2. Stories — Generate user stories with acceptance criteria
3. Scope — Confirm scope with the user
4. Hand off — Pass deliverables to /tech_lead

Usage

Workflow

Phase 1: Extract Requirements

Run /requirements_extractor on the provided document to get:

• Functional requirements
• Non-functional requirements
• Out-of-scope items
• Assumptions and open questions

Checkpoint: "Extracted N requirements. Proceeding to user stories..."

Phase 2: User Stories

Run /user_story_writer with the requirements to produce:

• User stories (As a... I want... So that...)
• Acceptance criteria per story
• Priority/order suggestion

Checkpoint: "Generated M user stories. Review scope below..."

Phase 3: Scope Confirmation

Present a short summary and ask:

• Any requirements missing or wrong?

• Ready to hand off to Tech Lead for design?

Phase 4: Handoff to Tech Lead

On approval, write outputs to output/{feature-slug}/requirements/:

"Ready for design. Handing off to Tech Lead.

Tech Lead will produce:
• API spec (OpenAPI)
• Schema / data model
• Implementation tickets

Invoking: /tech_lead {repo} {feature-slug}"
