Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/fradser/dotclaude --skill create-prd
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads create-prd automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

PRD Creation

Follow the phases below to transform product ideas into a complete PRD document. All PRD content is written in Chinese (the target audience is Chinese-speaking teams).

Output Mode

Determine output mode from $ARGUMENTS:

ArgumentModeOutput
--md (default)Local MarkdownSave as .md file to project directory
--larkFeishu Cloud DocCreate via lark-cli using Lark rich-text features

--lark mode accepts optional location arguments (mutually exclusive), supporting token or Feishu URL:

  • --folder-token — Target folder (token or URL)
  • --wiki-node — Target wiki node (token or URL)
  • --wiki-space — Target wiki space root (ID or URL, or my_library)

Pass URL directly to lark-cli — no manual token extraction needed. Defaults to user's personal space root when no location specified.

Phase 0: Import Context

Check for existing design or requirements documents:

  1. Search for docs/, prd/ directories or user-specified files
  2. If found, extract key information (problem statement, target users, core features) as pre-filled content
  3. If nothing found, skip this phase

Phase 1: Determine PRD Type

Ask the user which PRD type they need:

  • Full (recommended): All standard sections, suitable for complex features
  • Brief: Core sections only, suitable for small features or quick iteration
  • One-pager: Single-page summary, suitable for concept validation and executive reporting

Phase 2: Gather Information

Follow the interview questions in references/prd-interview-questions.md, one question at a time. Wait for the answer before continuing.

  • Basic info (7 items): required for all types
  • Full version extras (5 items): full type only
  • AI Agent boundaries: needed when the PRD will be consumed by AI coding agents

If Phase 0 found pre-filled content, show it to the user for confirmation and skip covered questions.

Phase 3: Generate PRD Document

  1. Select template:

    • Full: references/prd-template-full.md
    • Brief: references/prd-template-brief.md
    • One-pager: references/prd-template-onepager.md
  2. Fill content: Use gathered information for each section, following references/prd-best-practices.md writing principles

  3. AI Agent consumability:

    • Write each requirement as a discrete, verifiable item (lists over long paragraphs)
    • Express non-goals as positive constraints
    • Split P0 features into 5-15 minute agent work stages with testable checkpoints
    • Full version includes a three-layer boundary framework: autonomous / needs confirmation / prohibited
  4. Quality requirements:

    • Problem statement backed by specific data or research
    • Goals follow SMART principles
    • Success metrics are quantifiable
    • Avoid vague terms ("approximately", "maybe", "try to")
    • Use active voice and concrete verbs
  5. Format:

    • --md mode: Standard Markdown with clear heading hierarchy
    • --lark mode: Lark-flavored Markdown (see Feishu enhancements section)

Phase 4: Validate and Save

Run validation per references/prd-validation-checklist.md — completeness, SMART goals, content quality, BDD acceptance criteria.

--md Mode

Save file after validation:

  • Filename: PRD-[ProductName]-[YYYYMMDD].md
  • Prefer docs/ or prd/ directory, otherwise current working directory
  • Report path and file summary

--lark Mode

Create Feishu document after validation:

  1. CRITICAL — Confirm standalone lark plugin (lark@frad-dotclaude) is installed; follow its lark-shared skill for authentication
  2. Follow the lark plugin's lark-doc skill for document creation guidance
  3. Refer to lark-doc-create.md for full docs +create parameters and Lark-flavored Markdown syntax
  4. Convert PRD content to Lark-flavored Markdown (see Feishu enhancements section)
  5. Create document:
    lark-cli docs +create --title "PRD-[ProductName]-[YYYYMMDD]" \
      [--folder-token TOKEN_OR_URL | --wiki-node TOKEN_OR_URL | --wiki-space ID_OR_URL] \
      --markdown "<lark-flavored-markdown>"
    
  6. For longer PRDs, split: docs +create for first half, then docs +update --mode append for remaining sections
  7. If board_tokens are present:
    • Follow the lark plugin's lark-whiteboard skill
    • Fill each whiteboard with actual content (flowcharts, architecture diagrams)
    • All whiteboards must have real content before task is complete
  8. Report the document URL

Phase 5: Next Steps

After saving, suggest follow-up options:

  • Convert PRD into implementation tickets
  • Refine design decisions in open questions
  • Share with team for review and feedback

Feishu Document Enhancements

CRITICAL — In --lark mode, use Lark-flavored Markdown syntax to leverage Feishu's rich-text capabilities.

Whiteboard Rules

Insert whiteboards for: user journeys, system architecture, data flows, milestones, team organization. Skip for pure text, data-heavy content (use tables), or when user requests text-only.

Format Principles

  • Max 4 heading levels
  • Use --- dividers between sections
  • Do NOT write a top-level heading duplicating the title (Feishu auto-generates it)
  • Use callouts sparingly; bold only core terms
  • Use <text color="red"> for key metrics or status
  • Feishu auto-generates table of contents — do not add manually

Quality Principles

  • Data-driven: Support problem statements with specific data and user research
  • SMART goals: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound
  • Concise and clear: Avoid verbosity; descriptions must be clear enough for dev teams to implement directly
  • Collaboration-oriented: PRD is a collaboration tool; tone promotes discussion, not command
  • Dual-audience design: Serve both human teams and AI coding agents
