Product Podcasts Distilled Into Claude Code Skills
This repo packages 86 product-management frameworks from Lenny's Podcast into markdown skills so Claude Code can coach PMs through hiring, roadmaps, and shipping.

What it does Lenny’s Skills is a collection of 86 markdown files that capture advice and frameworks from more than 100 episodes of Lenny’s Podcast. Each file acts as a specialized context prompt for Claude Code, nudging the agent to apply specific product-management practices—like writing PRDs, evaluating candidates, or designing growth loops—when it detects a matching task. It is essentially a curated knowledge base that turns podcast wisdom into persistent, queryable agent memory.
The interesting bit The project treats audio interviews as raw training data for an IDE-bound agent rather than content for human ears alone. By compressing hours of conversation with leaders like Marty Cagan and Elena Verna into structured markdown, it creates a content layer between a media property and your codebase. The heavy lifting here is editorial curation, not code.
