Product OS
Product management memory agents and founders share.
Goals, requirements, epics, releases, tickets, and decisions — persisted across Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor sessions so product truth does not live in chat scrollback.
The problem
Your backlog is in Notion, your agents work in the terminal, and nobody shares the same definition of what the product is or what ships next.
Product handbook with confirmed facts and open founder questions
Goals linked to requirements, epics, releases, and tickets
Founder decision queue for scope, pricing, and tradeoffs
Audit trail of agent submits tied to product work — not orphan commits
How RAAV helps
Persistent memory for agents — not another coding agent.
Seed the handbook
Agents run onboard-and-plan to capture brief, goals, and V1 requirements in repo memory.
Plan in the open
Epics and tickets reference requirements; releases attach verification criteria.
Coordinate agents
Lanes and claims map agent work to tickets founders can read in Product OS.
Review & decide
Founders clear the decision queue; exports support handoffs and launch readiness.
Memory vs another PM tool
RAAV is not a replacement for Figma or a whiteboard. It is the durable product layer your coding agents read before they edit — goals, requirements, ticket state, verification, and founder decisions — stored local-first in your repo.
What belongs in product management memory
Brief and positioning. Active goals with metrics. Requirements with status. Epics and releases. Open tickets with owners and verification commands. Decisions the founder has approved or deferred. That is the minimum shared state for agent teams.
The 2026 launch readiness model
Six pillars RAAV tracks in Product OS — weighted like a real release scorecard.
Product handbook
CoreOne founder-readable brief — not a wiki nobody updates.
- Brief lists confirmed facts vs assumptions
- Open founder questions are explicit
- Agents reference the handbook in onboarding rules
In RAAV: `raav product handbook` and Product OS brief view.
Backlog truth
CoreTickets tied to goals, not ad-hoc agent prompts.
- Requirements map to epics and releases
- Critical path tickets have verification steps
- `raav next` pulls from the same backlog agents write
In RAAV: Product OS tickets, epics, and release readiness.
Decision log
CoreMaterial tradeoffs recorded for future sessions.
- Scope cuts and deferrals are founder-approved
- Decision queue has no silent TBDs at launch
- Audit export includes decision timestamps
In RAAV: Founder decision queue and audit trail.
Not ready yet if…
- •Roadmap lives in chat; agents invent their own priorities
- •Founders cannot answer what is in scope for the next release
- •Tickets close without verification or product linkage
- •New PM or agent session rebuilds context from scratch
Ready to launch when…
- •Product handbook, goals, and backlog match what agents are executing
- •Decision queue reflects current scope and known limitations
- •Every active lane maps to a ticket a founder can read
- •You can export product truth for handoff or investor review

Traction means parallel agent work. RAAV coordinates lanes, tasks, and verification so scaling does not turn into merge conflicts and amnesia.

Launch readiness is not a feeling — it is verified product truth, closed blockers, passing checks, and founder sign-off. Here is the 2026 checklist and how RAAV tracks it.
