What problem does it solve?

Epic Blitz turns a draft epic into a chain-ready document by running a structured, adversarial critique at multiple abstraction levels and forcing a revision after each round, reducing the risk of brittle plans.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Three-round critique & revision: High, mid, and low abstraction critics review and a senior reviser produces an updated epic after each round.
  • Parallel panel review: Fifteen critics run across abstraction levels, generating artifact-oriented findings for focused decision-making.
  • Readiness assessment for chaining: Produces a terminal readiness output to determine whether the epic is ready for megaplan chain decomposition into milestone briefs.

Quick Start

Run epic-blitz on your draft epic file to produce a revised, chain-ready epic by invoking: megaplan run epic-blitz path/to/epic.md.

Frequently Asked Questions about epic-blitz

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate an epic document for milestone decomposition and strategic alignment?

To validate an epic document, you run a non-interactive execution over a provided draft input path. The process applies a three-round adversarial critique to verify milestone decomposition, strategic alignment, and implementation feasibility, ultimately producing a revised, chain-ready epic.

What is the best way to prepare a draft epic for chain planning readiness?

Preparing a draft epic for chain planning requires subjecting it to a parallel panel review of fifteen critics across multiple abstraction levels. This process generates artifact-oriented findings and a terminal readiness assessment to determine if the epic is ready for chain decomposition into milestone briefs.

How does an adversarial critique pipeline improve epic artifact modeling?

An adversarial critique pipeline improves epic artifact modeling by forcing structured revisions after each review round. Fifteen critics analyze orchestration semantics and CLI usability, generating focused findings that guide a senior reviser to update the epic and ensure robust artifact generation.

Can I use automated pipeline revision on a draft epic without manual intervention?

Automated pipeline revision supports non-interactive execution over a provided draft input path, meaning no manual intervention is required during the critique process. The system autonomously executes the three critique rounds and revisions to output structured panel artifacts.

When do I need a terminal readiness assessment artifact for milestone planning?

A terminal readiness assessment artifact is needed when you must determine whether your revised epic is fully prepared for megaplan chain decomposition. It validates that all abstraction levels have been critiqued and updated, confirming the epic is ready to be broken down into milestone briefs.
