Engineering skills no longer hard-code GitHub or specific label strings. A new setup skill scaffolds an `## Agent skills` block in AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md plus `docs/agents/` so each repo can declare its own backlog backend, triage label vocabulary, and domain doc layout. Skills that need the mapping (to-issues, to-prd, triage) point at the setup skill; skills that only soften with it (diagnose, tdd, improve-codebase-architecture, zoom-out) stay vague. ADR-0001 records the split. Closes #88, #89. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

| to-prd | Turn the current conversation context into a PRD and publish it to the project backlog. Use when user wants to create a PRD from the current context. |
This skill takes the current conversation context and codebase understanding and produces a PRD. Do NOT interview the user — just synthesize what you already know.
The backlog backend and triage label vocabulary should have been provided to you — run /setup-matt-pocock-skills if not.
Process
-
Explore the repo to understand the current state of the codebase, if you haven't already. Use the project's domain glossary vocabulary throughout the PRD, and respect any ADRs in the area you're touching.
-
Sketch out the major modules you will need to build or modify to complete the implementation. Actively look for opportunities to extract deep modules that can be tested in isolation.
A deep module (as opposed to a shallow module) is one which encapsulates a lot of functionality in a simple, testable interface which rarely changes.
Check with the user that these modules match their expectations. Check with the user which modules they want tests written for.
- Write the PRD using the template below, then publish it to the project backlog. Apply the
needs-triagetriage label so it enters the normal triage flow.
Problem Statement
The problem that the user is facing, from the user's perspective.
Solution
The solution to the problem, from the user's perspective.
User Stories
A LONG, numbered list of user stories. Each user story should be in the format of:
- As an , I want a , so that
This list of user stories should be extremely extensive and cover all aspects of the feature.
Implementation Decisions
A list of implementation decisions that were made. This can include:
- The modules that will be built/modified
- The interfaces of those modules that will be modified
- Technical clarifications from the developer
- Architectural decisions
- Schema changes
- API contracts
- Specific interactions
Do NOT include specific file paths or code snippets. They may end up being outdated very quickly.
Testing Decisions
A list of testing decisions that were made. Include:
- A description of what makes a good test (only test external behavior, not implementation details)
- Which modules will be tested
- Prior art for the tests (i.e. similar types of tests in the codebase)
Out of Scope
A description of the things that are out of scope for this PRD.
Further Notes
Any further notes about the feature.
