Spec From a Rough Idea
Turns a one-line idea into a buildable scope with edge cases.

Base prompt
I will describe a feature idea in one or two lines. Produce: the user problem, the smallest version worth shipping, explicit non-goals, the data it needs, and five edge cases that will be forgotten.
Ask me at most three questions first, only if the answer would change the scope.
IDEA:
{{idea}}Follow-up steps
- 1
Cut it in half
The second cut is where the real minimum appears.
step 1Halve the scope again. What survives if we have three days, and what is the honest cost of dropping the rest? - 2
Name the failure
Loud failures get fixed. Quiet ones are the reason to write the spec.
step 2Describe how this feature fails quietly in production: the case nobody notices for two weeks.
