What problem does it solve? Draft user stories often lack the detail needed for development: no testable acceptance criteria, no technical analysis, no sizing, and no shared understanding between stakeholders. This Skill transforms a rough Draft story into a Ready specification through a single structured refinement path, eliminating ambiguity before sprint planning. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Shared-Understanding Sync: Runs a blocking phase-0 alignment gate (via /capability-grill) covering goal, acceptance criteria, edge cases, dependencies, design, and risks before any section is authored. - Given-When-Then Acceptance Criteria: Expands requirements into testable scenarios, business rules, and edge cases with explicit human approval gates at every step. - Domain & Coupling Analysis: Optionally composes /process-map-subdomains and /process-map-contexts to classify the touched capability and record coupling risks in the story body. - Shift-Left Risk Classification: Writes a quality-model classification matrix into the story's Classification section via /capability-classify. - Use Case: A product owner has a backlog of Draft stories before sprint planning. Run the skill to auto-select the highest-priority Draft story, align on scope, produce acceptance criteria and sizing, and transition the issue to Ready in the PM tool. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to refine story #42 from Draft to Ready, or omit the story ID to refine the highest-priority Draft story in the backlog.
