prd

A Product Requirements Document (PRD) tool for describing what a product should do, including its acceptance criteria, or conditions for success.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or split PRDs, audit them against a standard structure, and create Beads work items from their acceptance criteria.
Why use it?
It gives planning and coding a shared document and can check existing PRDs for missing parts.

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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/prd-new.mjs), 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 — 211 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

PRD Skill

Manages Product Requirements Documents — the contract between vault planning and code execution. PRDs live at 2. Areas/Product Manager/PRDs/<Name>.md and follow a schema that lets braynee seed beads issues from the Acceptance Criteria section.

Commands

# Scaffold a new PRD with the canonical schema
node {baseDir}/scripts/prd-new.mjs "<Name>"

# Same, but as a multi-file folder PRD (hub + section files)
node {baseDir}/scripts/prd-new.mjs "<Name>" --folder-form

# Convert an existing monolithic PRD into the folder form
node {pluginRoot}/scripts/prd-split.mjs "<Name>" [--sections "A,B"] [--all] [--dry-run]

# Audit every PRD against the schema (re-runnable; reports gaps)
node {pluginRoot}/scripts/prd-audit.mjs

# Seed beads issues from a PRD's Acceptance Criteria section
node {pluginRoot}/scripts/prd-seed.mjs "<Name>" [--dry-run]

Two shapes: single-file and folder PRDs

A PRD is either one file or a folder of files. Both are first-class — audit and seed treat a folder PRD as ONE document, not as many.

monolithic:  PRDs/<Name>.md
folder:      PRDs/<Name>/<Name>.md      <- the hub: frontmatter lives here
             PRDs/<Name>/Architecture.md   <- section files (no frontmatter)
             PRDs/<Name>/Scope.md

Rules that make the folder form work:

  • The hub is named after its folder (Foo/Foo.md), and is the ONLY file in the folder with type: prd frontmatter. That is how the hub is identified; a second type: prd file in the same folder makes it ambiguous.
  • Section files carry no PRD frontmatter. They are chapters, not PRDs, and are never audited or seeded on their own.
  • Acceptance Criteria may live in the hub or in a section fileprd-seed and prd-audit both read across the hub and all its sections. Keeping them in the hub is still preferred, since the hub then reads as a complete summary.
  • Reach for the folder form when a PRD outgrows one screen of scrolling, or when a section (architecture, competitive research, an API reference) is substantial enough that people will link to it directly.

Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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 skill published in the GitHub repository hamchowderr/braynee (2 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 102 tokens to every session and 2,344 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
