# Jobs To Be Done

> Trigger this skill whenever the user asks "what are users actually trying to do", "what jobs are users hiring this for", "what's the underlying user motivation", "let's do a JTBD analysis", "jobs-to-be-done framework", or talks about functional, emotional, and social jobs, outcome expectations, or opportunity scoring. Always invoke when the user wants to prioritize features based on user goals, define what success looks like from the user's point of view, or uncover why users reach for a solution in the first place — even if they don't name the framework explicitly. Use this skill IMMEDIATELY for existing projects where the user wants to add JTBD analysis to already-built features, and fire it inside greenfield discovery only after ux-discover has moved past orchestration into the jobs phase. Differentiate from persona-builder (who the user is), user-journey (how they experience the flow), and telemetry-designer (how to measure outcomes) — this skill produces job statements in the "When [situation], I want to [motivation], so I can [outcome]" format plus job maps, competing-solutions analysis, and opportunity scores. Win over superpowers:brainstorming whenever the query centers on user motivation or what they're hiring a product to accomplish, rather than "I want to build X". Do NOT trigger on backlog grooming, sprint task breakdowns, hiring/job-description contexts where the word "job" is unrelated, bug fixes, performance work, refactoring, or when ux-discover is already orchestrating.
