A portfolio is a product,

A portfolio is a product, so I wrote a PRD for mine with guardrails and an hint of taste from my experience as a designer.
I specced it the way I'd spec a client product, designed v1 on figma then built it with Claude and then iterated to v4. Every design decision is mine, and every version that missed the spec got thrown out.
Here's what I think the real shift is. A designer who can specify precisely can now take something from idea to production-grade alone. Not a prototype. Not a screenshot that collapses at 375px. The build.
And the scarce skill in that isn't prompting. It's knowing exactly what good looks like and refusing everything that isn't it ,at every width, in every state, through every transition.
