PRD to Plan

Break a PRD into a phased implementation plan using vertical slices (tracer bullets). Output is a Markdown file in ./plans/.

Process

1. Confirm the PRD is in context

The PRD should already be in the conversation. If it isn't, ask the user to paste it or point you to the file.

2. Explore the codebase

If you have not already explored the codebase, do so to understand the current architecture, existing patterns, and integration layers. Reference .codemap/MAP.md (if present) for module boundaries when defining tracer-bullet slices — vertical slices should respect the existing module structure where possible.

3. Identify durable architectural decisions

Before slicing, identify high-level decisions that are unlikely to change throughout implementation:

  • Route structures / URL patterns
