This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (repo unreachable/deleted). The test below is what we measured on Jul 25, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.

Filed the same 'login times out after 30s on mobile Safari' bug both ways: the baseline produced a solid report, but the template added fields it omitted -- workaround availability, users-affected %, reproduction rate, business impact, a constitution checklist and ready Jira/Linear export blocks -- a real completeness gain for sprint-ready issues. The catch is broken plumbing: SKILL.md points at workflows/prod-clarify.md, prod-spec-story.md and prod-spec-task.md that do not exist (actual files are prod-spec-clarify.md, prod-spec-epic.md, prod-spec-issue.md), and quick-issue-template.md references a missing templates/stories-template.md, so the primary 'create a story' path dead-ends. The bug, task, spike, PRD, epic and constitution files are present and usable.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 3/5
  • Triggers reliably 5/5
  • Output vs. baseline 7/10
  • Docs & honesty 4/5

What Product Spec Kit does

A product-management documentation kit that produces PRDs, release plans, epics, user stories, tasks, bugs and spikes from constitution-governed templates with design-driven, testable acceptance criteria. Triggers when a user asks to create a PRD, break an epic into stories, or file a structured bug/task. Supports both full PRD -> Plan -> Stories workflows and standalone quick issues, with export snippets for Jira, Linear, GitHub and Azure.

How to install Product Spec Kit

Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.

Commands — how to trigger Product Spec Kit

  • /product-spec-kit Template kit for PRDs, epics, stories and bugs with testable acceptance criteria

It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:

  • Create a PRD for our new onboarding feature
  • Break this epic into user stories with acceptance criteria
  • File a structured bug report for the mobile Safari login timeout

Frequently asked questions

Is the Product Spec Kit skill free?
Yes. The skill itself is free from diegoeis/product-spec-kit. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.
Does Product Spec Kit work with Claude Code?

How do I install Product Spec Kit?
Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
Can I use Product Spec Kit with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
