2]"
- "[Job to be done 3]"

## What We Believe

[Summary of key beliefs - especially AI-augmented development stance]

## Guiding Principles

1. [Principle 1]
2. [Principle 2]
3. [Principle 3]

## Non-Goals

- [Non-goal 1]
- [Non-goal 2]

Guidelines

  • The manifesto is the organization-level document - it applies across all products
  • Update rarely - this is foundational identity, not tactical direction
  • Product repos reference the manifesto but have their own vision.md
  • Use /vision for product-level vision management
