What problem does it solve?
This skill turns a PRD into an organized epic and story plan, ensuring every FR maps to exactly one epic and that coverage is validated before implementation.
Core Features & Use Cases
- User-value epic decomposition: Groups functionality by what users can accomplish, not by technical layers.
- Story list planning (no story files): Produces a per-epic story list with clear user outcomes and FR mapping, leaving story file creation to the next skill.
- FR coverage discipline: Validates that every PRD FR appears in the plan and surfaces a running coverage matrix during design.
- Ticket readiness (optional): Seeds ticket/milestone planning when a ticket system is configured, after user confirmation gates.
Quick Start
Run aped-epics when you want to break your PRD into epics and a story list, and then confirm the A/P/C gate when prompted.
