Work Breakdown

Analyze the provided features/issues and produce a breakdown of work suitable for parallel or sequential execution.

Process

  1. Gather context — Fetch issue details, read relevant source code using the codebase-exploration skill and the research_codebase skill (for more detailed analysis - when required)
  2. Identify work units — Break input into discrete, independently deliverable units - these units of work should be independently verifiable, either manually or using automated testing.
  3. Map dependencies — Which units depend on others? What must be sequenced vs parallelized?
  4. Assess risks — Flag units of work that touch the same file, projects/repositories, entities, or layers (merge conflict risk, network layer, data layer, etc.) across multiple systems
  5. Recommend execution order — Suggest which units can run in parallel and which should be sequenced

Output

Present a concise breakdown to the user:

  • List of work units with one-line descriptions
  • Dependency graph (which blocks which) - this should be a minimal visual representation
  • Risk flags
  • Recommended implementation strategy
