SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Quickly translate a codebase into a formal Product Requirements Document (PRD) that can be turned into Jira epics, stories, and tasks, enabling clear visibility of features, gaps, and technical debt.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Discover and document all features, behaviors, and constraints present in the codebase.
  • Identify missing functionality, bugs, and technical debt to drive backlog items.
  • Generate an actionable PRD (prd_doc.md) mapped to Jira work items (epics, stories, tasks) with traceability from code to requirements.

Quick Start

Run this skill on the repository root to generate a Jira-ready PRD from the current codebase.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a PRD from an existing codebase?

To generate a PRD from an existing codebase, you run the skill on your repository root to reverse-engineer project structure, identify missing functionality, and output a Jira-ready prd_doc.md mapped to epics and stories.

Can I automatically identify technical debt and missing features for Jira backlog creation?

Yes, you can automatically identify technical debt and missing features for Jira backlog creation by auditing the local repository data through a five-phase workflow to validate gaps and generate actionable work items.

How does reverse-engineering code into product requirements work?

Reverse-engineering code into product requirements works by analyzing the project structure and local documentation to discover existing features, behaviors, and constraints, then mapping them directly to Jira epics, stories, and tasks with traceability.

What is the best way to turn repository documentation into Jira epics and stories?

The best way to turn repository documentation into Jira epics and stories is to execute a five-phase workflow that discovers, analyzes, audits, validates, and generates a formal prd_doc.md from your local repository data.

Do I need external dependencies to map code to product requirements documentation?

No, you do not need external dependencies to map code to product requirements documentation, as the skill relies solely on local repository data and its documentation to perform the code analysis and feature identification.
