Ouroboros Adds PM Interview Mode for Claude Code to Bridge Spec Gap
A developer has added a PM mode to Ouroboros, a tool that works with Claude Code, to address a common pattern where product managers either write overly detailed specs that get ignored or skip specs and get irrelevant results.
How the PM Mode Works
The command ooo pm runs a guided interview before the normal build handoff. It asks questions that a PM and engineer would typically work through together:
- What problem are we solving
- Who is it for
- What constraints matter
- What does success look like
- What can be decided later
Key Features
The interview can pull in brownfield repository context, grounding the conversation in the existing codebase rather than being generic. It separates PM-answerable questions from developer-only questions to prevent the conversation from getting derailed by premature implementation details.
The output is a PRD/PM document that includes:
- Goal
- User stories
- Constraints
- Success criteria
- Assumptions
- Deferred items
Example Usage
To use it, you would run: ooo pm "I want to build a notification system"
The developer describes this as "a harness around Claude Code for PMs" that forces the requirements conversation first, then hands off a cleaner specification into the build flow.
The tool is open source, with the GitHub repository at Q00/ouroboros. The developer is seeking feedback from PMs using Claude Code who have experienced the gap between having an idea and getting something an agent can reliably build.
