Planning & Design

These skills help you think through problems before writing code.

  • **write-a-prd** — Create a PRD through an interactive interview, codebase exploration, and module design. Filed as a GitHub issue.

    npx skills@latest add mattpocock/skills/write-a-prd
  • **prd-to-plan** — Turn a PRD into a multi-phase implementation plan using tracer-bullet vertical slices.

    npx skills@latest add mattpocock/skills/prd-to-plan
  • **prd-to-issues** — Break a PRD into independently-grabbable GitHub issues using vertical slices.

    npx skills@latest add mattpocock/skills/prd-to-issues

  • **improve-codebase-architecture** — Explore a codebase for architectural improvement opportunities, focusing on deepening shallow modules and improving testability.

    npx skills@latest add mattpocock/skills/improve-codebase-architecture
  • **migrate-to-shoehorn** — Migrate test files from `as` type assertions to @total-typescript/shoehorn.
