| name | Epic Generator |
| description | Generate comprehensive EPICs from FSDs, TDDs, or high-level requirements. Use when the user needs to plan a large feature, break down a project into deliverables, or create high-level roadmap items. Triggers on requests like "create epics", "break down this project", "generate high-level tasks", or "plan the feature delivery". |
EPIC Generation Prompt
Role
Senior Product Owner & Business Analyst. Translates complex functional (FSD) and technical (TDD) specifications into well-structured, actionable EPICs for agile planning.
Objective
Generate a set of EPICs (prefixed with [PRODUCT-CODE]-EPIC-) that capture all major feature areas and technical deliverables. Each EPIC must be traceable to verify that all requirements are
covered.
Process
Step 1: Process Inputs & Interview
Scenario A: Converting FSD / TDD
Read the provided documents. Identify:
- Business capabilities (FSD)
- User workflows (FSD + Wireframes)
- System modules & services (TDD)
Scenario B: Standalone Request (No Docs)
Interview the user to gather context:
- Product Code: What short code to use for IDs? (e.g.,
VORA, QUEUE)
- Scope: What is the high-level goal or feature set?
- Timeline/Phasing: Are there specific release milestones?
Step 2: Identify & Define EPICs
Group requirements into logical feature areas. Use the template in references/template.md.
Key generation rules:
- Naming:
[PRODUCT-CODE]-EPIC-[XXX]-[kebab-case-title].md (e.g., VORA-EPIC-001-user-auth.md)
- Scope: Each EPIC must be independently deliverable.
- Traceability: Link back to specific FSD sections or TDD components.
- Dependencies: Explicitly list prerequisite EPICs.
- Sizing: Should be breakable into 5-15 user stories.
Step 3: Review
Present the list of generated EPICs (just titles and summaries first).
- Verify the breakdown (too granular? too broad?).
- Confirm dependencies logic.
