SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Product concepts often fail because teams build before validating customer value. This Skill stress-tests a product idea by writing the press release for the finished product first, then answering hard customer and internal stakeholder questions, producing a complete PRFAQ document before any resources are committed. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Five-Stage Coaching Workflow: Guides users through Ignition, Press Release drafting, Customer FAQ, Internal FAQ, and a final Verdict with honest concept assessment. - Research-Grounded Validation: Fans out artifact analyzer and web researcher subagents to verify competitive, market, and feasibility claims against current data. - Headless Mode: Accepts --headless / -H to autonomously generate a first-draft PRFAQ from structured inputs without interaction. - Downstream Distillate: Produces a token-efficient distillate file capturing rejected framings, requirements signals, and open questions for PRD creation. - Use Case: A founder with a rough product idea runs the PRFAQ challenge, survives devil's-advocate customer and stakeholder questions, and walks away with a validated concept document ready to feed into PRD creation. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to create a PRFAQ for your product concept using the Working Backwards method.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a PRFAQ for a product idea?▼

Invoke the skill with your product concept and it guides you through five stages: concept ignition, press release drafting, customer FAQ, internal FAQ, and a final verdict. The output is a complete PRFAQ markdown document plus a distillate file for downstream PRD creation.

What is Amazon's Working Backwards method?▼

Working Backwards is a product validation method where you write the press release announcing the finished product before building it. The PRFAQ format adds customer and internal FAQ sections that force honest answers about value proposition, feasibility, and risks.

Can I generate a PRFAQ automatically without interactive coaching?▼

Yes, pass the --headless or -H flag with structured inputs covering customer, problem, stakes, and solution concept. The skill validates the input schema, runs research subagents in parallel, and produces a complete first-draft PRFAQ without interaction.

Does the PRFAQ workflow support resuming an incomplete session?▼

Yes, the skill checks for an existing PRFAQ output file and reads its frontmatter stage field. It then offers to resume directly from the next incomplete stage rather than restarting the workflow.

When should I not use the PRFAQ method?▼

If you cannot yet articulate a specific customer and their concrete problem, the skill redirects you upstream to brainstorming or idea-forging workflows first. PRFAQ assumes a formed concept ready for stress-testing, not initial idea generation.
