FAQPage Schema
How do I convert a PRD into structured tasks for workflow automation?

To convert a PRD into structured tasks, this skill extracts quality gates and user stories, then generates an epic with child beads and sequenced dependencies. It outputs the structured tasks to .beads/beads.jsonl ready for execution.

What is the best way to automate PRD to epic generation with acceptance criteria?

Automating PRD to epic generation is done by parsing the document to map quality gates directly to acceptance criteria. It creates a parent epic bead and child beads for each user story with correctly sequenced dependencies.

Can I use this to extract quality gates from long PRD documents?

Yes, you can extract quality gates from long PRD documents. The skill applies to PRD documents of varying lengths, successfully parsing them to identify quality gates and generate appropriately structured task beads.

How do I generate sequenced dependencies for child tasks from a PRD?

Generating sequenced dependencies for child tasks from a PRD involves creating an epic bead with child beads representing individual user stories. The skill automatically establishes the correct dependency sequence between these beads.

Does the output format work directly with the ralph-tui tracker?

Yes, the output format works directly with the ralph-tui tracker. The skill generates a .beads/beads.jsonl file containing the epic, child beads, and acceptance criteria, which is ready for ralph-tui execution.
