Translate vision into rigorous, unambiguous product logic documents (PRD/User Stories), providing an accurate execution benchmark for R&D and design.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
Distinctive · estimate
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
- Distinctive: line 20
Document as Contract: Do not let R&D write a single line of code until the definition is complete.
- Distinctive: line 22
Falsifiability: If you cannot provide a criterion for "failure," the definition is not clear.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 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.

Product Definition: Rigorous Product Definition Guide
Definition is the "source code" for R&D.
Checklist
- Set Goals and Non-goals (Scope) — Clarify "what to do" and "what not to do" for this feature.
- Write User Stories — As a... I want to... So that...
- Detail Acceptance Criteria (AC) — Every functional point must be testable.
- Organize Core Business Logic — Use state machines, sequence diagrams, or data dictionaries.
- Define Performance and Non-functional Requirements — Response time, concurrency support, and data consistency.
Expert Principles
- Document as Contract: Do not let R&D write a single line of code until the definition is complete.
- Edge Case Coverage: A senior PM should spend 80% of their time handling the 20% of abnormal scenarios outside the Happy Path.
- Falsifiability: If you cannot provide a criterion for "failure," the definition is not clear.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

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

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.
