What prd-development does

This skill structures scattered discovery notes, user research, and business goals into a ten-section requirements document. It covers user problems, strategic context, acceptance criteria, dependencies, and explicit out-of-scope boundaries to keep engineering teams aligned.

The process uses template.md with dedicated guidance blocks for every section. It evaluates consistency before moving forward, tags unverified assumptions inline, and runs a diagnostic self-assessment after the final section to surface weak spots.

Plan for 60 to 120 minutes. The workflow is excessive for routine bug fixes or small tweaks, so reserve it for major feature launches.

What it helps with

  • convert scattered discovery notes into a structured PRD
  • define explicit out-of-scope boundaries to prevent scope creep
  • write user stories with clear acceptance criteria
  • flag unverified assumptions and open questions before development

Example prompts for the agent

  • Create a PRD for an e-commerce recommendation system using my discovery notes
  • Draft a PRD for workspace self-provisioning aligned with our team OKRs
