Roadmap Communicator

Create clear roadmap communication artifacts for internal and external stakeholders.

When To Use

Use this skill for:

  • Building roadmap presentations in different formats
  • Writing stakeholder updates (board, engineering, customers)
  • Producing release notes (user-facing and internal)
  • Generating changelogs from git history
  • Structuring feature announcements

Roadmap Formats

  1. Now / Next / Later
  • Best for uncertainty and strategic flexibility.
  • Communicate direction without false precision.
  1. Timeline roadmap
  • Best for fixed-date commitments and launch coordination.
  • Requires active risk and dependency management.
  1. Theme-based roadmap
  • Best for outcome-led planning and cross-team alignment.
  • Groups initiatives by problem space or strategic objective.

See references/roadmap-templates.md for templates.

Stakeholder Update Patterns

Board / Executive

  • Outcome and risk oriented
  • Focus on progress against strategic goals
  • Highlight trade-offs and required decisions

Engineering

  • Scope, dependencies, and sequencing clarity
  • Status, blockers, and resourcing implications

Customers

  • Value narrative and timing window
  • What is available now vs upcoming
  • Clear expectation setting

See references/communication-templates.md for reusable templates.

Release Notes Guidance

User-Facing Release Notes

  • Lead with user value, not internal implementation details.
  • Group by workflows or user jobs.
  • Include migration/behavior changes explicitly.

Internal Release Notes

  • Include technical details, operational impact, and known issues.
  • Capture rollout plan, rollback criteria, and monitoring notes.

Changelog Generation

Use:

python3 scripts/changelog_generator.py --from v1.0.0 --to HEAD

Features:

  • Reads git log range
  • Parses conventional commit prefixes
  • Groups entries by type (feat, fix, chore, etc.)
  • Outputs markdown or plain text

Feature Announcement Framework

  1. Problem context
  2. What changed
  3. Why it matters
  4. Who benefits most
  5. How to get started
  6. Call to action and feedback channel

Communication Quality Checklist

  • [ ] Audience-specific framing is explicit.
  • [ ] Outcomes and trade-offs are clear.
  • [ ] Terminology is consistent across artifacts.
  • [ ] Risks and dependencies are not hidden.
  • [ ] Next actions and owners are specified.
