Plan Tickets

Normalize inputs, classify each work item, draft tickets in a standard structure. Default mode: draft-only.

HARD-GATE

• Do not create tracker issues unless explicitly asked.
• Do not assume tracker credentials, project fields, sprint IDs, or status behavior.
• If only tickets are requested, return Markdown drafts.

Core Process

1. Normalize initiative: theme, project, draft vs. create mode, default bucket, constraints.

2. Classify each ticket: type, area, execution order, dependency level, target bucket using the classification rules below.

3. Apply sprint placement: foundation/api before client, exclude external confirmations, place follow-up tickets in ready-to-refine.

4. Apply title prefixes: BE | (backend), FE | (frontend), Mobile | (mobile).

5. Draft each ticket with five sections: Summary, Background, Acceptance Criteria, Dependencies, Technical Notes.

6. Output:

   Draft-only (default): Markdown tickets with classification line and five-section structure plus a readiness checklist.

   Create-in-tracker: After explicit approval, create issues using the tracker API. Validate required fields; do not set status on create. Confirm with one issue before bulk creation.

Classification Rules

[type: Story|Task] [area: backend|web|mobile|cross-platform|external] [execution_order: foundation|api|client|follow-up] [dependency_level: unblocked|blocked] [target_bucket: ready-to-refine|next-dev-sprint|later]

Optional: coordination_need, external_dependency, urgency.
