Concept to Product Plan

Overview

Transforms an accepted product brief into a detailed, executor-ready product plan. This workflow bridges product decisions and execution by producing specific instructions for the correct builder type.

Args: Accepts --headless / -H for non-interactive execution.

Output: Product plan/spec package and executor handoff bundle.

Inputs

• Product brief (from product-decisions.md or brief file)
• Chosen product family (knowledge, template, software, service)
• Scope and packaging decisions

Outputs

Output	Location
Product plan	.pawbytes/prodig-suites/plans/{product-slug}/plan.md
Executor handoff	.pawbytes/prodig-suites/plans/{product-slug}/handoff.md
Product context update	.pawbytes/prodig-suites/products/{product-slug}/product-context.md

Pipeline

Stage 1: Load Brief

Load ./references/01-load-brief.md

Inputs: Product brief location or product-decisions.md

Progression: Brief is loaded and completeness verified. All required sections present.

Stage 2: Identify Executor

Load ./references/02-identify-executor.md

Inputs: Product family selection, product type

Progression: Executor type determined and validated against product requirements.

Stage 3: Create Plan

Load ./references/03-create-plan.md

Inputs: Brief, executor type, scope decisions

Progression: Detailed execution plan created with all sections populated.

Stage 4: Prepare Handoff

Load ./references/04-prepare-handoff.md

Inputs: Product plan, executor type

Progression: Executor handoff bundle formatted and saved. Product context updated with plan reference.

On Activation

1. Load shared context from {project-root}/.pawbytes/prodig-suites/index.md
2. Load product context: .pawbytes/prodig-suites/products/{product-slug}/product-context.md
3. If no product slug provided, list available products for selection

Path Resolution

Plans root: {project-root}/.pawbytes/prodig-suites/plans/{product-slug}/

Product context: {project-root}/.pawbytes/prodig-suites/products/{product-slug}/product-context.md

Handoff bundle: {project-root}/.pawbytes/prodig-suites/plans/{product-slug}/handoff.md

Executor Types

Product Family	Executor	Plan Focus
Knowledge	Knowledge Builder	Content structure, research scope, deliverable format
Template	Template Builder	Component structure, customization points, usage patterns
Software	Software Builder	Technical specs, architecture, implementation phases
Service	Service Builder	Service definition, delivery process, quality criteria

Output Contract

Every product plan includes:

• Plan type: Which executor will use it
• Source brief: Reference to original decisions
• Scope: What is included and excluded
• Deliverables: Specific outputs expected
• Success criteria: Measurable completion conditions
• File saved to: Resolved path

Non-Negotiables

1. Plan must be specific enough for executor to act without clarification
2. All scope decisions must be explicitly stated
3. Executor type must be clearly identified
4. Handoff bundle must be self-contained
