PRD to Issues

The seam between a written spec and a tracked backlog. A PRD is one document; work is many issues with an order. This is the translation, and it is mechanical on purpose: the thinking already happened in the PRD.

What you produce

• One issue per requirement ID. PRD-FR-001 becomes exactly one issue, and the ID goes in the title. That ID is the only link back to the spec, and it is what makes a re-run recognise its own earlier output.
• Dependencies between them, taken from the PRD's own ordering and its stated prerequisites, not invented.
• A report of what was created, what was skipped, and what blocked.
