FAQPage Schema

How do I convert a PRD into a phased implementation plan?▼

Vertical-slice planning decomposes a PRD into end-to-end slices that cut across architecture, API, UI, and tests. This approach captures durable decisions like routes, schemas, and data models to guide future development work and milestones.

What's the best way to break down product requirements into vertical slices?▼

Yes, tracer-bullet plans enforce durable decisions by explicitly capturing routes, schemas, and data models during decomposition. These decisions are documented within the generated Markdown file to guide subsequent development phases.

Where does the generated PRD plan file get saved?▼

The generated PRD plan file is saved as a local Markdown file in the ./plans/ directory. This ensures the structured, multi-phase implementation plan is readily accessible for local development and version control.

Do I need any specific dependencies to generate a plan from a PRD?▼

No specific dependencies are required to generate a plan from a PRD. You simply need to paste your Product Requirements Document to produce the structured Markdown plan file output in your local environment.
