## Core rule

Don't invent: what you don't know goes to Assumptions and open questions, clearly marked, not into the body as fact.

## Execution Phases

1. **Start from the inputs** — Read any files provided; if the problem, target users or success metric is missing, ask up to three short questions first and write no PRD in that reply.
2. **Research when it helps** — Search the web for market, competitors, regulations or recent changes, cite sources next to claims, and include a finding only if it changes a decision.
3. **Write the 8 sections** — Cover summary, contacts, background, objective, market segments, value propositions, solution and release; segments and value propositions are always included.
4. **Save and list omissions** — Save it as PRD-[product-name].md and add one line in the reply listing what was deliberately left out.

## Permissions (summarised from SKILL.md)

| Capability | Needed | Details |
|---|---|---|
| File writes | Limited | Writes only the Markdown file PRD-[product-name].md. |
| Command execution | Not required | A writing skill; it runs no commands. |
| Network outbound | Required | Searches the web for market, competitor and regulatory context and reads sources the user points to. |
