prd-create

A guide for creating or revising research-and-development product requirements documents, or PRDs. It turns screenshots, prototypes, confirmed requirements, and review decisions into a structured document with workflows and field rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to document product screens and workflows, define functional fields and restrictions, and record branches, data writes, error recovery, and technical contracts when needed.
Why use it?
It preserves details developers need, including field types, required states, validation, permissions, visibility, editability, and persistence. Unknown behavior is marked for confirmation instead of being invented.

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-create 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/audit-prd-portability.js, scripts/package-prd.js, scripts/validate-prd-images.js, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 46 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

PRD Create

Keep the standard PRD document structure. Preserve every functional-page field and its restriction: field name, control/type, required state, default value, format, range, validation, linkage, editability, visibility, permission, and persistence rule when applicable. Simplify only redundant workflow prose; do not mistake product fields for PRD template fields.

Default PRD Format

  1. Start from assets/prd-template.md; retain its standard PRD sections.
  2. In each Solution module, use the screenshot-first form in assets/module-workflow-template.md.
  3. Put a screenshot under a short screen or scenario heading.
  4. Put 需求描述 immediately below the screenshot.
  5. For a screen with functional fields, put its 页面字段与限制 table directly below the description. Preserve all known field rules in that table.
  6. Add branch flows, interaction constraints, page flows, data writes, error recovery, or technical contracts only when the screenshot, requirement description, and field table cannot express behavior R&D needs to implement.
  7. Mark an unknown as 待确认; never invent behavior or omit a known field restriction.

One screenshot may support several clear requirements. Do not require a screenshot for every click. Use relative image paths and short alt text. When screenshots are design references rather than executable product evidence, describe their behavior as requirements, not observed facts.

Page Field Rules

  • Treat a page field as any input, selector, switch, upload, displayed value, editable item, or generated field that affects behavior or data.
  • Keep its validation and restriction with the field: required/default, length or range, allowed format/value, uniqueness, dependency, editability, visibility, permission, save timing, and error message when known.
  • Write 不适用 only for a restriction that genuinely does not apply. Do not use it to hide an unknown; use 待确认 instead.
  • Do not duplicate field rules in branch/flow sections. Reference the field table when a later workflow section depends on it.

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-create is a skill published in the GitHub repository arch3rPro/ark-space (2 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 68 tokens to every session and 720 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
