plan-prd

What problem does it solve?

Creating comprehensive and consistent Product Requirement Documents (PRDs) is a complex and time-consuming task. This Skill streamlines the PRD creation process, ensuring structured planning, enforcing a "land then expand" philosophy, and automatically leveraging existing project context to maintain consistency across features.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Structured PRD Generation: Guides users to create Core, Expansion, or Task-based PRDs, ensuring a clear, focused approach to feature planning.
• Context-Aware Planning: Automatically loads context from existing core PRDs and project conventions (CLAUDE.md) to ensure new expansions are consistent with established patterns.
• "Land Then Expand" Philosophy: Encourages starting with minimal core features (2-4 substories) and building complexity through focused expansions, preventing scope creep and improving clarity.
• Use Case: A product manager wants to plan a new "User Profile" feature. They activate plan-prd, and the AI guides them through defining the minimal core, then helps them plan subsequent expansions (e.g., "Profile Picture Upload," "Social Media Links") by automatically referencing the patterns established in the core PRD.
