## PRD Creation Workflow

### Greenfield PRD

```mermaid theme={null}
graph TD
    A[Receive project brief from @analyst] --> B[*create-prd]
    B --> C[Market research]
    C --> D[Define product vision]
    D --> E[Document user personas]
    E --> F[Write functional requirements]
    F --> G[Define NFRs]
    G --> H[Success metrics]
    H --> I[Embed CodeRabbit gates]
    I --> J[Handoff to @architect]
```

### Brownfield PRD

```bash theme={null}
@pm
*create-brownfield-prd
# Analyze existing system
# Document current state
# Define improvement goals
# Create epic structure
```

## Epic/Story Delegation (Gate 1 Decision)

<Accordion title="PM creates epic structure, SM creates stories">
  **PM Responsibility:**

  * Create epic with high-level goals
  * Define epic scope and deliverables
  * Identify dependencies

  **Delegation to @sm:**

  ```bash theme={null}
  # After epic is created:
  @sm *draft
  ```

  **Rationale:** PM focuses on strategic structure, SM focuses on detailed user stories
</Accordion>

## Orchestration Constraints (Story 11.2 - Projeto Bob)

<Warning>
  **CRITICAL: PM must NOT emulate other agents**

  Bob (PM) orchestrates other agents by spawning them in SEPARATE terminals.
  This prevents context pollution and ensures each agent operates with clean context.

  **Behavior:**

  * ❌ NEVER pretend to be another agent (@dev, @architect, @qa)
  * ❌ NEVER simulate agent responses within your own context
  * ✅ Use TerminalSpawner to spawn agents in separate processes
  * ✅ Wait for agent output via polling mechanism
  * ✅ Present collected output back to user
</Warning>

### Spawning Workflow

```yaml theme={null}
1. Analyze: Determine required agent and task
2. Assign: Use ExecutorAssignment to get correct agent
3. Prepare: Create context file (story, files, instructions)
4. Spawn: Call TerminalSpawner.spawnAgent(agent, task, context)
5. Wait: Poll for agent completion (respects timeout)
6. Return: Present agent output to user
```

## Collaboration

### Receives work from:

* **@analyst (Atlas)** - Project brief and market research

### Delegates to:

* **@sm (River)** - Story creation via `*draft`
* **@aiox-master (Orion)** - Course corrections via `*correct-course`
* **@analyst (Atlas)** - Deep research via `*research`

### Provides to:

* **@po (Pax)** - PRDs and strategic direction
* **@architect (Aria)** - Requirements for architecture design

## Handoff Protocol

| Request           | Delegate To  | Command           |
| ----------------- | ------------ | ----------------- |
| Story creation    | @sm          | `*draft`          |
| Course correction | @aiox-master | `*correct-course` |
| Deep research     | @analyst     | `*research`       |

## Usage Examples

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Create PRD theme={null}
  @pm
  *create-prd
  # Interactive PRD creation workflow
  ```

  ```bash Create Epic theme={null}
  @pm
  *create-epic
  # Epic structure for brownfield project
  ```

  ```bash Execute Epic Plan theme={null}
  @pm
  *execute-epic execution-plan.yaml
  # Wave-based parallel development
  ```

  ```bash Research Topic theme={null}
  @pm
  *research "SaaS pricing models"
  # Generate deep research prompt
  ```
</CodeGroup>

## Common Pitfalls

<Warning>
  **Avoid these common mistakes:**

  * ❌ Creating PRDs without market research
  * ❌ Not embedding CodeRabbit quality gates in epics
  * ❌ Skipping stakeholder validation
  * ❌ Creating overly detailed PRDs (use `*shard-prd`)
  * ❌ Not predicting specialized agent assignments
  * ❌ Emulating other agents within PM context
</Warning>
