PRD to Issues
Break a PRD into independently-grabbable Linear issues using vertical slices (tracer bullets).
Process
1. Locate the PRD
Ask the user for the PRD Linear issue identifier (e.g. TEAM-123).
If the PRD is not already in your context window, fetch it using the Linear MCP get_issue tool.
2. Explore the codebase (optional)
If you have not already explored the codebase, do so to understand the current state of the code.
3. Draft vertical slices
Break the PRD into tracer bullet issues. Each issue is a thin vertical slice that cuts through ALL integration layers end-to-end, NOT a horizontal slice of one layer.

submit-pr
Submit implementation as a pull request. Runs tests, creates a PR with the Linear issue linked, and posts the PR URL as a comment on the Linear issue. Use when implementation is complete and user wants to open a PR, submit work, or create a pull request.
2index-knowledge
Generate hierarchical AGENTS.md + CLAUDE.md knowledge base for a codebase. Creates root + complexity-scored subdirectory documentation with both file types.
2tdd
Test-driven development with red-green-refactor loop. Use when user wants to build features or fix bugs using TDD, mentions "red-green-refactor", wants integration tests, or asks for test-first development.
1atdd
Outside-in TDD with double-loop (acceptance + unit). Use when user wants acceptance-test-driven development, outside-in TDD, London-school TDD, GOOS-style development, or wants to drive design from user-facing behavior inward.
1write-a-prd
Create a PRD through user interview, codebase exploration, and module design, then submit as a Linear issue. Use when user wants to write a PRD, create a product requirements document, or plan a new feature.
1start-issue
Kick off implementation of a Linear issue. Fetches the issue and its parent PRD, creates a git branch using Linear's suggested branch name, and presents a consolidated context summary ready for development. Use when starting work on a Linear issue, picking up a ticket, or when user says "start issue TEAM-123", "work on TEAM-123", or "pick up TEAM-123".
