PRD Analysis and Task Decomposition

Patterns for parsing PRDs and generating comprehensive task documentation.

Critical Success Criteria

Output quality is measured by how well agents can implement tasks WITHOUT needing to re-read the PRD. Each task must be self-contained with all necessary context embedded.

Structured Analysis (Chain of Thought)

Before generating tasks, think step-by-step:

1. Analyze PRD Structure - Identify features, tech requirements, implicit dependencies
2. Map Dependencies - What depends on what? Shared infrastructure needs?
3. Define Task Boundaries - Atomic, single responsibility, independently testable
4. Generate Implementation Details - Pseudo-code, file structures, library versions
5. Define Test Strategies - Acceptance criteria, unit/integration/E2E guidance
6. Self-Verify - All requirements covered? No circular deps? Valid ordering?
