Slice

Use this skill when a work item is small enough to execute, has passed planning review, has explicit human approval, and its planning artifacts have been committed.

Responsibilities

1. Validate that the selected work item is ready for execution.
2. Ensure execution bootstrap prerequisites exist, including .skills/execution.json, the slice registry, and a durable approved planning checkpoint.
3. Bootstrap one execution slice for that work item.
4. Confirm the slice exists and is aligned with the repository's execution layout.
5. Hand off to guide-execution for brief.md and blueprint.md.

Preferred Input

• a work item ID from repository planning (for example, one created by breakdown)

Bootstrap Rules

• One executable work item should map to one slice.
