# Turn a PRD into Issues This skill takes a clarified PRD and turns it into a **small, sharp backlog** of vertically sliced GitHub issues. Each issue should be an independently grabbable “tracer bullet” that cuts through all relevant layers end‑to‑end, flushing out unknown unknowns as early as possible. ## When to Use Use this skill when the user: - Has a PRD or similar spec (possibly created via `/spec-writer`) and now wants concrete issues. - Wants to turn “destination” docs into a Kanban board of tasks. - Needs to break work down so multiple engineers or agents can work in parallel without stepping on each other. If there is no PRD yet or the requirements are fuzzy, suggest using `/grill-me` and `/spec-writer` first. ## Concepts - **Vertical slice / tracer bullet:** A thin, end‑to‑end piece of functionality that goes through all necessary layers (data, domain, API, UI, etc.), not just one layer in isolation. - **HITL issue:** Requires Human‑In‑The‑Loop decisions (design review, stakeholder sign‑off, risky refactor, etc.). - **AFK issue:** “Away‑From‑Keyboard” for the human; safe enough for an autonomous agent to implement and merge without human intervention. Prefer AFK slices where possible, but mark HITL clearly where human judgment is essential. ## Workflow You may compress or skip steps if the context already provides the answer (e.g., the PRD is already loaded and clearly scoped). 1. **Locate and understand the PRD** - Find the PRD from the conversation
