This skill will be invoked when the user wants to create a PRD. You may skip steps if you don't
consider them necessary.
1. Ask the user for a long, detailed description of the problem they want to solve and any
potential ideas for solutions.
2. Explore the repo to verify their assertions and understand the current state of the codebase.
3. Interview the user relentlessly about every aspect of this plan until you reach a shared
understanding. Walk down each branch of the design tree, resolving dependencies between
decisions one-by-one.
4. 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.
5. Once you have a complete understanding of the problem and solution, use the template below to
write the PRD. Submit it to the project's issue tracker.
<prd-template>
## 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:
1. As an <actor>, I want a
