SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps break down plans, PRDs, or OpenSpec changes into independently manageable issues for project tracking.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Plan Decomposition: Transform high-level plans into a series of issues for issue tracking systems.
  • Spec to Issues: Convert OpenSpec changes into issues, ensuring each issue is a complete vertical slice.
  • Use Case: When a team needs to implement a new feature, this Skill can take the feature specification and break it down into issues that can be tracked and worked on individually.

Quick Start

Run the 'to-issues' skill with the feature specification as input to create issues for the new feature implementation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert high-level project plans into actionable issues for issue tracking?

Converting project plans into actionable issues requires breaking down high-level specifications into a series of manageable tasks. This skill automates plan decomposition by transforming feature specifications into discrete issues for issue tracking systems.

What are vertical slices in issue tracking and why do they matter?

Vertical slices in issue tracking are independently manageable tasks that deliver end-to-end functionality. Ensuring each issue is a complete vertical slice allows team members to implement and track feature components individually without blocking dependencies.

Can I convert OpenSpec changes into trackable issues for project management?

Yes, you can convert OpenSpec changes directly into trackable issues. The skill supports OpenSpec changes by transforming specification documents into issues, ensuring each generated issue represents a complete vertical slice for implementation.

Do I need access to an issue tracker to decompose feature specifications?

Yes, access to the project's issue tracker is required to decompose feature specifications effectively. The skill requires issue tracker integration alongside knowledge of the project's domain vocabulary to ensure generated issues align with existing tracking workflows.

What is the best way to break down a PRD into issues that can be worked on individually?

The best way to break down a PRD into individually manageable issues is to ensure each issue represents a complete vertical slice. This skill processes feature specifications and PRDs, outputting trackable issues designed for independent implementation.
