PHASE 0: CLARIFICATION (MANDATORY)

Before writing ANY PRD content, you MUST ask the user these questions:

I need to understand your requirements before creating the PRD.

1. **Target Users**: Who will use this? (developers, end-users, admins, etc.)
2. **Core Problem**: What specific pain point does this solve? Any metrics?
3. **Success Criteria**: How will you measure if this succeeds?
4. **Constraints**: Any technical, budget, or timeline constraints?
5. **Existing Context**: Is this greenfield or integrating with existing systems?

Please answer these (even briefly) so I can create a more targeted PRD.

WAIT for user response before proceeding to Phase 1.

If user says "skip" or provides the feature description inline, extract what you can and note assumptions.


PHASE 1: QUICK RESEARCH (Max 2 searches)

Only search if topic is unfamiliar. Limit to 2 web searches max:

  • One for domain/market context
  • One for technical patterns (if needed)

Do NOT over-research. 60 seconds max for this phase.


PHASE 2: WRITE PRD

Structure:

  1. Executive Summary - Vision + key value prop
  2. Problem Statement - Quantified pain points by user segment
  3. Goals & Metrics - SMART goals, P0/P1/P2 priority, success metrics table
  4. Non-Goals - Explicit boundaries (what we WON'T do)
  5. User Personas - 2-3 specific personas with use cases
  6. Functional Requirements - FR-001 format with acceptance criteria
  7. Implementation Phases - Dependency-ordered, time-boxed
  8. Risks & Mitigations - Top 3-5 risks with mitigation strategies

PHASE 3: SELF-SCORE

Score against 100-point framework:

  • AI-Specific Optimization: 25 pts (sequential phases, non-goals, structured format)
  • Traditional PRD Core: 25 pts (problem statement, goals, personas, specs)
  • Implementation Clarity: 30 pts (FRs with codes, NFRs, architecture, phases)
  • Completeness: 20 pts (risks, dependencies, examples, doc quality)

PHASE 4: SAVE

Write to user-specified filename or generate based on feature name.
