ring:pre-dev-task-breakdown

To break down product requirements, translate PRD and TRD inputs into executable tasks with concrete deliverables, success criteria, dependency mapping, and a clear Definition of Done to ensure measurable value delivery in each sprint.

Gate 7 readiness in task decomposition ensures all TRD components are covered, every task delivers working software, and dependencies, risks with mitigations, and a Definition of Done are explicitly validated before development begins.

Map dependencies and risks during early planning by extracting TRD inputs to sequence delivery, defining testing strategies, and assigning mitigations to ensure each task's deliverables meet the established success criteria and Definition of Done.

Agile task breakdown requires PRD and TRD inputs to enforce concrete deliverables and Gate 7 readiness. Without complete TRD inputs, generating verifiable tasks with explicit success criteria, dependency mapping, and a Definition of Done is not supported.

The best way to define a Definition of Done for subtask creation is to enforce that every decomposed task delivers working software with explicit testing strategies, risk mitigations, and verifiable success criteria mapped directly from TRD inputs.

Task decomposition fails to deliver measurable value when tasks lack concrete deliverables, explicit success criteria, and a clear Definition of Done. Structured breakdown maps dependencies and risks to ensure each task delivers working software.
