PRD to Issues

Break a PRD into independent GitHub issues, where each issue is a fully deliverable work item.

Process

1. Locate the PRD

Ask the user for the PRD GitHub issue number or URL.

If the PRD is not already in your context window, fetch it with: gh issue view <number> --comments

2. Explore the codebase (optional)

If you have not already explored the codebase, do so to understand the current state of the system.

3. Draft issues

Break the PRD into independent backend and frontend issues:

Backend issues first: fully implementable, complete, no dependencies on frontend.
Frontend issues second: fully implementable once backend is ready, each linked to its related backend issue.

Each issue must be autonomous and deliverable on its own. Do not create partial or dependent slices.

4. Discuss implementation before starting

For each issue, before coding, discuss:

Technologies and tools to use (backend and frontend)
Architecture, endpoints, schema (backend)
Layout, components, interactions (frontend)
Any important design decisions or trade-offs
Questions or uncertainties

Iterate discussion until everyone is aligned and the issue can be started with clarity.

5. Create GitHub issues

For each approved issue, create a GitHub issue using: gh issue create

Create backend issues first, then frontend issues. In each frontend issue, reference its related backend issue.

What to build

A concise description of this issue, describing the fully deliverable behavior. Reference specific sections of the parent PRD rather than duplicating content.

Acceptance criteria

Criterion 1
Criterion 2
Criterion 3 (Optional: tests recommended but not required)

Blocked by

None (issues are sequential: backend first, frontend second with reference to backend issue)

Related backend issue (for frontend only)

Notes / Implementation discussion

Summarize the agreed decisions from the pre-coding discussion, including technologies, architecture, layout, components, and any points of attention.

User stories addressed

Reference by number from the parent PRD:

User story 3
User story 7

Do NOT close or modify the parent PRD issue.
