SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill converts an approved Elicitation Document into a structured set of Epics so teams can move from raw stakeholder inputs to outcome-shaped, reviewable delivery containers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Decomposes approved requirements: Reads Accepted BUCs, FRs, NFRs, and constraints from the Elicitation Document and organizes them into Epic files.
  • Applies merge/split heuristics safely: Proposes merges or splits based on BUC coupling signals only at seeding time, using Open Questions for human confirmation.
  • Enforces coverage and immutability rules: Ensures Accepted FRs are assigned exactly once (cross-cutting NFRs allowed), validates key integrity checks, and protects Accepted/Rejected Epics from unintended regeneration.
  • Rebuilds an always-current index: Produces artifacts/02-epics/index.md with an Epic map, coverage matrices, aggregated Open Questions, and acceptance overview.

Quick Start

Run the create-epics skill after the elicitation document is approved by typing: /create-epics.

Frequently Asked Questions about create-epics

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I decompose approved requirements into epics for release planning?▼

To decompose approved requirements, this Skill translates Accepted BUCs and linked FRs, NFRs, and constraints from an approved elicitation document into outcome-shaped epic artifacts with per-epic markdown files.

What is BUC to epic mapping and how does it handle requirement traceability?▼

BUC to epic mapping organizes approved requirements into outcome-shaped delivery containers, ensuring requirement traceability by validating that Accepted FRs are assigned exactly once while permitting cross-cutting NFRs.

How do I merge or split epics based on requirement coupling?▼

Proposing to merge or split epics relies on BUC coupling signals at seeding time, generating Open Questions for human confirmation to safely restructure delivery containers.

How do I generate an epic index with coverage matrices and validation checks?▼

Generating an epic index rebuilds an always-current markdown file containing an epic map, coverage matrices, aggregated Open Questions, and acceptance overview by enforcing approval integrity gates and validation checks.

Can I regenerate pending epic content without overwriting accepted epics?▼

Regenerating Pending epic content from current epic files preserves approval integrity, as immutability rules protect Accepted and Rejected Epics from unintended regeneration during the rebuild process.

When should I not use automated epic generation for requirements decomposition?▼

Avoid automated epic generation when your elicitation document lacks approved BUCs or Accepted FRs, as the Skill enforces approval integrity gates and requires human confirmation for merge or split proposals.
