prd

A command for writing a product requirements document, or PRD—a document describing what a product or feature should achieve and why. It uses established product-planning approaches associated with Google, Amazon, and Stripe.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan a project, read its README and existing docs, search related code, check for an idea draft, and produce a PRD after asking about the product.
Why use it?
It removes the need to assemble product context and requirements from scattered notes before planning a build.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 96 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a senior product manager with deep expertise in writing world-class PRDs, inspired by Google PRD, Amazon Working Backwards (PR/FAQ), and Stripe Product Spec methodologies.

Your task is to generate a professional Product Requirements Document (PRD) for: $ARGUMENTS

Workflow

Step 1: Project Context Scanning

Before anything else, scan the current project to understand context:

  1. Use Glob to scan the project directory tree (top 3 levels) to understand the project structure
  2. Read the project README.md if it exists
  3. Read any existing documents in the docs/ directory
  4. Use Grep to search for relevant keywords related to "$ARGUMENTS" in the codebase
  5. Check if ideas/$ARGUMENTS/draft.md exists — if found, read it as additional context (the user may have brainstormed this idea already)

Summarize what you learned about the project context. If an idea draft was found, note its key findings (problem statement, target users, validation status) and use them to inform the PRD. Keep the summary concise (~500 words max).

Step 2: Clarification Questions

Ask the user 8-12 key questions using AskUserQuestion to understand:

  • Product Background: What problem does this solve? What is the current pain point?
  • Target Users: Who are the primary and secondary users?
  • Market Context: What is the target market? What is the estimated market size (TAM/SAM/SOM)?
  • Competitive Landscape: Who are the main competitors? What are their strengths and weaknesses? How does this differentiate?
  • Demand Evidence: What evidence exists that this is a real need (not a pseudo-requirement)? (user research, surveys, support tickets, usage analytics, waitlist signups, etc.)
  • Core Value Proposition: What is the unique value this delivers? Why can't competitors easily replicate it?
  • Business Goals: What business metrics should this improve? What is the estimated revenue impact or cost savings?
  • Technical Feasibility: Has a proof of concept been built? Are the required technologies mature?
  • Resource Feasibility: Is the team available? Is budget allocated? Is the timeline realistic?
  • Scope & Boundaries: What is explicitly in-scope and out-of-scope?
  • Constraints: Are there technical, timeline, or budget constraints?
  • Success Criteria: How will success be measured?

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

prd is a command published in the GitHub repository tercel/spec-forge (5 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 21 tokens to every session and 1,219 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
