Prd To Issues

PRD To Issues

Use this skill to make a PRD executable. The output should be ready to paste into GitHub issues or hand to a coding agent.

Workflow

1. Identify the smallest vertical slice that proves the product promise.
2. Split work by user-visible outcomes, not by technical layers.
3. Create issues with:
   • Title.
   • Goal.
   • User value.
   • Scope.
   • Acceptance criteria.
   • Suggested labels.
   • Dependencies.
   • Verification steps.
4. Put issues in build order.
5. Mark any issue that is too large and split it.

Output Format

Issue Rules

• Each issue should deliver visible progress.
• Avoid vague tasks like "improve UX" or "add backend".
• Keep the first issue small enough to start immediately.
• Include docs and launch tasks when the project is public-facing.
• Size S: under 2 hours. Size M: half day. Size L: full day or split further.
• P0: blocks the first slice. P1: needed for launch. P2: nice to have.

Milestone Grouping

Group issues into milestones when there is a natural release boundary:

• v0.1 (First Slice): The smallest set of issues that proves the product promise.
• v0.2 (Polish): Issues that improve quality, error handling, and edge cases.
• v1.0 (Launch): Docs, examples, install path, and public-facing issues.

Next Step

After building, run launch-readiness to audit the repository for README quality, install experience, trust signals, and conversion gaps before publishing.
