What

Add a Product Management Memory Bank rules template (RULES/product.management.memory.bank.md) designed for product teams (PM + Product Design + UX Writing).

Version: v1.1.0

Why

Live Memory currently ships rules for software development (standard), book writing, medical tracking, and presales analysis. Product Management teams need a dedicated template that captures the full PM context: product strategy, user knowledge, competitive intelligence, stakeholder dynamics, design systems, and discovery workflows.

What's included

11 mandatory files

  • productVision.md - Mission, vision, positioning, values, OKRs
  • portfolio.md - Living product catalog (features, status, dependencies, debt)
  • marketIntelligence.md - Competitive landscape, trends, regulation, win/loss
  • userKnowledge.md - Cross-persona JTBD, pain points, feedback patterns
  • stakeholders.md - NEW in v1.1.0 Internal stakeholder intelligence, communication matrix, decision styles, organizational dynamics
  • designSystem.md - UX principles, patterns, components, accessibility
  • communicationGuide.md - Renamed from uxWritingGuide.md in v1.1.0 Product voice + PM communication standards (4 registers: internal, technical, executive, customer)
  • engineeringContext.md - Architecture, tech constraints, capacity, release cadence
  • discoveryPlaybook.md - Discovery pipeline, frameworks, Product Trio, go/no-go criteria, strategic frameworks library
  • activeContext.md - Current focus, session entry point
  • roadmapProgress.md - Roadmap, decision log (ADR format), metrics

Dynamic files

  • persona-[name].md - Created per persona as insights emerge (JTBD, pain points, objections, effective messages)
  • feature-[name].md - Created per feature in active discovery, with enriched template (v1.1.0):
    • Success Metrics (primary + guardrail + kill criteria)
    • Rollout Plan (phased: audience, duration, pass criteria)
    • Risks and Recovery (detection, fallback, kill switch)
    • AI Behavior Contract (optional, for AI/ML features)
    • Extended lifecycle phases (Problem Framing through Impact Review)
  • framework-[name].md - NEW in v1.1.0 Static strategic reference frameworks (JTBD, PLG, 7 Powers, etc.) written via bank_write, read-only for the consolidator

Consolidation rules

  • 14 consolidation rules (up from 12 in v1.0.0)
  • Full note category to bank file mapping
  • Stakeholder intelligence routing
  • Communication standards tracking
  • Framework files protection (never modified by consolidator)

Changes in v1.1.0 (this update)

  • Added stakeholders.md as 11th mandatory file
  • Renamed uxWritingGuide.md to communicationGuide.md with PM communication standards
  • Enriched feature-*.md template (Success Metrics, Rollout Plan, Risks, AI Behavior Contract)
  • Added framework-[name].md as read-only dynamic file type
  • Extended feature lifecycle phases (+ Rollout, Impact Review)
  • Updated consolidation mapping and rules (14 rules)
  • Updated RULES/README.md description

Files changed

  • RULES/product.management.memory.bank.md (new template, v1.1.0)
  • RULES/README.md (updated table with PM template description)

Add a new rules template designed for product teams (PM, Product Design,
UX Writing) working with Live Memory.

The template includes:
- 10 mandatory files: productVision, portfolio, marketIntelligence,
  userKnowledge, designSystem, uxWritingGuide, engineeringContext,
  discoveryPlaybook, activeContext, roadmapProgress
- Dynamic persona files (persona-*.md) created as user insights emerge
- Dynamic feature files (feature-*.md) for active discovery/specification
- Discovery pipeline stages (Intake → GA)
- Reference frameworks: F.O.C.U.S.E.D., OST, Product Trio
- Decision log in ADR format
- Detailed consolidation rules mapping note categories to bank files

Also updates RULES/README.md to list the new template in the catalog.
