SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill extracts and structures methodology sections from other skills' SKILL.md files to enable deterministic sprint decomposition and task planning.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Parses methodology blocks demarcated by <!-- methodology:start --> and <!-- methodology:end --> in a caller skill's SKILL.md.
  • Converts phases and steps into a structured, machine-readable model consumable by task-decomposer.
  • Supports both single-phase lists and multi-phase datasets, with validation of required fields.
  • Handles absence of a methodology section gracefully, producing an empty result for flexible integration.

Quick Start

Provide a caller skill with a methodology block to generate a structured plan for sprint decomposition.

FAQPage Schema
How do I parse a methodology section from a SKILL.md file for sprint planning?

Parsing methodology blocks from SKILL.md files extracts phases and steps demarcated by start and end tags, converting them into a structured, machine-readable data model for deterministic sprint planning and task decomposition.

What happens if there is no methodology block in my SKILL.md file?

When no methodology section is present in the SKILL.md file, the parser handles the absence gracefully by producing an empty result, allowing flexible integration into your sprint decomposition workflow without breaking the pipeline.

Does the methodology parser support both single-phase and multi-phase formats?

Yes, the methodology parser supports both single-phase lists and multi-phase datasets. It validates required fields and processes optional can_skip_if conditions to output a consistent plan for downstream task decomposition.

How do I structure methodology blocks in markdown for automated task decomposition?

Structure methodology blocks in markdown by wrapping phases and steps between start and end comment tags. The parser enforces required fields and extracts this structured data to feed directly into a task-decomposer for sprint planning.

Can I use conditional logic to skip steps during methodology decomposition?

Yes, you can use conditional logic to skip steps during methodology decomposition by including optional can_skip_if conditions in your SKILL.md methodology block, which the parser validates and includes in the structured output.
