SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the process of dissecting a Product Requirements Document (PRD) into granular, independently deliverable GitHub issues, streamlining the development workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Vertical Slicing: Breaks down complex requirements into thin, end-to-end vertical slices (tracer bullets).
  • Issue Categorization: Differentiates between Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) and Asynchronous (AFK) tasks.
  • Dependency Mapping: Identifies and documents inter-issue dependencies.
  • GitHub Issue Creation: Generates GitHub issues with pre-defined templates, including acceptance criteria and user story mapping.
  • Use Case: A product manager provides a PRD for a new feature. The AI analyzes it, proposes a series of vertical slices like "Implement API endpoint for user creation," "Develop UI form for user registration," and "Write end-to-end tests for user onboarding," then creates these as GitHub issues with appropriate dependencies.

Quick Start

Use the PRD to Issues skill to break down the PRD in issue number 123.
