SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

plan-to-epic automates the transformation of implementation plans (from superpowers:writing-plans) and design documents (from superpowers:brainstorming) into beads epics ready for epic-executor, reducing manual coordination and drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Convert a structured plan into an epic with tasks, acceptance criteria, and inferred dependencies.
  • Ingest optional design context to enrich tasks with architecture decisions, data flow, and constraints.
  • Automatically organize tasks by dependencies and provide a ready-to-run epic for execution.

Quick Start

Run plan-to-epic on your plan file to generate an epic with tasks.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert an implementation plan into an epic with tasks and dependencies?

To convert an implementation plan into an epic, apply plan-to-epic to extract tasks, acceptance criteria, and inferred dependencies from structured plans. It organizes tasks by relationships and produces an epic body ready for execution.

How does inferred task dependency extraction work from design documents?

Inferred task dependency extraction works by analyzing plans and design documents to identify relationships between tasks. It automatically orders tasks based on inferred dependencies and integrates architectural constraints from the provided design context.

Can I use plan-to-epic with brainstorming outputs to generate task management structures?

Yes, you can use plan-to-epic with brainstorming outputs. It accepts design documents and brainstorming outputs as input, extracting actionable tasks and acceptance criteria to generate organized project management structures.

What is the best way to enrich epic tasks with architecture decisions and data flow constraints?

The best way to enrich epic tasks with architecture decisions is by ingesting optional design context during plan conversion. plan-to-epic integrates this design context directly into task descriptors while extracting dependencies from the source content.

Do I need a structured plan file to generate an epic ready for execution?

Yes, you need a structured plan file or design document to generate an epic. plan-to-epic transforms these source documents by extracting tasks and dependencies to produce an organized epic body ready for execution.
