SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Breaks a PRD into independently-grabbable GitHub issues using vertical slices with HITL/AFK tagging and dependency ordering.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Vertical-slice issue planning: translates PRD sections into end-to-end work items that can be assigned dependencies.
  • HITL/AFK classification: marks slices as requiring human input or auto-implementable.
  • GitHub integration: creates issues in dependency order using gh CLI.
  • Use Case: Convert a multi-theme PRD into a linked set of user stories and technical tasks with clear blockers and dependencies.

Quick Start

Provide a PRD number to begin and I will draft vertical slices and create linked GitHub issues in dependency order.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert a PRD into GitHub issues?▼

To convert a PRD into GitHub issues, you provide the PRD number and the tool drafts vertical slices, then creates linked issues in dependency order. It classifies each slice with HITL or AFK tagging for clear workflow tracking.

What are vertical slices in PRD-to-ticket conversion?▼

Vertical slices in PRD-to-ticket conversion are end-to-end work items translated from PRD sections that can be assigned dependencies. They allow issues to be independently grabbable by developers, ensuring clear blockers and sequencing.

Do I need the gh CLI to create GitHub issues in dependency order?▼

Yes, creating GitHub issues in dependency order requires the gh CLI for GitHub integration. The tool uses this command-line interface to automatically generate and link the sliced user stories and technical tasks.

Can I automate PRD task breakdown with HITL and AFK tagging?▼

You can automate PRD task breakdown with HITL and AFK tagging by processing the document into vertical slices. The tool marks slices as requiring human input or auto-implementable, creating linked issues in dependency order.

What is the best way to sequence GitHub issues from a multi-theme PRD?▼

The best way to sequence GitHub issues from a multi-theme PRD is by using dependency-aware vertical slice planning. This approach translates PRD sections into linked user stories with clear blockers, creating issues in precise dependency order.
