Decompose a north-star metric into a driver tree — the inputs and sub-inputs that actually move it — so a team knows which levers to pull. Use when asked to build a metric tree, break down a north-star metric, map metric drivers, or find the inputs behind an output metric. Produces a hierarchical tree from the top metric down to actionable input metrics, with the relationships, the highest-leverage levers, and what to instrument.

# Metric Tree Builder Skill

A north-star metric you can't decompose is a number you can't move. This skill breaks it into the multiplicative/additive drivers beneath it, down to metrics a team can actually act on — and points at the highest-leverage levers.

## Working from a brief

Given a top metric and a rough business model, **build the full tree anyway**, inferring the standard driver structure for that model and marking assumptions. Never stop at one level; push down to input metrics someone owns.

## Required Inputs

Ask for (if not already provided):
- **The north-star / top metric** (e.g. weekly active revenue, MRR, GMV, activated users)
- **Business model** (subscription, marketplace, ads, transactional, freemium)
- **Where the team can act** (which teams own which surfaces)
