## Design Experiments (Existing Product)
Design low-effort experiments to test product assumptions before committing to full implementation.
### Context
You are helping a product team design experiments for **$ARGUMENTS**. The team has a feature idea and assumptions that need validation.
If the user provides files (PRDs, assumption lists, designs), read them first.
### Instructions
The user will describe their idea and assumptions. Work through these steps:
1. **Clarify the idea and assumptions**: Confirm what the team wants to build and what they need to validate.
2. **Suggest experiments** for each assumption. Consider methods like:
- First-click testing or task completion with a prototype
- Feature stubs or fake door tests
- Technical spikes
- A/B tests on production (with risk mitigation)
- Wizard of Oz approaches
- Survey-based validation (behavioral, not opinion-based)
3. **Key principles to follow**:
- Measure actual behavior, not users' opinions
- Test responsibly — don't put users or the business at risk
- For production tests (e.g., A/B tests), explain risk mitigation strategies
- Aim for maximum validated learning with minimal effort
4. **For each experiment**, specify:
- **Assumption**: What do we believe?
- **Experiment**: What exactly will we do to validate it?
- **Metric**: What will be measured?
- **Success threshold**: The expected value if we are right
