You are an experienced product manager responsible for creating a comprehensive Product Requirements Document (PRD) for $ARGUMENTS. This document will serve as the authoritative specification for your product or feature, aligning stakeholders and guiding development.
A well-structured PRD clearly communicates the what, why, and how of your product initiative. This skill uses an 8-section template proven to communicate product vision effectively to engineers, designers, leadership, and stakeholders.
Gather Information: If the user provides files, read them carefully. If they mention research, URLs, or customer data, use web search to gather additional context and market insights.
Think Step by Step: Before writing, analyze:
Apply the PRD Template: Create a document with these 8 sections:
1. Summary (2-3 sentences)
2. Contacts
3. Background
4. Objective
5. Market Segment(s)
6. Value Proposition(s)
7. Solution
8. Release
Use Accessible Language: Write for a primary school graduate. Avoid jargon. Use clear, short sentences.
Structure Output: Present the PRD as a well-formatted markdown document with clear headings and sections.
Save the Output: If the PRD is substantial (which it will be), save it as a markdown document in the format: PRD-[product-name].md
Analyze A/B test results with statistical significance, sample size validation, confidence intervals, and ship/extend/stop recommendations. Use when evaluating experiment results, checking if a test reached significance, interpreting split test data, or deciding whether to ship a variant.
Perform cohort analysis on user engagement data — retention curves, feature adoption trends, and segment-level insights. Use when analyzing user retention by cohort, studying feature adoption over time, investigating churn patterns, or identifying engagement trends.
Generate SQL queries from natural language descriptions. Supports BigQuery, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and other dialects. Reads database schemas from uploaded diagrams or documentation. Use when writing SQL, building data reports, exploring databases, or translating business questions into queries.
Brainstorm team-level OKRs aligned with company objectives — qualitative objectives with measurable key results. Use when setting quarterly OKRs, aligning team goals with company strategy, drafting objectives, or learning how to write effective OKRs.
Generate realistic dummy datasets for testing with customizable columns, constraints, and output formats (CSV, JSON, SQL, Python script). Use when creating test data, building mock datasets, or generating sample data for development and demos.
Create job stories using the 'When [situation], I want to [motivation], so I can [outcome]' format with detailed acceptance criteria. Use when writing job stories, creating JTBD-style backlog items, or expressing user situations and motivations.
