SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill translates project goals and research findings into a structured, phased ToDo plan that guides product development from concept to delivery.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phase-based planning: Breaks work into distinct phases with clear milestones and success criteria.
  • Task specification and dependencies: Assigns unique IDs, prerequisites, blockers, and delivery artifacts for every task.
  • Concurrency and sequencing: Groups parallel tasks into Concurrency Groups with explicit dependencies to maximize parallel work without introducing risks.
  • Frontend/Backend separation and interfaces: Defines API contracts, data models, and UI components requirements early to enable parallel work.
  • Output for execution: Generates a structured backlog that can feed project management tools and developer tickets.

Quick Start

Provide the project guidelines document or extract (PRD, product phases) as input to generate the Todo plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate development todos from a PRD?

Generating development todos from a PRD involves translating project goals into a phased backlog with prerequisites, blockers, and deliverables using structured input guidelines.

What is phase-based task planning with concurrency groups?

Phase-based task planning with concurrency groups structures project milestones by grouping parallel tasks with explicit dependencies to maximize concurrent frontend and backend development safely.

How do I plan parallel frontend and backend development tasks?

Plan parallel frontend and backend development tasks by defining API contracts, data models, and UI component requirements early to enable separate concurrent workstreams without dependencies blocking execution.

Can I use project guidelines to create a backlog with task dependencies?

You can use project guidelines to create a structured backlog by assigning unique IDs, prerequisites, blockers, and delivery artifacts to each task, feeding directly into project management tools.

What's the best way to structure task dependencies and milestones?

The best way to structure task dependencies and milestones is to break work into phases with clear success criteria, assigning prerequisites and blockers to sequence tasks correctly for project delivery.

When do I need explicit prerequisites and blockers for my todos?

Explicit prerequisites and blockers are needed for todos when managing complex product development workflows requiring strict task sequencing and parallel work coordination to prevent execution risks.
