What problem does it solve?
This Skill turns an initial product brief and stakeholder input into clear, testable requirements and an actionable starting backlog, preventing ambiguity and scope drift before development begins.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Guided Requirements Interview: Elicits business, functional, non-functional, technical, and constraint details through structured dialogue.
- Benchmark Research: Investigates similar products and prior art through mandatory web searches, then records source-backed adopt, adapt, or reject decisions.
- Backlog and Project Setup: Produces requirements documentation, reconciles conflicts with the product brief, initializes coarse-grained backlog items, and prepares project guidance in CLAUDE.md.
- Use Case: Start with a brief for a new product, validate its scope against user needs and relevant market examples, and finish with approved requirements and an initial Product Backlog ready for Scrum execution.
Quick Start
Activate the requirement-definition skill in a project whose state is new or requirements_sprint to interview stakeholders, research benchmarks, create the requirements documents, and initialize the backlog.
