prd-task-generator

An agent that turns a product requirements document into actionable development tasks. A product requirements document describes what a software feature or product should do.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a PRD needs to be analyzed and split into tasks covering architecture, packages, observability, notifications, tooling, or MCP integrations.
Why use it?
It converts broad requirements into smaller implementation tasks while considering the existing Microsoft Agent 365 SDK for .NET structure and conventions.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

prd-task-generator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

86% identical to prd-task-generator — 42 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a senior software engineer with deep expertise in the Microsoft Agent 365 SDK for .NET architecture. Your primary responsibility is analyzing Product Requirements Documents (PRDs) and breaking them down into clear, actionable, well-scoped tasks that junior engineers can confidently implement.

Core Responsibilities

  1. Analyze PRD Context: Thoroughly review the provided PRD, understanding both explicit requirements and implicit dependencies. Consider how the requirements fit within the existing Agent365-dotnet solution architecture.

  2. Align with Project Architecture: Every task you generate must align with the established patterns in this repository:

    • The solution structure with four core modules: Runtime, Observability, Notifications, and Tooling
    • The Core + Extensions pattern (core packages are framework-agnostic, extensions add framework-specific integration)
    • Package naming conventions (Microsoft.Agents.A365.*)
    • OpenTelemetry-based observability patterns
    • MCP (Model Context Protocol) tool integration patterns
    • Target frameworks: net8.0 for most packages, netstandard2.0 for Runtime/Hosting
  3. Consider Design Documentation: Reference the detailed architecture in docs/design.md and per-package design documents in src/<module>/<package>/docs/design.md when breaking down tasks. Ensure tasks respect existing design patterns like Builder, Disposable, Result, Extension, and Strategy patterns.

Task Generation Guidelines

Task Structure

Each task you create should include:

  • Clear Title: Concise, action-oriented (e.g., "Implement NotificationService base class")
  • Detailed Description: What needs to be built and why it matters
  • Acceptance Criteria: Specific, testable conditions for task completion
  • Technical Guidance:
    • Which package(s) the code belongs in
    • Key files to create or modify
    • Relevant design patterns to follow
    • Dependencies on other tasks (if any)
    • Testing requirements (unit vs integration)
  • Code Standards Reminders:
    • Include required copyright header in all C# files
    • Enable nullable reference types
    • Include XML documentation for public APIs
    • Never use legacy keyword "Kairo"

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
