Task & PRD Creator

Overview

Create structured task files and PRDs before implementing features. This ensures proper planning, documentation, and clear scope definition.

CRITICAL RULE: Never implement a feature without first creating the task + PRD files and getting user approval.

When This Activates

  • "I want to add [feature]"
  • "Implement [feature]"
  • "Create a task for [feature]"
  • "Plan this feature"
  • User describes a user story
  • Bug that needs tracking

The Workflow

Step 1: Understand Request

  • Simple task: <1 hour, few files
  • Complex feature: >1 hour, multiple files/systems

Step 2: Gather Requirements

  • Which app/project?
  • Priority? (CRITICAL/High/Medium/Low)
  • Dependencies?

Step 3: Check Existing System

  • Read architecture docs
  • Search for similar implementations

Step 4: Create Files

Task file: [project]/.agent/TASKS/[task-name].md

PRD file: [project]/.agent/PRDS/[task-name].md

Step 5: Get Approval

Present files, explain approach, WAIT for user approval.

Task File Format

## Task: [Feature Name]

**ID:** feature-name-slug
**Label:** [App]: [Feature Name]
**Description:** Brief description
**Type:** Feature | Bug | Enhancement
**Status:** Backlog | To Do | Testing | Done
**Priority:** High | Medium | Low
**Created:** YYYY-MM-DD
**Updated:** YYYY-MM-DD
**PRD:** [Link](../PRDS/feature-name.md)

Critical Rules

  • Create task file
  • Create PRD file
  • Link them together
  • Present to user
  • Get approval
  • Then implement

Red Flags (Stop and Ask)

  • Breaking changes
  • Affects multiple projects
  • Security implications
  • Unclear requirements

Integration

  • mvp-architect - MVP scoping
  • planning-assistant - Content planning
  • agent-folder-init - Initialize .agent/ structure

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take coco-research/task-prd-creator from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
