SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning a raw product idea into a validated PRD and buildable backlog usually means ad-hoc discovery, skipped validation, and documents that cannot be resumed or audited. This Skill enforces a disciplined six-phase sequence where every phase produces versioned markdown artifacts and must pass an explicit human gate before the next begins. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Six-phase orchestration: Sequences nineteen bundled sub-skills across Framing, Discovery, Requirements and Validation, PRD, Delivery Planning, and a closing Strategy Session, carrying each phase's artifacts forward as the next phase's input. - Auditable state and gates: Maintains an INDEX.md state file, a MEASUREMENT.md metrics thread (baseline, target, instrument, read-out date), and recorded gate pass/fail decisions so work can resume and failures stay visible. - Anti-hallucination guardrails: Forbids invented market figures, user quotes, estimates, and approvals; unsourced values are labelled as assumptions or placeholders. - Use Case: A PM with a rough idea for an in-app feature runs the full flow and ends with POSITIONING.md, a validated PROBLEM_STATEMENT.md, a PRD, an epic breakdown with board_import.csv, and a roadmap ready to push to Jira or Linear. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to onboard your new product idea end to end, describing the product, the company, and the primary user in a couple of sentences.

FAQPage Schema
How do I take a product idea to a PRD and backlog?▼

Run the product-onboarding skill, which sequences six gated phases: framing, discovery, requirements and validation, PRD writing, delivery planning, and a closing strategy session. Each phase produces markdown artifacts that feed the next, ending with a PRD, epic breakdown, and roadmap.

What artifacts does a full product discovery process produce?▼

A standard run produces twenty artifacts including POSITIONING.md, JTBD.md, PROBLEM_STATEMENT.md, SPEC.md, PRD.md, EPIC_BREAKDOWN.md, board_import.csv, ROADMAP.md, and a MEASUREMENT.md metrics thread, all tracked in an INDEX.md state file.

Can I run only part of the product onboarding workflow?▼

Yes. An express depth runs all six phases but drops market sizing, PESTEL, opportunity tree, and probe steps for well-understood domains. You can also invoke any single sub-skill directly instead of the full orchestration.

Does the skill push the backlog to Jira or Linear?▼

Yes, it supports nextcloud-deck, jira, and linear as board targets. It shows the exact cards first and requires explicit confirmation before writing anything to the board.

What happens when a phase gate does not pass?▼

The failure is recorded in INDEX.md with the date and stated reason, never overwritten. You choose to fix and re-gate, proceed with the gap logged as a labelled risk, or stop and hand off; silent advancement is not allowed.

When should I not use the full product onboarding flow?▼

Skip it when you only need one artifact, such as a single PRD or story map; invoke that sub-skill directly instead. It is also not a substitute for talking to real users, since discovery must be grounded in actual research.
