What this skill does

Produces a complete epic definition following Atlassian agile guidance. An epic captures a large initiative that is too big for a single sprint and must be decomposed into user stories. This skill writes the epic statement, defines in-scope and out-of-scope boundaries, identifies success metrics, and drafts an initial story map to guide decomposition.

Reference: Atlassian — User stories with examples and a template

When to use it

  • User asks to "write an epic" or "define an initiative" for a feature area or product goal.
  • User has a large, multi-sprint requirement and needs to frame it before decomposing it into stories.
  • User wants to communicate a roadmap item to stakeholders before stories are written.
  • User is decomposing an epic and needs the parent definition to stay aligned.
