SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill streamlines the transition from epics to actionable development work by turning high-level requirements into concrete story files, each linked to a TR-ID and ADR.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Decomposes epics into story-level tasks with TR-IDs and ADRs.
  • Generates production-ready story files under production/epics/<epic-slug>/story-NNN-<slug>.md that developers can work on.
  • Provides traceability through linked PRD, ADR, and TR references to support audits and reviews.

Quick Start

Invoke the create-stories skill with an epic slug to generate the initial set of stories.

FAQPage Schema
How do I decompose epics into actionable developer stories with acceptance criteria?

To decompose epics into actionable developer stories, you generate story-level files that include specific acceptance criteria, test-evidence paths, and governing ADRs for traceability. This breaks down high-level requirements into implementable tasks.

What is the best way to link ADR governance and TR-ID references to development stories?

Linking ADR governance and TR-ID references to development stories is achieved by generating story files that explicitly map each task to its governing ADR and TR reference, ensuring full traceability for audits and architectural reviews.

How do I generate story files in dependency order from a single epic?

Generating story files in dependency order from a single epic involves processing the epic to output implementable markdown files under a specific epic directory, sequenced so developers can execute tasks in the correct progression.

Do I need to create epics before generating story files for developers?

Yes, you need to create epics before generating story files because the story decomposition process runs after epic creation to consume the epic slug and produce the downstream story-level tasks required by developers.

Can I include test-evidence paths directly within acceptance criteria for story decomposition?

Yes, you can include test-evidence paths within acceptance criteria because the story decomposition process explicitly ensures each generated story file contains its acceptance criteria alongside the required test-evidence path for validation.
