ab-create-roadmap

name	ab-create-roadmap
description	Turn a larger idea into a dependency-ordered roadmap of tasks — the layer above create-task. Use when the work is several distinct tasks with real ordering between them (schema before API before UI), and you want the whole task graph drawn before implementing. Producer only; ab-start-roadmap executes it.

This skill runs the AB Method create-roadmap workflow.

Follow the workflow defined in .ab-method/core/create-roadmap.md exactly — it contains the decomposition grill, the roadmap.md format, the dependency-graph rules, and the per-task planning-prompt process.

Before doing anything, check .ab-method/structure/index.yaml. It defines where roadmaps and tasks are stored and how they reference each other (the relationships section). Paths are user-configurable; never hardcode them.

Key points: grill the idea once to draw the task DAG (coarse tasks, no missions); write docs/roadmaps/<name>/roadmap.md as the roadmap-level source of truth; hand back a /create-task prompt per task in dependency order (foundational first), recommending a fresh session each and warning about context bloat if planning inline. Do not execute — ab-start-roadmap does that. ab-create-task is roadmap-aware and keeps roadmap.md in sync automatically.
