Draft and validate formal Product Requirements Documents (PRDs). USE THIS SKILL when user mentions: prd, product requirements document, create prd, draft prd, write prd, validate prd, review prd, or critique prd. Supports PRD generation from requirements and critical quality validation.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈1
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 41
Ensure all 10 numbered sections from templates/template-prd.md are populated in exact order:
- Distinctive: line 84
Before ending your turn, verify every item below with concrete evidence (not just a checkmark).
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

PROTOCOL: PRD-WORKSHOP (EXECUTION LEVEL 3)
<state_machine> CURRENT_STEP -> REQUIRED_TOOL -> REQUIRED_OUTPUT -> MANDATORY_HALT Workflow A (Draft) -> read_file(templates/template-prd.md) -> Complete PRD conforming to template-prd.md -> 🛑 HALT TURN (Present PRD) Workflow B (Validate) -> read_file(references/prd-validator.md) -> 5-dimension scored critique (1-10) + blockers -> 🛑 HALT TURN (Present critique) </state_machine>
<execution_invariants>
- WORKFLOW IMMUTABILITY: You may reason freely INSIDE each section, but you are strictly forbidden from skipping sections or inventing a custom PRD or validation format (
workflow structure = immutable | step reasoning = flexible). - TEMPLATE LOCK:
- Workflow A (Draft PRD): You MUST call
read_fileontemplates/template-prd.mdbefore writing the PRD, preserve every section heading and table schema verbatim, and strip all instructional meta-commentary. - Workflow B (Review PRD): You MUST call
read_fileonreferences/prd-validator.mdbefore scoring and follow its exact 5-dimension evaluation rubric.
- Workflow A (Draft PRD): You MUST call
- ESCAPE HATCH: If the situation does not fit the contract, do not silently improvise and do not force-fit: declare the deviation in one line and ask. </execution_invariants>
<output_contract>
- DRAFT PRD SOURCE_TEMPLATE:
templates/template-prd.md(MUST callread_filebefore writing) - REVIEW PRD SOURCE_RUBRIC:
references/prd-validator.md(MUST callread_filebefore scoring) - SCHEMA_INVARIANCE: Preserve all 10 numbered template headings and tables verbatim; strip all instructional meta-commentary.
- ESCAPE_HATCH: Never silently omit or invent PRD sections. If one of the 10 sections genuinely does not apply, preserve the numbered heading and write
"N/A — [1-line rationale]", or halt and ask the user before deviating. </output_contract>
1. Supported Workflows
Workflow A: Draft a PRD
- Generate a structured PRD using
templates/template-prd.md. - Ensure all 10 numbered sections from
templates/template-prd.mdare populated in exact order:## 1. Executive Summary## 2. Problem Statement(2.1 User Pain Points,2.2 Strategic Alignment / Business Impact)## 3. Goals & Success Metrics(3.1 Success Metricstable with Baseline/Target,3.2 Anti-Goals)## 4. User Personas & Stories(4.1 Target Personas,4.2 Key User Stories & Acceptance Criteria)## 5. Functional Requirements(5.1 Core Logic,5.2 Edge Cases & Error Handling)## 6. UX/UI & Design Requirements## 7. Technical Considerations (Engineering Specs)## 8. Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs)## 9. Go-to-Market & Release Strategy## 10. Open Questions & Risks
- Strip all instructional commentary from the output.
Workflow B: Review & Validate a PRD
- Critically audit a submitted PRD using
references/prd-validator.md. - Evaluate against 5 dimensions: Clarity, Completeness, Feasibility, Measurability, and Edge Cases.
- Deliver an actionable critique with a readiness score (1–10), critical blockers, ambiguity quotes, missing edge cases, and clarifying questions.
2. Natural Language Activation
| Intent | Natural Language Examples | Action Executed |
| Draft PRD | "Create a PRD for [feature]", "Write a product requirements document", "Draft PRD from inception" | Generates a new PRD using templates/template-prd.md. |
| Review PRD | "Review this PRD", "Validate my PRD", "Critique the product requirements document" | Audits the PRD against references/prd-validator.md and provides scored feedback. |
3. Review Criteria (Quality Checklist)
| Category | Standard |
| Clarity | Identify vague, non-quantifiable language (e.g., "fast," "easy," "seamless"). |
| Completeness | Ensure all core sections are present and detailed. |
| Feasibility | Flag requirements that are technically contradictory or overly complex. |
| Measurability | Ensure success metrics are quantifiable and tied to the problem statement. |
| Edge Cases | Check that error states, empty states, and offline modes are documented. |
<self_validation_gate> Before ending your turn, verify every item below with concrete evidence (not just a checkmark). If any item cannot be cited with real evidence from this turn, DO NOT produce your final response — fix the violation first:
- Template/Rubric Read Evidence: Exact path passed to
read_file(templates/template-prd.mdfor Workflow A orreferences/prd-validator.mdfor Workflow B):<path> - Schema & Escape-Hatch Evidence: Confirm all 10 numbered PRD sections (
1–10) or all 5 validation rubric dimensions are present verbatim (noting any"N/A — [rationale]"section):<10/10 or 5/5 status></self_validation_gate>
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.

- Partly
- It didn't

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.
