MKT2700 — ProdDevIQ Phase 2

PRD to Working Prototype | Spring 2026 | Northeastern University

Overview

Phase 2 takes your Product Requirements Document from Phase 1 and turns it into a working prototype. This repository includes AI-powered skills and agents that guide you through every step — from choosing a tech stack to deploying a live demo.

Quick Start

1. Download this repo — Click Code → Download ZIP
2. Extract to your G: Drive — Right-click → Extract Here
3. Open terminal — cd into the extracted folder
4. Copy Phase 1 files — Move your product-requirements.md, evaluation-rubric.md, and strategic-brief.md into the project root
5. Start Claude Code — Type claude and begin with /student-app-starter

What's Included

Skills (11)

Guided workflows for each step of the prototype process:

Category	Skills
Scaffolding	student-app-starter, start-new-project
Development	frontend-master, backend-master, shadcn-ui
Version Control	github-master
Problem Solving	when-stuck
Evaluation	rubric-creation, llm-council-protocol, synthetic-persona-validation
Presentation	pptx

Agents (3)

Specialist AI agents you can delegate tasks to:

• architect-reviewer — System design validation
• frontend-developer — Frontend implementation
• backend-developer — Backend implementation

Prerequisites

• Claude Code installed (npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code)
• Northeastern account logged into Claude Code (free Opus 4.6 access)
• Phase 1 deliverables (PRD, rubric, strategic brief)
• Gemini API key (for LLM Council — free from Google AI Studio)

The Companion (Browser GUI)

The Companion gives you a browser-based interface for Claude Code — multiple sessions side by side, visual tool call feedback, and streaming responses. Much easier than a plain terminal.

Quick Install

Mac / Linux:

bash install-companion.sh

Windows (PowerShell):

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File install-companion.ps1

Manual Install

1. Install Bun (one-time):
   • Mac/Linux: curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash
   • Windows PowerShell: irm bun.sh/install.ps1 | iex
2. Launch: bunx the-companion
3. Open localhost:3456 in your browser

What You Get

• Multiple sessions — Run several Claude Code instances side by side
• Streaming — See responses token by token as they're written
• Tool visibility — Every file edit, bash command, and search shown in collapsible blocks
• Subagent nesting — Watch agent teams work hierarchically
• Permission control — Approve or deny tool calls from the browser

Phase 2 Deliverables
