SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Collaborative requirements discovery can stall projects and lead to vague scope. This skill guides AI through a structured workflow: creating a task directory, seeding a PRD, asking high-value questions one at a time, researching technical choices, and converging on an MVP scope.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Creates a task directory and seeds an initial PRD to frame the task
  • Guides a one-question-at-a-time Q&A loop to progressively refine requirements
  • Performs research-first analysis to compare technical options and decisions
  • Converges on a concrete MVP scope and handoff plan for implementation

Quick Start

Create a brainstorm task and seed a PRD to begin structured requirements discovery.

FAQPage Schema
How do I structure requirements discovery before implementation?

Structured requirements discovery involves creating a task directory, seeding a PRD, and running an iterative Q&A workflow to progressively refine scope and converge on an MVP before implementation.

What is the best way to define MVP scope for a complex feature?

Defining MVP scope works best when you guide a one-question-at-a-time Q&A loop to refine requirements, perform research-first analysis on technical choices, and document a concrete handoff plan.

How do I write a PRD when requirements are unclear?

Writing a PRD with unclear requirements benefits from seeding an initial draft to frame the task, then progressively refining it through high-value questions asked one at a time.

Can I use structured brainstorming to evaluate multiple viable approaches?

Structured brainstorming supports evaluating multiple viable approaches by performing research-first analysis to compare technical options and decisions before converging on implementation.

When should I use structured requirements discovery over direct implementation?

Structured requirements discovery applies when requirements are unclear, there are multiple viable approaches, or the user describes a new feature or complex task needing a documented handoff plan.

Does requirements discovery work for AI workflow task management?

Requirements discovery integrates with AI workflow task management by creating a task directory in Step 0, seeding a PRD, and converging on an MVP scope to frame complex tasks.
