How to use Value Proposition Designer in your AI agent

Install and use the Value Proposition Designer skill in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, and Windsurf — with sample prompts.

What you'll get

This skill helps you design a clear value proposition for your product or feature using a structured 6-part framework: Who it's for, Why they need it, What their current situation is, How you solve it, What improves afterward, and what Alternatives exist. It's built for PMs, founders, and marketers who need to articulate why customers should choose their product.
