The problem it solves#
Generic AI product work often sounds plausible but lacks company context. A PRD, launch plan, or positioning memo is only useful when it reflects the product, audience, market, voice, proof points, and technical constraints.
Teams can prompt those details every time, but that wastes effort and produces inconsistent results. A plugin with durable business context gives product work a shared foundation.
How it solves it#
Product-work skill system
The README describes 15 domain skills and 14 shared frameworks for product work.
Custom business context
Baseline Core guides users through context files for identity, voice, product, users, audience, competitive landscape, design, pricing, and technical details.
Claude plugin setup
The README instructs users to clone the repository, run /plugin-setup, and upload the customized version as a plugin to Claude.
