# PRD Generator - Claude Desktop Extension  A simple Claude Desktop Extension (DXT) that generates Product Requirements Documents (PRDs) from README files with a single click. ## Features - **One-click installation** - No complex setup or configuration files - **Automatic PRD generation** from README files - **File system access** - Read README files from any path - **Time-saving documentation** - Generate structured PRDs in seconds - **Cross-platform support** - Works on Windows, Mac, and Linux ## What This Extension Does This extension provides a simple tool that: 1. Reads your project's README file 2. Extracts key information from the content 3. Generates a structured Product Requirements Document 4. Saves you time on documentation tasks ## Prerequisites - **Claude Desktop** (latest version with DXT support) - **Node.js** (bundled with Claude Desktop) - **DXT Toolchain**: `npm install -g @anthropic-ai/dxt` ## Installation ### Option 1: Install Pre-built Extension 1. Download the latest `prd-generator.dxt` file from the releases 2. Open Claude Desktop 3. Go to **Settings > Extensions** 4. Drag the `.dxt` file into the window or click "Upload" 5. Click "Install" 6. Done! ### Option 2: Build from Source ```bash # Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/yourusername/prd-generator-dxt.git cd prd-generator-dxt # Install dependencies npm install # Test the server npm start # Package the extension npx @anthropic-ai/dxt pack ``` ## 🛠️ Usage After installation, you can use the extension in Claude Desktop: ```markdown Generate a PRD from my README at /path/to/your/readme.md ``` The extension will: - Read your README file - Extract the first 5 lines as the project description - Generate a structured PRD with sections for: - Project Overview - Description - Key Features - Technical Requirements - Generation timestamp ## Project Structure ```markdown prd-generator/ ├── server/ │ └── index.js # Main MCP server code ├── manifest.json # Extension configuration ├── package.json # Node.js dependencies ├── package-lock.json # Dependency lock file └── README.md # This file ``` ## 🔧 Development ### Running Locally ```bash # Start the MCP server npm start # Or run directly node server/index.js ``` ### Building the Extension ```bash # Package into .dxt file npx @anthropic-ai/dxt pack ``` ### Testing 1. Ensure your server runs without errors 2. Test with a sample README file 3. Verify the generated PRD format ## Generated PRD Format The extension generates PRDs with the following structure: ```markdown # Product Requirements Document ## Project Overview Based on: [README file path] ## Description [First 5 lines from README] ## Key Features - Feature extraction from README - Automated PRD generation - Time-saving documentation ## Technical Requirements - Node.js runtime - File system access - README file parsing Generated on: [ISO timestamp] ``` ## Contributing 1.
