SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Generate comprehensive execution plans for features, epics, or large tasks, converting high-level ideas into structured, trackable work.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured planning: break features into tracks and beads with explicit dependencies and scopes.
  • Roadmap alignment: produce an actionable execution plan that links to discovery, approach, spikes (optional), and verification criteria.
  • Handoff-ready output: generate artifact files (discovery.md, approach.md, execution-plan.md) for team alignment.

Quick Start

Start by describing a feature or epic you want to plan, including any known constraints (deadline, tech stack, integration points). The skill will return a complete execution plan with tracks, beads, and a clear acceptance criteria.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn vague ideas into an actionable roadmap with trackable work?

To turn vague ideas into an actionable roadmap, you need a structured planning process that scopes high-level features into tracks and beads with explicit dependencies, file scopes, and verification criteria. This generates artifact files like execution-plan.md for team alignment.

What is the best way to break down epics or large tasks into structured execution plans?

Breaking down epics into structured execution plans involves translating high-level ideas into a phased pipeline: Discovery, Approach, Spike, and Execution. This process scopes work into manageable tracks and beads with defined dependencies and clear acceptance criteria.

How do I generate handoff-ready project management artifacts for team alignment?

Generate handoff-ready project management artifacts by processing feature descriptions and constraints through a phased pipeline. This outputs markdown files including discovery.md, approach.md, and execution-plan.md, enabling fast and clear team handoffs.

Can I plan a software feature with specific deadlines and tech stack constraints?

Yes, you can plan software features with specific deadlines and tech stack constraints. By providing known integration points and constraints upfront, the planning process scopes work into tracks and beads with verification criteria tailored to your requirements.

When do I need to use a phased pipeline for project management and feature planning?

You need a phased pipeline for project management when translating large, complex epics into trackable work. The Discovery, Approach, Spike, and Execution phases ensure high-level ideas are properly scoped with dependencies and file scopes before execution.

Why does my feature planning lack clear dependencies and verification criteria?

Feature planning lacks clear dependencies and verification criteria when high-level ideas are not scoped into structured tracks and beads. Applying a phased pipeline ensures explicit dependencies, file scopes, and acceptance criteria are defined for actionable execution.
