Create PRD

Generate a Product Requirements Document through interactive planning.

Process

1. Understand the Feature

Read the user's feature request. If unclear, ask for a brief description.

2. Ask Clarifying Questions

Ask 3-5 clarifying questions to understand scope and requirements.

Format with lettered options:

1. Who is the primary user?
   A) Logged-in users only
   B) All visitors
   C) Admin users

2. Should this persist across sessions?
   A) Yes, save to database
   B) No, session only

User can respond with combinations like "1A, 2B".

3. Generate PRD

After answers, create a detailed PRD with these sections:

# PRD: [Feature Name]

## Introduction
Brief overview of the feature and why it's needed.

## Goals
- Primary goal
- Secondary goals

## User Stories
### [Story Title]
**Description:** As a [user], I want [action] so that [benefit].
**Acceptance Criteria:**
- [ ] Specific, verifiable criterion
- [ ] Another criterion
- [ ] Typecheck passes
- [ ] (UI changes) Verify in browser

## Functional Requirements
1. Requirement one
2. Requirement two

## Non-Goals
What this feature explicitly won't do.

## Design Considerations
UI/UX notes, mockup descriptions.

## Technical Considerations
Architecture notes, dependencies, potential challenges.

## Success Metrics
How to measure if this feature is successful.

## Open Questions
Any unresolved decisions.

4. Save PRD

Save to prds/[feature-name].md (create prds/ directory if needed).

PRD saved to prds/[feature-name].md

Next: Run /create-prd-json to convert to executable format.

Guidelines

• Be explicit and unambiguous
• Write for junior developers and AI agents
• Avoid jargon
• Number requirements for easy reference
• Acceptance criteria must be verifiable, not vague
  • Good: "Button displays 'Save' text"
  • Bad: "Button looks good"
