prd-generator

prd-generator is a skill for Claude Code from ognjengt/founder-skills. It costs 44 tokens per session (2,137 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool that turns a rough product idea into a structured Product Requirements Document (PRD), a plan describing what a product should do. It asks clarifying questions and creates a PDF for AI coding assistants.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to describe a product, answer follow-up questions, and produce an AI-ready requirements document.
Why use it?
It helps turn incomplete ideas into clearer requirements before coding begins. This reduces missing details and misunderstandings.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: $ARGUMENTS substitution. Also seen: names the AskUserQuestion tool.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is mkdir -p ./prd_outputs/[Project Name]/.

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-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 10d ago.

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.

PRD Generator

Purpose

Transform a rough product idea into a comprehensive, AI-ready Product Requirements Document (PDF) through targeted questions and structured output.


Execution Logic

Check $ARGUMENTS first to determine execution mode:

If $ARGUMENTS is empty or not provided:

Respond with: "prd-generator loaded, describe your product idea"

Then wait for the user to provide their product concept in the next message.

If $ARGUMENTS contains content:

Proceed immediately to Task Execution (skip the "loaded" message).


Task Execution

1. MANDATORY: Read Reference Files FIRST

BLOCKING REQUIREMENT — DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP

Before doing ANYTHING else, use the Read tool to read:

  • ./references/prd_template.md

This template defines the exact structure your PRD must follow. DO NOT PROCEED to Step 2 until you have read this file.

2. Skip Business Context

This skill intentionally DOES NOT read FOUNDER_CONTEXT.md. PRDs are standalone documents that should contain all necessary context within them.

3. Analyze Initial Input

From the user's initial description, extract what's available:

  • Product name or working title
  • Core problem being solved
  • Target users/audience
  • Key features mentioned
  • Technical preferences (if any)
  • Constraints or requirements (if any)

4. Ask Clarifying Questions

Use AskUserQuestion tool to gather missing information. Ask up to 7 questions maximum, but fewer is better — stop as soon as you have enough to build a comprehensive PRD.

Question Bank (priority order):

# Question Why it matters Skip if...
1 Who is the primary user? What's their role and technical level? Shapes all UX decisions and feature complexity User persona is clearly described
2 What's the core problem this solves? What happens if users don't have this? Defines the value proposition and success metrics Problem statement is explicit
3 What are the 3-5 must-have features for launch (P0)? Prevents scope creep, focuses MVP Features are already listed with clear priority
4 What technology preferences or constraints exist? (Language, framework, hosting) Determines technical architecture section Tech stack is specified
5 Are there any integrations required? (Auth providers, APIs, third-party services) Identifies dependencies and integration complexity No external services mentioned or user says standalone
6 What does success look like? Any specific metrics to track? Defines goals and success metrics section Metrics or goals are already stated
7 Any design preferences or existing brand guidelines to follow? Shapes UI/UX requirements section Design is flexible or already described

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.
