Survey Design Skill
Overview
Specialized skill for designing and analyzing surveys for product validation. Enables product teams to gather structured feedback through well-designed surveys and interpret results with statistical rigor.
Capabilities
Survey Design
- Design PMF surveys (Sean Ellis test)
- Create NPS survey implementations
- Build feature validation surveys
- Generate survey question banks
- Design onboarding feedback surveys
- Create churn exit surveys
Question Engineering
- Write unbiased survey questions
- Design appropriate response scales
- Create skip logic and branching
- Optimize question order
- Balance survey length vs completion
Analysis
- Analyze survey response data
- Calculate statistical confidence in results
- Segment analysis by user attributes
- Identify response patterns and themes
- Generate actionable insights from data
Target Processes
This skill integrates with the following processes:
product-market-fit.js- PMF survey design and analysisbeta-program.js- Beta participant surveyscustomer-advisory-board.js- CAB feedback collectionjtbd-analysis.js- Jobs-based survey questions

Usage Example
const survey = await executeSkill('survey-design', {
surveyType: 'pmf',
objective: 'Measure product-market fit for new analytics feature',
targetAudience: 'Active users who have used analytics at least 3 times',
hypotheses: [
'Users find the analytics feature valuable for their workflow',
'Users would be disappointed if the feature was removed'
],
maxQuestions: 8
});
Dependencies
- Survey platform integrations
- Statistical analysis libraries
Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
gsd-tools
Central utility skill for GSD operations. Provides config parsing, slug generation, timestamps, path operations, and orchestrates calls to other specialized skills. Acts as the unified entry point that the original gsd-tools.cjs provided via its lib/ modules (commands, config, core, init).
model-profile-resolution
Resolve model profile (quality/balanced/budget) at orchestration start and map agents to specific models. Enables cost/quality tradeoffs by selecting appropriate AI models for each agent role.
verification-suite
Plan structure validation, phase completeness checks, reference integrity verification, and artifact existence confirmation. Provides the structured verification layer ensuring GSD artifacts are well-formed and complete.
state-management
STATE.md reading, writing, and field-level updates. Provides cross-session state persistence via .planning/STATE.md with structured fields for current task, completed phases, blockers, decisions, and quick tasks.
git-integration
Git commit patterns, formats, and conventions for GSD methodology. Provides atomic commits per task, structured commit messages, planning file commits, branch management, and milestone tag operations.
frontmatter-parsing
YAML frontmatter parsing and manipulation for .planning/ documents. Provides read, write, update, query, and validation operations on frontmatter blocks in GSD markdown artifacts.
