SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps product teams turn ambiguous ideas, scattered context, or raw stakeholder requests into a structured PMContext that can drive downstream delivery artifacts. It reduces the manual effort of discovery, clarification, and documentation by orchestrating collection, refinement, audit, and optional auto-generation of PRD, stories, and prototypes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end discovery orchestration: Runs a full collect → refine → audit workflow from a single requirement prompt.
  • Dual operating modes: Supports interactive clarification for normal PM workflows and a zero-confirmation auto mode for fast autonomous execution.
  • Structured downstream handoff: Produces PMContext as the source of truth and can continue automatically into PRD, user stories, premortem risk analysis, and prototype generation.
  • Evidence-aware reasoning: Distinguishes facts, assumptions, unresolved gaps, and conflicts, with confidence distribution and audit summaries.
  • Use cases: Ideal when starting a new feature, restructuring a product area, reviewing stakeholder requests, or converting rough product ideas into executable documentation.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to run pm-need on your feature idea, and add the auto flag if you want it to continue from discovery through PRD, stories, and prototype generation without pausing.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn vague product ideas into a structured PRD and user stories?

To turn vague product ideas into a structured PRD, you need a workflow that refines stakeholder requests into a structured PMContext, orchestrating collection and audit to generate downstream deliverables. This process handles evidence-aware reasoning to distinguish facts from assumptions.

What is the best way to automate stakeholder intake for new feature requests?

Automating stakeholder intake involves running an end-to-end discovery orchestration that collects raw requests and refines them into a structured PMContext. This process applies confidence labeling and conflict handling to distinguish facts, assumptions, and unresolved gaps during requirement analysis.

Can I generate product documentation autonomously without pausing for clarifications?

Yes, you can generate product documentation autonomously by using a zero-confirmation auto mode for fast execution. This mode runs the entire workflow from requirement discovery through PRD, user stories, premortem risk analysis, and prototype generation without pausing for manual input.

Does product discovery workflow support interactive clarification for normal PM processes?

Yes, product discovery workflows support dual operating modes, including an interactive clarification mode for normal PM processes. This allows you to manually guide the collection and refinement of stakeholder requests into a structured PMContext before generating downstream deliverables.

How do I handle conflicting assumptions during requirements analysis?

Handling conflicting assumptions during requirements analysis requires evidence-aware reasoning that applies confidence distribution and audit summaries to the collected context. This mechanism identifies conflicts, separates facts from unresolved gaps, and ensures the structured PMContext remains accurate.

What downstream deliverables can I generate from a structured PMContext?

From a structured PMContext, you can generate downstream deliverables including PRDs, user stories, premortem risk analysis, and prototype plans. This requires chaining the refined context through automated generation workflows to produce executable documentation for the product team.
