Key Capabilities

PRD Development

  • Standard Template: Executive summary → problem statement → personas → strategic context → solution → metrics → user stories → out of scope
  • Input Flexibility: Works with full discovery notes OR starts from problem definition alone
  • Evidence-Driven: Customer quotes, data, research, competitive landscape
  • OKR Alignment: Ladders features to business goals
  • Scope Discipline: Explicit "what are we NOT building" section

User Story Creation

  • Standard Format: "As a [persona], I want [action] so that [outcome]"
  • Acceptance Criteria: Given-When-Then format for testable requirements
  • Story Mapping: Organize stories into epics, themes, and releases
  • Priority Framework: MoSCoW or RICE scoring integration

Roadmap Planning

  • Timeline Visualization: Now / Next / Later structure
  • Milestone Tracking: Key deliverables with dates and dependencies
  • Resource Planning: Team allocation, skill requirements, capacity
  • Risk Management: Dependencies, blockers, mitigation strategies

Notes

  • Structured, template-driven approach - consistent output format every time
  • Works with or without upfront discovery data; handles "empty-handed" invocations gracefully
  • Complements phuryn/pm-skills (competitive analysis) and refoundai/lenny-skills (PM methodology)
  • PRD template follows industry-standard sections used at major tech companies
  • Useful for CorpusIQ product development workflow and feature specification
