SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of a prioritized product backlog from existing ArcKit artifacts, transforming requirements into actionable sprint-ready user stories.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Requirement Conversion: Automatically converts various requirement types (BR, FR, NFR, INT, DR) into appropriate backlog items (Epics, User Stories, Technical Tasks).
  • Prioritization: Employs multi-factor scoring (MoSCoW, risk, value, dependency) to rank backlog items.
  • Sprint Planning: Organizes stories into sprints, respecting dependencies and team velocity.
  • Use Case: A project manager needs to quickly generate a backlog for a new feature. They run this Skill, which scans existing requirements documents, prioritizes them, and outputs a sprint plan for the next 8 sprints, saving weeks of manual effort.
