Writing Specs That Decide
The spec layer. Anything big enough to argue about gets a written spec before it enters a cycle, with the problem, the evidence, the proposed shape, the acceptance criteria, the open questions, and what is out of scope, so the argument happens on paper instead of in the diff.
Your Righthand makes sure no sizeable piece of work enters a cycle without a spec. Every Tuesday it looks at what is about to start, drafts the missing specs in your agreed template and location, links them to their issues, and sends you the one open question in each that people are most likely to fight about. For anything big or hard to undo, it also writes the half-page pre-mortem nobody asked for and attaches it, so the two most likely ways it fails are on the table before the work begins.

- Product
Writing Product Specs
Write, structure, and maintain product specs — PRDs, feature specs, one-pagers, and scope documents. Use when: defining a new feature, scoping work for engineering, proposing a product change to stakeholders, or refining an existing spec that's unclear. Covers problem framing, solution design, acceptance criteria, edge cases, and trade-off documentation. PM-focused — produces artifacts that drive decisions and unblock engineering.
- Documents
Decision Memos
Use when writing the artifact behind a decision — one-pagers, strawman memos, and simple models that put options, a recommendation, and "what would change my mind" in front of the room before the meeting.
