What does the write-a-prd skill do?

It guides you through a structured process to create a Product Requirements Document (PRD), covering problem statements, solutions, and user stories through interviews and code analysis.

Does it analyze my existing code?

Yes, the skill explores your codebase to ensure the generated PRD aligns with your current architecture, tech stack, and relevant modules.

What is the difference between a PRD and an implementation plan?

The PRD captures what to build and why; detailed implementation planning (like specific modules and phases) is handled by the separate prd-to-plan skill.

Where are the PRDs saved?

It can create work items in your project's management system or save a markdown file directly to your local ./plans/ directory.

Can I customize the PRD output?

The skill uses a standardized template but intelligently adapts sections like API contracts or schemas based on your specific project type.

Generates comprehensive Product Requirements Documents by conducting user interviews and analyzing existing codebases.

The write-a-prd skill streamlines the product planning phase by guiding users through a structured requirements-gathering process. It combines deep codebase exploration with active interviewing to capture the 'what' and 'why' of a feature before implementation begins. By generating detailed PRDs that include user stories, implementation decisions, and testing strategies, it ensures a shared understanding between developers and stakeholders while maintaining strict alignment with the existing technical architecture.
