product-design-doc

To convert initial product ideas into a structured product design document, place your raw notes in docs/ideas/initial-requirements.md. The workflow processes these inputs to generate docs/product-design.md, capturing user flows, information architecture, risks, and validation plans.

Documenting user flows and information architecture for early-stage teams requires structuring initial requirements into a comprehensive design doc. Using built-in templates and checklists ensures consistent quality, captures validation plans, and aligns cross-functional stakeholders.

Yes, generating a product design doc requires a specific file structure. You must provide inputs in docs/ideas/initial-requirements.md. The system then applies references from template.md and checklist.md to output the final document to docs/product-design.md.

To use templates and checklists for consistent product design documentation, the workflow automatically references references/template.md and references/checklist.md. This integration enforces quality and coverage while transforming rough ideas into a structured design document.

Yes, you can update an existing product design document without recreating the entire file. The workflow modifies docs/product-design.md by integrating new inputs from initial-requirements.md against the template and checklist references.

Including risk assessment and validation plans in early-stage product design docs informs implementation and aligns stakeholders. Capturing these elements within the structured document ensures cross-functional teams understand potential issues and validation strategies.
