按照SDD方法论创建产品需求文档(PRD)- 第2层工件定义产品特性和用户需求

person作者: jakexiaohubgithub

doc-prd

Purpose

Create Product Requirements Documents (PRD) - Layer 2 artifact in the SDD workflow that defines product features, user needs, measurable success criteria, and KPIs.

Layer: 2

Upstream: BRD (Layer 1)

Downstream Artifacts: EARS (Layer 3), BDD (Layer 4), ADR (Layer 5)

Prerequisites

Upstream Artifact Verification (CRITICAL)

Before creating this document, you MUST:

  1. List existing upstream artifacts:

    ls docs/BRD/ docs/PRD/ 2>/dev/null
    
  2. Reference only existing documents in traceability tags

  3. Use null only when upstream artifact type genuinely doesn't exist

  4. NEVER use placeholders like BRD-XXX or TBD

  5. Do NOT create missing upstream artifacts - skip functionality instead

Before creating a PRD, read:

  1. Shared Standards: .claude/skills/doc-flow/SHARED_CONTENT.md
  2. Upstream BRD: Read the BRD that drives this PRD Note on Sectioned BRDs: If BRD is split into multiple section files (0-18), read ALL files as ONE logical document. See PRD_CREATION_RULES.md Section 22.
  3. Template: ai_dev_flow/PRD/PRD-TEMPLATE.md
  4. Creation Rules: ai_dev_flow/PRD/PRD_CREATION_RULES.md
  5. Validation Rules: ai_dev_flow/PRD/PRD_VALIDATION_RULES.md

When to Use This Skill

Use doc-prd when:

  • Have completed BRD (Layer 1)
  • Need to define product features and user requirements
  • Translating business needs to product specifications
  • Establishing KPIs and success metrics
  • You are at Layer 2 of the SDD workflow

PRD-Specific Guidance

1. Required Sections (21 Total)

PRD documents require exactly 21 numbered sections (1-21). See ai_dev_flow/PRD/PRD-TEMPLATE.md for complete structure.

Section 1. Document Control (MANDATORY - First section):

  • Status, Version, Date Created, Last Updated
  • Author, Reviewer, Approver
  • BRD Reference (@brd: BRD.NN.EE.SS)
  • SYS-Ready Score: >=90% required (format: XX% (Target: >=90%))
  • EARS-Ready Score: >=90% required (format: XX% (Target: >=90%))
  • Template Variant (Standard/Agent-Based/Automation-Focused)
  • Document Revision History table

All 21 Sections (in order):

  1. Document Control: Metadata, versioning, dual scoring (SYS-Ready + EARS-Ready >=90%)
  2. Executive Summary: Business value and timeline overview (2-3 sentences)
  3. Problem Statement: Current state, business impact, opportunity assessment
  4. Target Audience & User Personas: Primary users, secondary users, business stakeholders
  5. Success Metrics (KPIs): Primary KPIs, secondary KPIs, success criteria by phase
  6. Goals & Objectives: Primary business goals, secondary objectives, stretch goals
  7. Scope & Requirements: In scope features, out of scope items, dependencies, assumptions
  8. User Stories & User Roles: Role definitions, story summaries (PRD-level only, no EARS/BDD detail)
  9. Functional Requirements: User journey mapping, capability requirements
  10. Customer-Facing Content & Messaging (MANDATORY): Product positioning, messaging, user-facing content
  11. Acceptance Criteria: Business acceptance, technical acceptance, quality assurance
  12. Constraints & Assumptions: Business/technical/external constraints, key assumptions
  13. Risk Assessment: High-risk items, risk mitigation plan
  14. Success Definition: Go-live criteria, post-launch validation, measurement timeline
  15. Stakeholders & Communication: Core team, stakeholders, communication plan
  16. Implementation Approach: Development phases, testing strategy
  17. Budget & Resources: Development/operational budget, resource requirements
  18. Traceability: Upstream sources, downstream artifacts, traceability tags, validation evidence
  19. References: Internal documentation, external standards, domain references, technology references
  20. EARS Enhancement Appendix: EARS pattern templates and requirement syntax guidance
  21. Quality Assurance & Testing Strategy: QA standards, testing strategy

Critical Notes:

  • All 21 sections are MANDATORY with explicit numbering (## N. Title format)
  • Section 10 (Customer-Facing Content) is blocking - must contain substantive content
  • Section 8 (User Stories) must include layer separation scope note
  • Section 21 (QA & Testing Strategy) moved from BRD as technical QA belongs at product level

2. Dual Scoring Requirements

PRD documents require two quality scores in Document Control:

| Score | Purpose | Threshold | |-------|---------|-----------| | SYS-Ready Score | Readiness for SYS creation | >=90% | | EARS-Ready Score | Readiness for EARS creation | >=90% |

Format: XX% (Target: >=90%)

SYS-Ready Scoring Criteria (100%):

  • Product Requirements Completeness (40%): All 21 sections, measurable KPIs, acceptance criteria, stakeholder analysis
  • Technical Readiness (30%): System boundaries, quality attributes quantified, Architecture Decision Requirements
  • Business Alignment (20%): ROI validated, market analysis, success metrics, risk mitigation
  • Traceability (10%): Upstream BRD references, downstream links

EARS-Ready Scoring Criteria (100%):

  • Business Requirements Clarity (40%): SMART objectives, functional requirements, acceptance criteria
  • Requirements Maturity (35%): System boundaries, stakeholder requirements, problem statement
  • EARS Translation Readiness (20%): User journeys, quality attributes quantified
  • Strategic Alignment (5%): Domain-specific business logic references

3. Template Variant Selection

| Variant | Sections | Use Case | |---------|----------|----------| | Standard | 1-21 (21) | Business features, core platform (DEFAULT) | | Agent-Based | 1-15 (15) | ML/AI agents, intelligent systems | | Automation-Focused | 1-12 (12) | n8n workflows, event processing |

Selection Criteria:

  1. ML/AI agent? -> Agent-Based
  2. n8n workflow/automation? -> Automation-Focused
  3. Otherwise -> Standard (default)

4. User Stories Scope (Section 8)

Layer Separation Principle:

  • PRD (Layer 2): User role definitions, story summaries, product-level acceptance criteria
  • EARS (Layer 3): Detailed behavioral scenarios (WHEN-THE-SHALL-WITHIN format)
  • BDD (Layer 4): Executable test scenarios (Given-When-Then format)

MANDATORY Scope Note (include in Section 8):

This section provides role definitions and story summaries. Detailed behavioral requirements are captured in EARS; executable test specifications are in BDD feature files.

User Story Format: "As a [role], I want [capability] so that [benefit]"

PRD-Level Content (INCLUDE):

  • User role definitions (personas)
  • Story titles and summaries (2-3 sentences max)
  • Product-level acceptance criteria
  • Business value justification

NOT PRD-Level (EXCLUDE):

  • EARS-level specifications -> Layer 3
  • BDD-level test scenarios -> Layer 4
  • Technical implementation details -> Layer 6/7
  • System architecture decisions -> ADR (Layer 5)

5. Customer-Facing Content (Section 10) - MANDATORY

Status: BLOCKING - error if missing or placeholder-only

Required Content Categories (minimum 3):

  1. Product positioning statements
  2. Key messaging themes
  3. Feature descriptions for marketing
  4. User-facing documentation requirements
  5. Help text and tooltips
  6. Error messages (user-visible)
  7. Success confirmations
  8. Onboarding content
  9. Release notes template

6. Architecture Decision Requirements (Section 18)

Purpose: Elaborate BRD Section 7.2 topics with technical content (options, criteria).

Layer Separation:

BRD Section 7.2          ->    PRD Section 18         ->    ADR
(WHAT & WHY)                   (HOW to evaluate)           (Final decision)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Business drivers               Technical options           Selected option
Business constraints           Evaluation criteria         Trade-off analysis

PRD Section 18 Format:

##### BRD.NN.32.SS: [Topic Name]

**Upstream**: BRD-NN section 7.2.X

**Technical Options**:
1. **[Option A]**: [Description]
2. **[Option B]**: [Description]

**Evaluation Criteria**:
- **[Criterion 1]**: [Measurable target]
- **[Criterion 2]**: [Measurable target]

**Product Constraints**:
- [Constraint 1]

**Decision Timeline**: [Milestone reference]

**ADR Requirements**: [What ADR must decide]

CRITICAL: Do NOT reference specific ADR numbers (ADR-01, ADR-033, etc.) - ADRs don't exist yet!

7. EARS Enhancement Appendix (Section 20)

Purpose: Provides structured requirements for EARS transformation.

Required Subsections:

20.1 Timing Profile Matrix: | Operation | p50 | p95 | p99 | Unit | Trigger Event | Notes | |-----------|-----|-----|-----|------|---------------|-------| | [operation] | [value] | [value] | [value] | ms | [event] | [constraints] |

20.2 Boundary Value Matrix: | Threshold | Operator | Value | At Boundary | Above | Below | |-----------|----------|-------|-------------|-------|-------| | [name] | >= or > or <= or < | [value] | [behavior] | [behavior] | [behavior] |

20.3 State Transition Diagram: Mermaid stateDiagram-v2 with error states

20.4 Fallback Path Documentation: | Dependency | Failure Mode | Detection | Fallback Behavior | Timeout | Recovery | |------------|--------------|-----------|-------------------|---------|----------|

20.5 EARS-Ready Checklist: All timing, boundary, state, fallback items verified

Tag Format Convention

| Notation | Format | Artifacts | Purpose | |----------|--------|-----------|---------| | Dash | TYPE-NN | ADR, SPEC, CTR | Technical artifacts - file references | | Dot | TYPE.NN.TT.SS | BRD, PRD, EARS, BDD, SYS, REQ, IMPL, TASKS | Hierarchical - element references |

Key Distinction:

  • @adr: ADR-033 -> Points to document ADR-033_slug.md
  • @brd: BRD.17.01.01 -> Points to element 01.01 inside BRD-017.md

Unified Element ID Format (MANDATORY)

Pattern: PRD.{DOC_NUM}.{ELEM_TYPE}.{SEQ} (4 segments, dot-separated)

| Element Type | Code | Example | |--------------|------|---------| | Functional Requirement | 01 | PRD.02.01.01 | | Quality Attribute | 02 | PRD.02.02.01 | | Constraint | 03 | PRD.02.03.01 | | Assumption | 04 | PRD.02.04.01 | | Dependency | 05 | PRD.02.05.01 | | Acceptance Criteria | 06 | PRD.02.06.01 | | Risk | 07 | PRD.02.07.01 | | Metric | 08 | PRD.02.08.01 | | User Story | 09 | PRD.02.09.01 | | Use Case | 11 | PRD.02.11.01 | | Feature Item | 22 | PRD.02.22.01 | | Stakeholder Need | 24 | PRD.02.24.01 |

REMOVED Patterns (Do NOT use):

  • AC-XXX -> Use PRD.NN.06.SS
  • FR-XXX -> Use PRD.NN.01.SS
  • F-XXX -> Use PRD.NN.09.SS
  • US-XXX -> Use PRD.NN.09.SS

Cumulative Tagging Requirements

Layer 2 (PRD): Must include tags from Layer 1 (BRD)

Tag Count: 1 tag (@brd)

Format:

## 18. Traceability

### Traceability Tags

**Required Tags** (Cumulative Tagging Hierarchy - Layer 2):
```markdown
@brd: BRD.01.01.03, BRD.01.01.10
  • BRD.01.01.03 - Business requirements driving this product
  • BRD.01.01.10 - Success criteria from business case

Upstream Sources:

  • BRD-01 - Parent business requirements

Downstream Artifacts:

  • EARS-NN (to be created) - Formal requirements
  • BDD-NN (to be created) - Test scenarios

## Creation Process

### Step 1: Read Parent BRD

Read and understand the BRD that drives this PRD.

**Sectioned BRD Handling**:
If BRD is split into multiple section files (folder structure `docs/BRD/BRD-NN_{slug}/`):
1. Read ALL section files (BRD-NN.0 through BRD-NN.18)
2. Treat as ONE logical document
3. Extract information holistically (no section-to-section mapping)

### Step 2: Reserve ID Number

Check `docs/PRD/` for next available ID number (e.g., PRD-01, PRD-02).

**ID Numbering Convention**: Start with 2 digits and expand only as needed.
- ✅ Correct: PRD-01, PRD-99, PRD-102
- ❌ Incorrect: PRD-001, PRD-009 (extra leading zero not required)

**ID Matching**: PRD ID does NOT need to match BRD ID (PRD-09 may implement BRD-16).

### Step 3: Create PRD Folder and Files

**Folder structure** (DEFAULT - nested folder per document):
1. Create folder: `docs/PRD/PRD-NN_{slug}/`
2. Create index file: `docs/PRD/PRD-NN_{slug}/PRD-NN.0_index.md`
3. Create section files: `docs/PRD/PRD-NN_{slug}/PRD-NN.S_{section_type}.md`

**Example**:

docs/PRD/PRD-01_user_authentication/ PRD-01.0_index.md PRD-01.1_executive_summary.md PRD-01.2_problem_statement.md ...


**OPTIONAL** (for small documents <25KB): `docs/PRD/PRD-NN_{slug}.md` (monolithic)

### Step 4: Complete Document Control

Fill all required metadata fields:
- Status, Version, Dates, Author/Reviewer/Approver
- BRD Reference with `@brd` tag
- SYS-Ready Score and EARS-Ready Score (both >=90%)
- Template Variant
- Document Revision History table

### Step 5: Complete Core Sections (2-17)

**Section 2-3**: Problem context and business impact
**Section 4-6**: Users, KPIs, goals
**Section 7-9**: Scope, user stories, functional requirements
**Section 10**: Customer-facing content (MANDATORY)
**Section 11-14**: Acceptance criteria, constraints, risks, success
**Section 15-17**: Stakeholders, implementation, budget

### Step 6: Complete Traceability (Section 18)

- Add upstream BRD references
- Document downstream artifact placeholders
- Include Architecture Decision Requirements elaboration
- Add bidirectional reference table if cross-PRD dependencies exist

### Step 7: Complete References (Section 19)

Internal documentation, external standards, domain and technology references.

### Step 8: Complete EARS Enhancement Appendix (Section 20)

- Timing Profile Matrix (p50/p95/p99)
- Boundary Value Matrix (explicit operators)
- State Transition Diagram (with error states)
- Fallback Path Documentation
- EARS-Ready Checklist

### Step 9: Complete QA Strategy (Section 21)

Quality standards and testing strategy (moved from BRD).

### Step 10: Create/Update Traceability Matrix

**MANDATORY**: Create or update `docs/PRD/PRD-00_TRACEABILITY_MATRIX.md`

### Step 11: Update Upstream BRD Traceability (MANDATORY)

**CRITICAL - Often Missed**: When creating a PRD, you MUST update the parent BRD's traceability section.

**Process**:
1. Open the upstream BRD (e.g., `docs/BRD/BRD-01_platform.md`)
2. Locate the `## Traceability` section
3. Add this PRD to `Downstream Artifacts`:
   ```markdown
   - Downstream Artifacts: [PRD-01](../PRD/PRD-01_user_authentication/PRD-01.0_index.md#PRD-01)
  1. Commit BRD update with PRD creation (single commit)

Why This Matters:

  • Enables bidirectional navigation between BRD and PRD
  • Impact analysis: BRD changes show affected PRDs
  • Audit compliance: Regulators require bidirectional traceability

Reference: See .claude/skills/doc-flow/SHARED_CONTENT.md Section 4.3 "Bidirectional Traceability Update Workflow" for complete guidance.

Step 12: Validate PRD

# PRD validation
python ai_dev_flow/scripts/validate_prd.py docs/PRD/PRD-NN_{slug}/

# Link integrity
python ai_dev_flow/scripts/validate_links.py --path docs/PRD/

# Cumulative tagging validation
python ai_dev_flow/scripts/validate_tags_against_docs.py --artifact PRD-NN --expected-layers brd --strict

Common Pitfalls

  1. Missing dual scores: Both SYS-Ready and EARS-Ready scores required
  2. Incorrect section structure: Must be exactly 21 sections (1-21) in order
  3. Missing Section 10 content: Customer-Facing Content is MANDATORY
  4. User Stories scope violation: Section 8 must stay at PRD-level (no EARS/BDD detail)
  5. ADR forward references: Don't write "See ADR-033" (ADRs don't exist yet)
  6. Missing @brd tags: Layer 2 must include Layer 1 tags
  7. ID format errors: Use unified format PRD.NN.TT.SS (not F-XXX, US-XXX, etc.)
  8. Missing EARS Enhancement Appendix: Section 20 required for EARS-Ready score
  9. Missing upstream BRD update: Must add PRD reference to parent BRD's Downstream Artifacts

Template Binding (MANDATORY)

When creating PRD documents, use EXACTLY these metadata values:

tags:
  - prd                 # REQUIRED - Use 'prd' NOT 'product-prd', 'feature-prd'
  - layer-2-artifact    # REQUIRED - Layer identifier

custom_fields:
  document_type: prd    # REQUIRED - Use 'prd' NOT 'product-requirements'
  artifact_type: PRD    # REQUIRED - Uppercase
  layer: 2              # REQUIRED - PRD is Layer 2
  architecture_approaches: [ai-agent-based]  # REQUIRED - Array format

FORBIDDEN Values:

  • Tags: product-prd, feature-prd, product-requirements
  • document_type: product-requirements, product_requirements
  • architecture_approach: value (singular form)

Diagram Standards

All diagrams MUST use Mermaid syntax. Text-based diagrams (ASCII art, box drawings) are prohibited. See: ai_dev_flow/DIAGRAM_STANDARDS.md and mermaid-gen skill.
