des-story-readiness-check

What problem does it solve?

It prevents implementation stories from being started when they lack the required clarity, acceptance criteria, test expectations, data contract/quality rules, governance/security constraints, or traceability to DES artifacts.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Story readiness evaluation: Assesses story clarity, scope, and epic mapping before development begins.
• Traceability and specification coverage: Verifies that each story maps to the correct DES planning and implementation artifacts by story type (ingestion, bronze, silver, gold, serving, CI/CD).
• Safety and dependency guardrails: Flags missing or conflicting requirements (quality/contract/governance/security), unresolved dependencies, blockers, and story size problems to avoid unsafe or non-implementable work.
• Actionable reporting and handoff: Produces a Story Readiness Report and recommends the next step for ready stories (handoff to des-dev-task-breakdown).

Quick Start

Use des-story-readiness-check to generate a story-readiness-report for the selected stories using the existing story-catalog and sprint-plan artifacts already produced by prior skills.
