Write a PRD for a physical hardware product — target cost (BOM and landed), industrial design constraints, regulatory certifications, reliability targets, serviceability, packaging, and forecast assumptions. Use when asked to write a hardware PRD, spec a new device, define requirements for a physical product, or kick off an NPI program. Produces a complete hardware PRD with a cost stack, cert matrix, reliability spec, and EVT/DVT/PVT milestone targets.

# Hardware PRD Skill

A software PRD can ship wrong and patch later; a hardware PRD is cut into steel and soldered onto boards. This skill writes a PRD that forces the decisions that get expensive after tooling: cost targets with a full stack (not just BOM), certifications named per market, reliability as numbers, and forecast assumptions stated so the supply chain can be sized honestly.

## What This Skill Produces

- A complete hardware PRD with numbered, testable requirements (shall-statements)
- A target cost stack: BOM → COGS → landed cost, with margin math
- A regulatory/certification matrix per target market
- Reliability, serviceability, and packaging requirements with acceptance numbers
- Forecast assumptions and the EVT/DVT/PVT milestones the schedule hangs on
