write-a-prd
This skill will be invoked when the user wants to create a PRD. You may skip steps if you don't consider them necessary.
-
Ask the user for a long, detailed description of the problem they want to solve and any potential ideas for solutions.
-
Explore the repo to verify their assertions and understand the current state of the codebase.
-
Interview the user relentlessly about every aspect of this plan until you reach a shared understanding. Walk down each branch of the design tree, resolving dependencies between decisions one-by-one.
-
Sketch out the major modules you will need to build or modify to complete the implementation. Actively look for opportunities to extract deep modules that can be tested in isolation.
A deep module (as opposed to a shallow module) is one which encapsulates a lot of functionality in a simple, testable interface which rarely changes.
Check with the user that these modules match their expectations. Check with the user which modules they want tests written for.
- Once you have a complete understanding of the problem and solution, use the template below to write the PRD. The PRD should be submitted as a GitHub issue.
