SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

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

What problem does it solve? Product concepts often fail because teams commit resources before validating the customer problem, feasibility, and risks. This Skill stress-tests a product idea using Amazon's Working Backwards method, producing a press release, customer FAQ, internal FAQ, and an honest verdict before any building begins. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Five-stage PRFAQ workflow: Ignition, Press Release drafting, Customer FAQ, Internal FAQ, and a final Verdict with a strength assessment. - Coached drafting with quality bars: Challenges vague claims, bans weasel words, and calibrates questions to the concept type (commercial, internal tool, open-source, nonprofit). - Research-grounded output: Parallel artifact-analyzer and web-researcher subagents gather competitive and market context from project documents and the web. - Headless mode: Run with --headless to generate a complete first-draft PRFAQ from structured inputs without interaction. - Use Case: A founder with a rough app idea runs the PRFAQ challenge and walks away with a press release, answered customer and stakeholder objections, a verdict on concept readiness, and a distillate file ready to feed into PRD creation. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to run the PRFAQ challenge on your product idea, for example: create a PRFAQ for a mobile app that helps freelancers track unpaid invoices.

Frequently Asked Questions about bmad-prfaq

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

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

Run the PRFAQ challenge with your concept and the skill guides you through five stages: capturing the customer and problem, drafting a press release, answering customer and internal FAQs, and receiving a final verdict. The output is saved as a markdown document in your planning artifacts folder.

What is the Amazon Working Backwards method?▼

Working Backwards is Amazon's product validation method where you write the press release for the finished product before building it. It forces customer-first clarity, then uses customer and internal FAQs to test the value proposition, feasibility, and risks.

Can I generate a PRFAQ automatically without interaction?▼

Yes, use the --headless or -H flag with structured inputs covering customer, problem, stakes, and solution concept. The skill validates the input schema, fans out research subagents, and produces a complete first-draft PRFAQ document without interactive coaching.

Does the PRFAQ process work for non-commercial projects?▼

Yes, the skill detects the concept type including internal tools, open-source projects, and community initiatives. It adapts question framing accordingly, replacing unit economics with maintenance burden and customer acquisition with adoption strategy.

What output files does the PRFAQ workflow produce?▼

It produces two markdown files in the planning artifacts folder: the complete PRFAQ document with press release, FAQs, and verdict, plus a distillate file containing dense context bullets designed as token-efficient input for downstream PRD creation.
