What problem does it solve? Turning a plan, spec, or long conversation into actionable work items is hard: tasks end up too coarse, horizontally sliced by layer, or missing dependency information, so work cannot be parallelized or handed to agents. This Skill decomposes work into vertical tracer-bullet tickets, each declaring exactly which other tickets block it. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Vertical slice breakdown: Splits work into narrow but complete slices cutting through schema, API, UI, and tests, each demoable on its own and sized for a single context window. - Blocking edge modeling: Every ticket declares the tickets that must complete first, so the workable frontier is always clear. - Wide refactor handling: Sequences large mechanical changes as expand-migrate-contract ticket chains that keep CI green batch to batch. - Flexible publishing: Writes one local Markdown file per ticket under .scratch, or publishes real issues with native blocking links and a ready-for-agent label on trackers like GitHub or Linear. - Use Case: After drafting a feature spec, ask the agent to break it into tickets; it proposes a numbered breakdown with blocking edges, quizzes you on granularity, then publishes the approved tickets to your configured tracker. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to break the current plan or spec into tracer-bullet tickets and publish them to the configured issue tracker.
