SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Bootstrap artifacts (PRD, SAD, and optionally DOD) are often scattered across documents and teams. This skill analyzes those inputs and systematically converts them into a prioritized, dependency-aware sequence of epics that guide delivery.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Decomposes PRD capabilities into demo-scoped epics suitable for MVP demonstrations.
  • Builds a wave-based execution plan with dependency ordering and traceability tags to PRD/SAD/DOD sources.
  • Generates specs/project-plan.md and registers it for downstream orchestration.

Quick Start

Provide the PRD and SAD (and optional DOD) documents to generate the project plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn a PRD and SAD into an actionable development plan?▼

To turn a PRD and SAD into a development plan, this skill analyzes bootstrap artifacts and decomposes product capabilities into demo-scoped epics, producing a wave-based execution sequence with dependency ordering and traceability tags.

What is wave planning for epic decomposition?▼

Wave planning for epic decomposition is organizing a prioritized sequence of epics into execution waves, applying dependency-aware ordering to ensure tasks are structured logically for implementation and MVP demonstrations.

Do I need a DOD document to generate a project plan from PRD and SAD artifacts?▼

You do not need a DOD document to generate a project plan, as the skill accepts PRD and SAD as required inputs and processes the DOD optionally to enhance traceability and dependency contracts.

How do I map dependencies across PRD capabilities for MVP delivery?▼

To map dependencies across PRD capabilities, the skill normalizes bootstrap artifacts and builds a dependency graph, structuring epics into execution waves that sequence delivery based on cross-document dependency contracts.

What is the best way to sequence epics based on system design documents?▼

The best way to sequence epics based on system design documents is through wave decomposition, which applies dependency ordering and traceability tags to generate a structured project plan for downstream orchestration.

What are the limitations of automated project planning from bootstrap artifacts?▼

Automated project planning from bootstrap artifacts is limited to the post-system-design and pre-implementation phases, relying entirely on the completeness of input PRD and SAD documents to generate accurate dependency contracts and execution waves.
