📋 sections

i explore how product teams and organizations can replace rigid frameworks with lighter, more adaptive ways of working. my path — software development, product management, hr leadership, self-management consulting, and education — gave me a front-row seat to the frictions that drain energy and multiply unnecessary complexity. today i support people at every level, from c-level to product and people teams, helping them design their own ways of working rather than selling ready-made models.

i help people and groups navigate complex contexts — in their relationship with themselves, in organizational settings, and in digital product creation.

my work moves across four fronts:

created the triple track agile approach. wrote a e-book to building products with short learning cycles and strategy and innovation with jobs to be done, in portuguese. at timeproduto.com.br i map product workflow stages, tools for each, and publish articles on product careers, design, dev, and ai impact — all in portuguese. the cali-product-workflow skills come from years inside real teams — consulting, leading, and experimenting across different organizations. they're not abstract theory. → github.com/renatocaliari · linkedin

🤖 30+ open skills for product discovery, coding, qualitative research, and workflow automation. an agent ecosystem. → github.com/renatocaliari/agent-sync-public

🔄 culture & organizational design — structural experiments, alternatives to traditional corporate rituals (performance reviews, 1:1s, 360s), decentralized decision-making through a complex systems lens. supporting c-level to team leads, teams, and individuals. → linkedin

🌀 liberating structures, group dynamics, and original facilitation processes. training and certification in narrative therapy (in progress). i also build ai tools that support narrative practices (practice library, landscape compass, therapist training simulator currently building tool for simulated conversation system with ai supervision for therapist training. → renatocaliari.com · linkedin

i create specialized ai agent skills for product discovery, qualitative research, and coding workflows. these are prompt-based tools that help agents execute specific tasks with precision.

cali-product-workflow coordinates 25 sub-skills (listed below). the design draws on 2025–2026 research — parallel orchestration (CAID), cross-session learning (Cat), visual review gates (Plannotator), AI-aware mutation testing. i also document 11 known limitations of what AI still gets wrong, even with this structure. it's designed to amplify human judgment, not replace it.

pi.dev + custom skills

I set the stage upstream — questions, critiques, planning convos, detailed scopes. Then the AI runs inside the fences. I still sneak in when something feels off. The results surprise me more often than not.

~ no javascript frameworks, no runtime deps, no huge node_modules — just type-safe go, server-side reactivity via SSE, and a single binary you can deploy anywhere.

i write at 🛸 espaço calionauta — reflections on philosophy, habits, narrative, culture, and life.
