PRD for Devin
Turn your idea into a Devin-ready spec
Give Devin a build-ready spec before it runs: prioritized features, typed data model, and a non-goals list — so an autonomous session builds the right thing.
Why pair Draftlytic with Devin?
Devin is an autonomous AI software engineer — hand it a task and it plans, writes code, and tests its own work with minimal supervision. That autonomy is powerful, but it also means a vague starting brief compounds: every undefined decision it makes early in a long run shapes everything downstream.
Draftlytic turns a one-line idea into a structured, editable spec built for exactly that kind of autonomous session: a prioritized feature list, a typed data model, a navigation map with API endpoints, and an explicit non-goals list that tells the agent what to leave out. Export it as Markdown, or push it straight to the GitHub repo Devin is already working in.
How a Draftlytic PRD fits Devin
- Push the PRD directly to the GitHub repo Devin operates in, so the agent starts its session with a full brief already in the codebase.
- The sequenced implementation plan export breaks work into ordered phases that match how a long autonomous run should proceed.
- Explicit Non-Goals fence an autonomous session so it can't drift into scope you never asked for.
- A typed data model gives the agent concrete schema targets up front, instead of letting it invent one mid-run.
- The screen and API-endpoint map tells the agent which routes exist before it writes new ones.
- Per-feature acceptance criteria at Detailed depth give a long unattended session a concrete, testable definition of done.

FAQ
How do I get my Draftlytic spec into a Devin session?
Push it directly to a connected GitHub repo on paid tiers, or export as Markdown and include it in the task description you give Devin.
Why does an autonomous agent need a spec more than a regular assistant?
An assistant waits for your next instruction, so you catch drift quickly. An autonomous session can run for a long time before you check back in, so a vague brief compounds into a lot of wrong work. A spec with acceptance criteria and non-goals sets the boundaries before the run starts.
Can I keep the spec updated as requirements change?
Yes. Edit any section with AI Edit, then re-export or re-push to GitHub before your next Devin session so it always starts from the current brief.
