To replan stories when epic requirements change, compare ideal future state requirements against existing story definitions, categorize necessary operations, and execute changes directly in the Linear project management tool for continuous alignment.

Story categorization for agile epic management identifies existing stories to KEEP, UPDATE, OBSOLETE, or CREATE based on requirement changes, ensuring development efforts remain focused and efficient when an epic's scope expands or shifts.

Automating task synchronization between updated epics and existing stories is possible by comparing requirement changes and executing identified operations directly within the Linear tool, which automatically updates or flags related stories.

The story replanner works with existing story definitions in the Linear app by comparing them against ideal future state requirements and executing the identified operations to prevent outdated work.

The best way to handle requirement changes without creating outdated work is to compare ideal versus existing story definitions, flag related stories as obsolete, and create new tasks directly in Linear.

You should not use automated story replanning for epic management when an epic's scope is stable and requires no shifts, as the process focuses on categorizing and executing operations for changed requirement definitions.
