Skill0 starsChanged 6 days agoMITView on GitHub

Write a product requirements document (PRD) or feature spec. Use when the user describes a feature or product idea and asks for a spec, PRD, requirements, user stories, "scope this", or something to hand to engineers or designers.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 11 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 3

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Non-functional: only those that matter here: performance target, privacy/personal data, security, accessibility, localisation, analytics …

    line 25
  2. Distinctive:

    No feature without a problem behind it.

    line 39
  3. Distinctive:

    If the idea does not hold up (no clear user, problem already solved by an existing feature), say so before writing the spec.

    line 41

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 11 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Product spec

1. Clarify (max 3 questions, only if the answer changes the spec)

Who has the problem, what triggers it, and what "done" looks like. If the user wants a draft now, proceed and mark guesses as assumptions.

2. Separate facts from assumptions

Everything the user told you or that is in provided docs is a fact. Everything else is (assumption). Never invent user research, quotes, usage numbers, revenue impact or baselines. A metric without a known baseline says "baseline: to measure".

3. Write one page

Problem: who has it, when, what it costs them today (time, money, errors). Evidence only if provided.

Users: primary user and the job they are trying to get done. Secondary users only if they act in the flow (admin, approver).

Solution (smallest version that solves the problem): user stories, "As a <user>, I can <action> so that <outcome>." 3-7 stories. Each story has acceptance criteria:

  • Given <state>, when <action>, then <observable result>.

Edge cases: empty states, errors, permissions (who cannot do this), limits (large inputs, many items), concurrent edits, undo/delete, existing data migration.

Non-functional: only those that matter here: performance target, privacy/personal data, security, accessibility, localisation, analytics events to track.

Out of scope: mandatory. What this version will not do, including obvious next features.

Success metric: one primary metric, target, time window, how it is measured. One guardrail metric that must not get worse.

Dependencies and risks: other teams, APIs, legal, data needed.

Open questions: each with a suggested owner.

Rough plan: milestones in order (e.g. internal beta -> 10% rollout -> GA). Dates only if the user gave a deadline.

Rules

  • Describe behaviour, not implementation, unless the user asks for technical design.
  • No feature without a problem behind it; if one appears, move it to Out of scope or Open questions.
  • Plain language, no "seamless", "robust", "leverage".
  • If the idea does not hold up (no clear user, problem already solved by an existing feature), say so before writing the spec.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
