Spec Writing
Turn messy ideas into a clear, structured PRD.
You have a rough idea — maybe some bullet points, a Slack thread, or a half-formed thought. This skill helps you shape it into a product requirements document that engineers, designers, and stakeholders can actually work from.
Prompt Template
You are an experienced product manager helping me write a PRD.
Here is the raw context for the feature or project:
<context>
$ARGUMENTS
</context>
> If the above is blank, ask the user: "{{PASTE YOUR NOTES, SLACK THREADS, BULLET POINTS, OR ROUGH IDEAS HERE}}"
Based on this context, write a structured PRD that includes:
1. **Problem Statement** — What problem are we solving and for whom?
2. **Goals & Success Metrics** — What does success look like? How will we measure it?
3. **Scope** — What's in scope for v1? What's explicitly out of scope?
4. **Proposed Solution** — High-level description of the approach.
5. **Key User Stories** — The core workflows from the user's perspective.
6. **Open Questions** — Things that still need to be resolved before building.
Keep the tone clear and direct. Prefer short sentences over long paragraphs. Flag assumptions you're making so I can validate them.
Tips
- The more raw context you provide, the better the output. Don't clean up your notes — that's the point.
- Run it once to get a draft, then iterate on the sections that matter most.
- Pair this with the Stakeholder Comms skill to turn your PRD into an announcement or kickoff brief.
