generate-stories

To generate stories from an epic automatically, this skill reads your epic documents and produces a validated breakdown of actionable stories with unique IDs, titles, and descriptions. It spawns parallel agents to scale software delivery without manual writing.

The best way to break down an epic is using automated validation and parallel story-agent execution. This process ensures non-overlapping scopes and generates cohesive stories with associated branches and PRs for rapid implementation.

Automated story generation prevents duplicates by checking existing stories within your project directory before creating new ones. It validates scopes to ensure no overlaps and assigns globally unique IDs to every generated story breakdown.

To manage epic documents for automated story breakdown, place your epics in the .saga/epics directory. The skill reads these documents, prompts for approval on the generated breakdown, and outputs story.json files with worktree paths.

Yes, you can spawn parallel story-generation agents to create story branches and PRs at scale. The system aggregates results from each agent into a completion report, accelerating implementation across multiple cohesive stories.

Automated epic breakdown includes an approval workflow before spawning agents. After reading the epic and generating a proposed breakdown, it prompts for your approval to ensure the story scope and IDs match your expectations.
