PRD to Tickets

Break a PRD into independently-grabbable Linear tickets using vertical slices (tracer bullets).

Process

1. Locate the PRD

Ask where the PRD lives (doc URL, markdown file path, GitHub issue/PR, Notion page, or pasted text).

If the PRD is not in context, fetch or read it first.

2. Explore the codebase (optional)

If you have not already explored the codebase, do so to understand current constraints and integration points.

3. Draft vertical slices

Break the PRD into tracer-bullet slices. Each slice should be a thin end-to-end path through all layers, not a horizontal layer-only task.
