devclarityai Use this template to turn a user story into a concrete plan, skeletons, and tests.
INPUTS
- Ticket - the user story or ticket to implement
- (optional) Non-functional requirements
- (optional) Acceptance criteria
- (optional) Code - existing code context
INSTRUCTIONS
- Extract goals, actors, and constraints from the ticket.
- Make explicit assumptions and edge cases.
- Produce a step-by-step plan across affected layers:
- Frontend (web/mobile applications)
- APIs (backend services)
- Integrations (messaging, external services)
- Data (databases, data warehouses, ETL)
- Authentication/authorization systems
- Provide key code skeletons and interface contracts.
- Define tests to add (unit, integration, e2e).
- Include rollout, feature flag, and observability plan.
- Keep lines ≤80 chars.
