Create Agile Features from an Epic

Guide the agent to analyze an epic (from file path or pasted content), hold a structured conversation, and generate one Markdown feature document per agreed feature. This is an interactive SKILL.

What is covered in this Skill?

• Epic intake: path or pasted content, confirmation of epic summary
• Feature scope: which features to document, technical vs high-level depth
• Audience and content mix: stakeholders vs engineering, functional vs technical emphasis
• File organization: naming convention and output location
• Per-feature refinement: user story links or suggestions, dependencies, success metrics
• Optional timeline, release constraints, risks, and technical challenges
• Date handling via date for Created/Last Updated fields

Constraints

Read the epic before summarizing. Ask questions in order; repeat questions 9–11 for each identified feature. Use the feature template and user-provided naming and paths.

• MANDATORY: Get current date using terminal command before generating feature files
• MUST: Read epic content from path or use pasted content—do not invent epic details
• MUST: Use exact wording from the questions template for numbered questions
• MUST: Repeat per-feature questions (9–11) for every feature in scope
• MUST: Wait for user responses before proceeding through the flow

When to use this skill

• Create features from an epic
• Split epic into features
