SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning a raw product idea into a polished executive product brief requires structured discovery, market research, and synthesis of scattered documents — work that is slow and inconsistent when done ad hoc. This Skill guides you from brain dump to a 1-2 page executive brief, plus an optional token-efficient distillate for downstream PRD creation. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Multi-Mode Discovery: Run in guided, yolo, or autonomous (headless) mode, with subagents analyzing project artifacts and performing web research on competitors and market trends. - Multi-Lens Draft Review: Drafts are reviewed in parallel by skeptic, opportunity, and contextual reviewer lenses before you see them, catching gaps and untested assumptions. - PRD-Ready Distillate: Captures overflow detail (requirements hints, rejected ideas, technical constraints) into a structured detail pack optimized for PRD workflows. - Use Case: You have a rough idea for a task management API plus some brainstorming notes. Invoke the skill, answer a few targeted questions, and receive a complete product brief and detail pack ready to feed into PRD creation. ## Quick Start Ask your assistant to create a product brief for your product idea and share any existing notes or documents you have.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a product brief from a rough idea?▼

Invoke the skill and describe your product idea in a brain dump. It runs guided discovery, analyzes your existing documents, performs web research, asks targeted gap-filling questions, then drafts and reviews a 1-2 page executive brief.

What is the difference between guided, yolo, and autonomous modes?▼

Guided mode uses conversational discovery with soft checkpoints. Yolo mode drafts the complete brief upfront then refines with you. Autonomous (headless) mode ingests all inputs and produces the brief with no interaction, outputting structured JSON.

Can I update an existing product brief instead of creating one?▼

Yes. Provide the path to an existing brief or say update, revise, or edit. The skill reads it fully, asks what changed, and runs discovery and review focused on gaps and changes to produce an updated version.

What is the product brief distillate used for?▼

The distillate is a token-efficient markdown file capturing overflow detail like requirements hints, rejected ideas, technical constraints, and open questions. It is structured specifically as input context for downstream PRD creation workflows.

What happens if subagents are unavailable during the workflow?▼

The skill degrades gracefully: it reads only the most relevant one or two documents inline, runs a few targeted web searches itself, and performs all three review passes sequentially in the main context without blocking the workflow.
