SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Planning a new product is hard because it’s easy to list obvious features while missing the non-obvious domains, dependencies, and edge cases that make a backlog usable.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Dependency-ordered greenfield backlog: Generates an exhaustive set of stack-agnostic feature specs numbered in a build-ready sequence.
  • Phase-by-phase product shaping: Forces clarification, then broad brainstorming, then dependency ordering, with explicit user approvals at each checkpoint.
  • Spec-ready depth for implementation: Produces spec files that include user stories, acceptance criteria, edge cases, test scenarios, and open questions for every feature.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to generate specs for your greenfield newsletter manager idea and include your intended scale and monetization.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a dependency-ordered feature backlog for a new product idea?

To create a dependency-ordered feature backlog, you must clarify scope, brainstorm across feature domains, and order features by dependencies to produce stack-agnostic specs with acceptance criteria and a sequential build-order roadmap.

What is greenfield planning and when do I need it for product roadmap creation?

Greenfield planning is the process of shaping a new product concept from scratch into a sequential build-order roadmap. You need it when you have a product idea but no existing codebase and require an exhaustive, dependency-ordered feature backlog.

How do I write feature specs that include user stories and edge cases?

Writing feature specs requires generating template-compliant files in a specs directory that detail user stories, acceptance criteria, edge cases, test scenarios, and open questions for every feature in your dependency-ordered backlog.

Can I generate a product roadmap without an existing codebase?

Yes, you can generate a product roadmap without an existing codebase by applying greenfield planning. This process forces phase-by-phase product shaping with explicit approvals to produce a breadth, ordering, and depth deliverable.

What's the best way to structure requirements discovery for a feature backlog?

The best way to structure requirements discovery is through phase-by-phase product shaping. This forces initial scope clarification, broad brainstorming across feature domains, and dependency ordering before writing numbered specs.

Are the generated feature specs tied to a specific tech stack?

No, the generated feature specs are stack-agnostic. They focus on requirements discovery, acceptance criteria, and dependency ordering rather than prescribing specific technical frameworks or platforms.
