SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the conversion of Product Requirement Documents (PRDs) into structured "beads" (tasks) for the ralph-tui execution engine, streamlining the development workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • PRD to Bead Conversion: Transforms markdown PRDs into actionable epic and child beads.
  • Quality Gate Integration: Automatically extracts and appends quality gates to each bead's acceptance criteria.
  • Dependency Management: Establishes correct dependencies between beads for sequential execution.
  • Use Case: You have a detailed PRD for a new feature. This Skill will break it down into manageable, executable tasks (beads) with clear acceptance criteria and dependencies, ready for ralph-tui to process.

Quick Start

Use the ralph-tui-create-beads skill to convert the provided PRD into beads.

What is the best way to automate task generation from a Product Requirement Document?

Automating task generation from a Product Requirement Document is best handled by extracting quality gates and defining dependencies between user stories, establishing correct sequential execution for autonomous agents.

How does dependency management work when converting PRDs to executable beads?

Dependency management when converting PRDs to executable beads works by establishing correct dependencies between generated user stories, ensuring sequential execution and proper story sizing for autonomous agent workflows.

Can I use this to extract quality gates and append them to task acceptance criteria?

Yes, you can use this to extract quality gates from your PRD and automatically append them to each generated bead's acceptance criteria, ensuring autonomous agents meet all defined requirements.

Do I need ralph-tui to generate beads from a markdown PRD?

You need ralph-tui to execute the generated beads, but this Skill handles the conversion of markdown PRDs into the JSONL format required by the ralph-tui execution engine.

What format are the generated beads output in for workflow automation?

The generated beads are output in a JSONL format, structuring epics and child beads with dependencies and acceptance criteria ready for workflow automation.
