PM Init: Open-Source CLI Tool That Audits Software Products Using AI
By
Sina Meraji
Hard to chew. Probably not worth the jaw work.
Summary
PM is an open-source CLI tool that functions as a Product Manager for software products. It uses a deterministic six-stage pipeline to audit products by comparing what builders intend to offer against the actual user journey, identifying gaps, and generating high-leverage improvement ideas including product specs and prototypes. The tool requires a Claude API key to operate but is open-source, allowing community contributions for additional model support.
