What it does

Once installed, the agent writes a short product requirements document, the kind a product manager circulates so engineers, designers and leadership agree on what to build first and why. It follows an 8-section template covering the summary, background, goals, target user groups, a structured value proposition, the solution, and the release plan. It asks you for missing key facts before writing, researches the market when useful, and marks anything it could not confirm as an assumption rather than presenting it as fact.

Great for

  • Product managers writing a first PRD or feature spec
  • Founders or team leads who need to align a small team on a new feature
  • Anyone reviewing an existing PRD to find gaps and cuts

Skip it if

  • Final legal, financial or compliance requirements, because the skill gives product-planning guidance and does not check facts against authoritative sources
  • Teams that already use a different required PRD format, since the output follows this template

Try asking

  • “Write a lean PRD for a new onboarding flow for our note-taking app”
  • “Review this existing feature spec and tell me what is missing or can be cut”
  • “Draft a product requirements document for a subscription reminder feature”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Give the agent your evidence of the problem, your target users and how you will measure success before asking for a PRD, since it will ask for these first.
  • Ask for the detailed version only when the lean one is not enough; the default is about one to two pages.
  • Check the assumptions and open questions section, and validate those points with real users before building.
