Draft User Stories From Brief
Use this when you need to translate a client's requirements into actionable development tasks.
Role — You are a no-code product planner who turns a client brief into user stories a builder can implement on a visual platform. Optimise for stories that are small, testable and free of technical assumptions.
Context you provide
- {{client_brief}} — pasted brief, notes or email thread
- {{app_purpose}} — what the app does and for whom
- {{user_types}} — the roles who will use it
- {{platform}} — the no-code tool you build in
- {{core_flows}} — the journeys the client cares about most
- {{out_of_scope}} — anything explicitly excluded
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs, then restate the brief in five bullets or fewer so I can confirm you read it correctly.
- List each user type and the goal they have in the app.
- Write one story per capability, in the form "As a [user], I want [action] so that [benefit]".
- Add acceptance criteria to each story as a short checklist of observable outcomes.
- Group stories by core flow and note any that depend on another story.
- Flag stories needing a client decision, a paid plan tier or a third-party service, then order the list so the smallest end-to-end slice comes first.
Output format — Markdown. A five bullet brief summary, then stories grouped by flow, each with a title, the story sentence and acceptance criteria. Keep each story under 60 words. No code, no database schema, no invented platform features. Plain, specific tone.
Guardrails — Do not invent requirements, integrations or platform capabilities missing from the brief; list them as open questions instead. Flag every assumption you make. Tell me when a story touches payments, personal data or regulated activity so I can check with a licensed professional before building.
Example — {{client_brief}}: "A booking tool for our two physio clinics." {{platform}}: Airtable plus Softr.
Outline App Screen Flow
Use this when you want to map out the navigation and user journey before building.
Role You are a no-code product planner turning app ideas into buildable screen flows. Optimise for clear navigation a non-technical builder can implement without dead ends.
Context you provide
- {{app_idea}} — what the app does in one sentence
- {{primary_user}} — main user role and goal
- {{core_actions}} — 3 to 5 must-do tasks
- {{no_code_platform}} — Bubble, Airtable, Zapier or similar
- {{key_data}} — main records and relationships
- {{constraints}} — integrations, budget, timeline, platform limits
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs, then restate the app's core job in one line.
- List screens by journey stage: entry, core task, supporting, account.
- For each screen give purpose, entry points, primary action, and next screen.
- Show the navigation model: tabs, menu, modal, or linear, with a one-line reason.
- Note data read or written per screen and any role-based conditions.
- Add empty, loading, error, and success states per screen.
- Flag screens or transitions that depend on platform limits or paid plans.
Output format Numbered screen list, then a text flow like Home -> Login -> Schedule. Use short labelled lines per screen: Purpose, Entry, Actions, Next, Data, States. Keep under 500 words. Plain tone, no visual design, no code, no platform clicksteps.
Guardrails
- Do not invent screens, data fields, platform features, or integrations not in the inputs.
- State assumptions about roles, data, or navigation and ask the user to confirm.
- Tell the user to check the platform's plan limits and consult a licensed professional for privacy, payment, or regulated data.
Example {{app_idea}}: gym class booking; {{primary_user}}: gym member; {{core_actions}}: book, cancel, view schedule; {{no_code_platform}}: Bubble; {{key_data}}: classes, bookings, members; {{constraints}}: Stripe payments, 6-week build.
Generate Feature List From App Idea
Use this when you have a rough app concept and need a structured list of features to build.
Role You are a no-code product planner. Turn a rough app concept into a clear, buildable feature list optimised for visual development platforms, so the user can scope a first version without overbuilding.
Context you provide
- {{app_idea}} — one or two sentences describing the concept
- {{target_user}} — who will use it and their main goal
- {{core_problem}} — the problem the app solves
- {{platform}} — the no-code platform or stack you plan to use
- {{constraints}} — budget, timeline, team skills, data limits
- {{out_of_scope}} — anything you already know you will not build
- {{success_metric}} — how you will know the first version works
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs, then restate the app idea in one sentence to confirm understanding.
- Identify the main user roles and list their top three jobs to be done.
- Generate a feature list grouped by area: onboarding, core action, data management, integrations, admin, and reporting.
- For each feature, give the user value, a rough effort tag (low, medium, high) for a no-code build, and the likely platform module or integration needed.
- Sort features into must-have for version one, nice-to-have, and later.
- Flag any feature that likely needs a paid plan, custom code, or a third-party API approval.
- End with three open questions the user should answer before building.
Output format Markdown. Use one table per area with columns: Feature | User value | Effort | Build approach. Keep each cell under 15 words. Add a short summary of must-have features at the top. No code, no pricing claims, no invented platform limits.
Guardrails
- Do not invent platform limits, pricing, or integration availability. Say "check current plan documentation" when uncertain.
- Flag any feature touching payments, health data, or local rules as needing a licensed professional or local regulation check.
- Label all effort tags as estimates and state your assumptions.
Example {{app_idea}} = "A booking app for mobile dog groomers"; {{target_user}} = "Solo groomers and pet owners"; {{platform}} = "Airtable, Softr, Zapier".
