Level 1: tech-spec + epic/stories. author: BMad instructions: 'bmad/bmm/workflows/2-plan-workflows/tech-spec/instructions.md' web_bundle_files: - 'bmad/bmm/workflows/2-plan-workflows/tech-spec/instructions.md' - >- bmad/bmm/workflows/2-plan-workflows/tech-spec/instructions-level0-story.md - >- bmad/bmm/workflows/2-plan-workflows/tech-spec/instructions-level1-stories.md - 'bmad/bmm/workflows/2-plan-workflows/tech-spec/tech-spec-template.md' - >- bmad/bmm/workflows/2-plan-workflows/tech-spec/user-story-template.md - 'bmad/bmm/workflows/2-plan-workflows/tech-spec/epics-template.md' - 'bmad/core/tasks/workflow.xml' - 'bmad/core/tasks/adv-elicit.xml' - 'bmad/core/tasks/adv-elicit-methods.csv' ]]> The workflow execution engine is governed by: bmad/core/tasks/workflow.xml You MUST have already loaded and processed: {installed_path}/workflow.yaml Communicate all responses in {communication_language} and language MUST be tailored to {user_skill_level} Generate all documents in {document_output_language} This is for Level 0-1 projects - tech-spec with context-rich story generation Level 0: tech-spec + single user story | Level 1: tech-spec + epic/stories LIVING DOCUMENT: Write to tech-spec.md continuously as you discover - never wait until the end CONTEXT IS KING: Gather ALL available context before generating specs DOCUMENT OUTPUT: Technical, precise, definitive. Specific versions only. User skill level ({user_skill_level}) affects conversation style ONLY, not document content. Input documents specified in workflow.yaml input_file_patterns - workflow engine handles fuzzy matching, whole vs sharded document discovery automatically Check if {output_folder}/bmm-workflow-status.yaml exists No workflow status file found. Tech-spec workflow can run standalone or as part of BMM workflow path. **Recommended:** Run `workflow-init` first for project context tracking and workflow sequencing. **Quick Start:** Continue in standalone mode - perfect for rapid prototyping and quick changes! Continue in standalone mode or exit to run workflow-init? (continue/exit) Set standalone_mode = true Great! Let's quickly configure your project... What level is this project? **Level 0** - Single atomic change (bug fix, small isolated feature, single file change) โ†’ Generates: 1 tech-spec + 1 story โ†’ Example: "Fix login validation bug" or "Add email field to user form" **Level 1** - Coherent feature (multiple related changes, small feature set) โ†’ Generates: 1 tech-spec + 1 epic + 2-3 stories โ†’ Example: "Add OAuth integration" or "Build user profile page" Enter **0** or **1**: Capture user response as project_level (0 or 1) Validate: If not 0 or 1, ask again Is this a **greenfield** (new/empty codebase) or **brownfield** (existing codebase) project? **Greenfield** - Starting fresh, no existing code **Brownfield** - Adding to or modifying existing code Enter **greenfield** or **brownfield**: Capture user response as field_type (greenfield or brownfield) Validate: If not greenfield or brownfield, ask again Perfect! Running as: - **Project Level:** {{project_level}} - **Field Type:** {{field_type}} - **Mode:** Standalone (no status file tracking) Let's build your tech-spec! Exit workflow Load the FULL file: {output_folder}/bmm-workflow-status.yaml Parse workflow_status section Check status of "tech-spec" workflow Get project_level from YAML metadata Get field_type from YAML metadata (greenfield or brownfield) Find first non-completed workflow (next expected workflow) **Incorrect Workflow for Level {{project_level}}** Tech-spec is for Level 0-1 projects. Level 2-4 should use PRD workflow. **Correct workflow:** `create-prd` (PM agent) Exit and redirect to prd โš ๏ธ Tech-spec already completed: {{tech-spec status}} Re-running will overwrite the existing tech-spec. Continue? (y/n) Exiting. Use workflow-status to see your next step. Exit workflow โš ๏ธ Next expected workflow: {{next_workflow}}. Tech-spec is out of sequence. Continue with tech-spec anyway? (y/n) Exiting. Run {{next_workflow}} instead. Exit workflow Set standalone_mode = false Welcome {user_name} warmly and explain what we're about to do: "I'm going to gather all available context about your project before we dive into the technical spec. This includes: - Any existing documentation (product briefs, research) - Brownfield codebase analysis (if applicable) - Your project's tech stack and dependencies - Existing code patterns and structure This ensures the tech-spec is grounded in reality and gives developers everything they need." **PHASE 1: Load Existing Documents** Search for and load (using dual-strategy: whole first, then sharded): 1. **Product Brief:** - Search pattern: {output*folder}/\_brief*.md - Sharded: {output*folder}/\_brief*/index.md - If found: Load completely and extract key context 2. **Research Documents:** - Search pattern: {output*folder}/\_research*.md - Sharded: {output*folder}/\_research*/index.md - If found: Load completely and extract insights 3. **Document-Project Output (CRITICAL for brownfield):** - Always check: {output_folder}/docs/index.md - If found: This is the brownfield codebase map - load ALL shards! - Extract: File structure, key modules, existing patterns, naming conventions Create a summary of what was found: - List of loaded documents - Key insights from each - Brownfield vs greenfield determination **PHASE 2: Detect Project Type from Setup Files** Search for project setup files in : **Node.js/JavaScript:** - package.json โ†’ Parse for framework, dependencies, scripts **Python:** - requirements.txt โ†’ Parse for packages - pyproject.toml โ†’ Parse for modern Python projects - Pipfile โ†’ Parse for pipenv projects **Ruby:** - Gemfile โ†’ Parse for gems and versions **Java:** - pom.xml โ†’ Parse for Maven dependencies - build.gradle โ†’ Parse for Gradle dependencies **Go:** - go.mod โ†’ Parse for modules **Rust:** - Cargo.toml โ†’ Parse for crates **PHP:** - composer.json โ†’ Parse for packages If setup file found, extract: 1. Framework name and EXACT version (e.g., "React 18.2.0", "Django 4.2.1") 2. All production dependencies with versions 3. Dev dependencies and tools (TypeScript, Jest, ESLint, pytest, etc.) 4. Available scripts (npm run test, npm run build, etc.) 5. Project type indicators (is it an API? Web app? CLI tool?) 6. **Test framework** (Jest, pytest, RSpec, JUnit, Mocha, etc.) **Check for Outdated Dependencies:** Use WebSearch to find current recommended version If package.json shows "react": "16.14.0" (from 2020): Note both current version AND migration complexity in stack summary **For Greenfield Projects:** Use WebSearch for current best practices AND starter templates **RECOMMEND STARTER TEMPLATES:** Look for official or well-maintained starter templates: - React: Create React App, Vite, Next.js starter - Vue: create-vue, Nuxt starter - Python: cookiecutter templates, FastAPI template - Node.js: express-generator, NestJS CLI - Ruby: Rails new, Sinatra template - Go: go-blueprint, standard project layout Benefits of starters: - โœ… Modern best practices baked in - โœ… Proper project structure - โœ… Build tooling configured - โœ… Testing framework set up - โœ… Linting/formatting included - โœ… Faster time to first feature **Present recommendations to user:** "I found these starter templates for {{framework}}: 1. {{official_template}} - Official, well-maintained 2. {{community_template}} - Popular community template These provide {{benefits}}. Would you like to use one? (yes/no/show-me-more)" Capture user preference on starter template If yes, include starter setup in implementation stack Store this as {{project_stack_summary}} **PHASE 3: Brownfield Codebase Reconnaissance** (if applicable) Analyze the existing project structure: 1. **Directory Structure:** - Identify main code directories (src/, lib/, app/, components/, services/) - Note organization patterns (feature-based, layer-based, domain-driven) - Identify test directories and patterns 2. **Code Patterns:** - Look for dominant patterns (class-based, functional, MVC, microservices) - Identify naming conventions (camelCase, snake_case, PascalCase) - Note file organization patterns 3. **Key Modules/Services:** - Identify major modules or services already in place - Note entry points (main.js, app.py, index.ts) - Document important utilities or shared code 4. **Testing Patterns & Standards (CRITICAL):** - Identify test framework in use (from package.json/requirements.txt) - Note test file naming patterns (.test.js, \_test.py, .spec.ts, Test.java) - Document test organization (tests/, **tests**, spec/, test/) - Look for test configuration files (jest.config.js, pytest.ini, .rspec) - Check for coverage requirements (in CI config, test scripts) - Identify mocking/stubbing libraries (jest.mock, unittest.mock, sinon) - Note assertion styles (expect, assert, should) 5. **Code Style & Conventions (MUST CONFORM):** - Check for linter config (.eslintrc, .pylintrc, rubocop.yml) - Check for formatter config (.prettierrc, .black, .editorconfig) - Identify code style: - Semicolons: yes/no (JavaScript/TypeScript) - Quotes: single/double - Indentation: spaces/tabs, size - Line length limits - Import/export patterns (named vs default, organization) - Error handling patterns (try/catch, Result types, error classes) - Logging patterns (console, winston, logging module, specific formats) - Documentation style (JSDoc, docstrings, YARD, JavaDoc) Store this as {{existing_structure_summary}} **CRITICAL: Confirm Conventions with User** I've detected these conventions in your codebase: **Code Style:** {{detected_code_style}} **Test Patterns:** {{detected_test_patterns}} **File Organization:** {{detected_file_organization}} Should I follow these existing conventions for the new code? Enter **yes** to conform to existing patterns, or **no** if you want to establish new standards: Capture user response as conform_to_conventions (yes/no) What conventions would you like to use instead? (Or should I suggest modern best practices?) Capture new conventions or use WebSearch for current best practices Store confirmed conventions as {{existing_conventions}} Note: Greenfield project - no existing code to analyze Set {{existing_structure_summary}} = "Greenfield project - new codebase" **PHASE 4: Synthesize Context Summary** Create {{loaded_documents_summary}} that includes: - Documents found and loaded - Brownfield vs greenfield status - Tech stack detected (or "To be determined" if greenfield) - Existing patterns identified (or "None - greenfield" if applicable) Present this summary to {user_name} conversationally: "Here's what I found about your project: **Documents Available:** [List what was found] **Project Type:** [Brownfield with X framework Y version OR Greenfield - new project] **Existing Stack:** [Framework and dependencies OR "To be determined"] **Code Structure:** [Existing patterns OR "New codebase"] This gives me a solid foundation for creating a context-rich tech spec!" loaded_documents_summary project_stack_summary existing_structure_summary Now engage in natural conversation to understand what needs to be built. Adapt questioning based on project_level: **Level 0: Atomic Change Discovery** Engage warmly and get specific details: "Let's talk about this change. I need to understand it deeply so the tech-spec gives developers everything they need." **Core Questions (adapt naturally, don't interrogate):** 1. "What problem are you solving?" - Listen for: Bug fix, missing feature, technical debt, improvement - Capture as {{change_type}} 2. "Where in the codebase should this live?" - If brownfield: "I see you have [existing modules]. Does this fit in any of those?" - If greenfield: "Let's figure out the right structure for this." - Capture affected areas 3. "Are there existing patterns or similar code I should follow?" - Look for consistency requirements - Identify reference implementations 4. "What's the expected behavior after this change?" - Get specific success criteria - Understand edge cases 5. "Any constraints or gotchas I should know about?" - Technical limitations - Dependencies on other systems - Performance requirements **Discovery Goals:** - Understand the WHY (problem) - Understand the WHAT (solution) - Understand the WHERE (location in code) - Understand the HOW (approach and patterns) Synthesize into clear problem statement and solution overview. **Level 1: Feature Discovery** Engage in deeper feature exploration: "This is a Level 1 feature - coherent but focused. Let's explore what you're building." **Core Questions (natural conversation):** 1. "What user need are you addressing?" - Get to the core value - Understand the user's pain point 2. "How should this integrate with existing code?" - If brownfield: "I saw [existing features]. How does this relate?" - Identify integration points - Note dependencies 3. "Can you point me to similar features I can reference for patterns?" - Get example implementations - Understand established patterns 4. "What's IN scope vs OUT of scope for this feature?" - Define clear boundaries - Identify MVP vs future enhancements - Keep it focused (remind: Level 1 = 2-3 stories max) 5. "Are there dependencies on other systems or services?" - External APIs - Databases - Third-party libraries 6. "What does success look like?" - Measurable outcomes - User-facing impact - Technical validation **Discovery Goals:** - Feature purpose and value - Integration strategy - Scope boundaries - Success criteria - Dependencies Synthesize into comprehensive feature description. problem_statement solution_overview change_type scope_in scope_out ALL TECHNICAL DECISIONS MUST BE DEFINITIVE - NO AMBIGUITY ALLOWED Use existing stack info to make SPECIFIC decisions Reference brownfield code to guide implementation Initialize tech-spec.md with the rich template **Generate Context Section (already captured):** These template variables are already populated from Step 1: - {{loaded_documents_summary}} - {{project_stack_summary}} - {{existing_structure_summary}} Just save them to the file. loaded_documents_summary project_stack_summary existing_structure_summary **Generate The Change Section:** Already captured from Step 2: - {{problem_statement}} - {{solution_overview}} - {{scope_in}} - {{scope_out}} Save to file. problem_statement solution_overview scope_in scope_out **Generate Implementation Details:** Now make DEFINITIVE technical decisions using all the context gathered. **Source Tree Changes - BE SPECIFIC:** Bad (NEVER do this): - "Update some files in the services folder" - "Add tests somewhere" Good (ALWAYS do this): - "src/services/UserService.ts - MODIFY - Add validateEmail() method at line 45" - "src/routes/api/users.ts - MODIFY - Add POST /users/validate endpoint" - "tests/services/UserService.test.ts - CREATE - Test suite for email validation" Include: - Exact file paths - Action: CREATE, MODIFY, DELETE - Specific what changes (methods, classes, endpoints, components) **Use brownfield context:** - If modifying existing files, reference current structure - Follow existing naming patterns - Place new code logically based on current organization source_tree_changes **Technical Approach - BE DEFINITIVE:** Bad (ambiguous): - "Use a logging library like winston or pino" - "Use Python 2 or 3" - "Set up some kind of validation" Good (definitive): - "Use winston v3.8.2 (already in package.json) for logging" - "Implement using Python 3.11 as specified in pyproject.toml" - "Use Joi v17.9.0 for request validation following pattern in UserController.ts" **Use detected stack:** - Reference exact versions from package.json/requirements.txt - Specify frameworks already in use - Make decisions based on what's already there **For greenfield:** - Make definitive choices and justify them - Specify exact versions - No "or" statements allowed technical_approach **Existing Patterns to Follow:** Document patterns from the existing codebase: - Class structure patterns - Function naming conventions - Error handling approach - Testing patterns - Documentation style Example: "Follow the service pattern established in UserService.ts: - Export class with constructor injection - Use async/await for all asynchronous operations - Throw ServiceError with error codes - Include JSDoc comments for all public methods" "Greenfield project - establishing new patterns: - [Define the patterns to establish]" existing_patterns **Integration Points:** Identify how this change connects: - Internal modules it depends on - External APIs or services - Database interactions - Event emitters/listeners - State management Be specific about interfaces and contracts. integration_points **Development Context:** **Relevant Existing Code:** Reference specific files or code sections developers should review: - "See UserService.ts lines 120-150 for similar validation pattern" - "Reference AuthMiddleware.ts for authentication approach" - "Follow error handling in PaymentService.ts" **Framework/Libraries:** List with EXACT versions from detected stack: - Express 4.18.2 (web framework) - winston 3.8.2 (logging) - Joi 17.9.0 (validation) - TypeScript 5.1.6 (language) **Internal Modules:** List internal dependencies: - @/services/UserService - @/middleware/auth - @/utils/validation **Configuration Changes:** Any config files to update: - Update .env with new SMTP settings - Add validation schema to config/schemas.ts - Update package.json scripts if needed existing_code_references framework_dependencies internal_dependencies configuration_changes existing_conventions Set {{existing_conventions}} = "Greenfield project - establishing new conventions per modern best practices" existing_conventions **Implementation Stack:** Comprehensive stack with versions: - Runtime: Node.js 20.x - Framework: Express 4.18.2 - Language: TypeScript 5.1.6 - Testing: Jest 29.5.0 - Linting: ESLint 8.42.0 - Validation: Joi 17.9.0 All from detected project setup!

Now generate stories that reference the rich tech-spec context Invoke {installed_path}/instructions-level0-story.md to generate single user story Story will leverage tech-spec.md as primary context Developers can skip story-context workflow since tech-spec is comprehensive Invoke {installed_path}/instructions-level1-stories.md to generate epic and stories Stories will reference tech-spec.md for all technical details Epic provides organization, tech-spec provides implementation context **โœ… Tech-Spec Complete, {user_name}!** **Deliverables Created:** - โœ… **tech-spec.md** - Context-rich technical specification - Includes: brownfield analysis, framework details, existing patterns - โœ… **story-{slug}.md** - Implementation-ready user story - References tech-spec as primary context - โœ… **tech-spec.md** - Context-rich technical specification - โœ… **epics.md** - Epic and story organization - โœ… **story-{epic-slug}-1.md** - First story - โœ… **story-{epic-slug}-2.md** - Second story {{#if story_3}} - โœ… **story-{epic-slug}-3.md** - Third story {{/if}} **What Makes This Tech-Spec Special:** The tech-spec is comprehensive enough to serve as the primary context document: - โœจ Brownfield codebase analysis (if applicable) - โœจ Exact framework and library versions from your project - โœจ Existing patterns and code references - โœจ Specific file paths and integration points - โœจ Complete developer resources **Next Steps:** **For Single Story (Level 0):** **Option A - With Story Context (for complex changes):** 1. Ask SM agent to run `create-story-context` for the story - This generates additional XML context if needed 2. Then ask DEV agent to run `dev-story` to implement **Option B - Direct to Dev (most Level 0):** 1. Ask DEV agent to run `dev-story` directly - Tech-spec provides all the context needed! - Story is ready to implement ๐Ÿ’ก **Tip:** Most Level 0 changes don't need separate story context since tech-spec is comprehensive! **For Multiple Stories (Level 1):** **Recommended: Story-by-Story Approach** For the **first story** ({{first_story_name}}): **Option A - With Story Context (recommended for first story):** 1. Ask SM agent to run `create-story-context` for story 1 - Generates focused context for this specific story 2. Then ask DEV agent to run `dev-story` to implement story 1 **Option B - Direct to Dev:** 1. Ask DEV agent to run `dev-story` for story 1 - Tech-spec has most context needed After completing story 1, repeat for stories 2 and 3. **Alternative: Sprint Planning Approach** - If managing multiple stories as a sprint, ask SM agent to run `sprint-planning` - This organizes all stories for coordinated implementation **Your Tech-Spec:** - ๐Ÿ“„ Saved to: `{output_folder}/tech-spec.md` - Contains: All context, decisions, patterns, and implementation guidance - Ready for: Direct development or story context generation The tech-spec is your single source of truth! ๐Ÿš€ ]]> This generates a single user story for Level 0 atomic changes Level 0 = single file change, bug fix, or small isolated task This workflow runs AFTER tech-spec.md has been completed Output format MUST match create-story template for compatibility with story-context and dev-story workflows Read the completed tech-spec.md file from {output_folder}/tech-spec.md Load bmm-workflow-status.yaml from {output_folder}/bmm-workflow-status.yaml (if exists) Extract dev_ephemeral_location from config (where stories are stored) Extract from the ENHANCED tech-spec structure: - Problem statement from "The Change โ†’ Problem Statement" section - Solution overview from "The Change โ†’ Proposed Solution" section - Scope from "The Change โ†’ Scope" section - Source tree from "Implementation Details โ†’ Source Tree Changes" section - Time estimate from "Implementation Guide โ†’ Implementation Steps" section - Acceptance criteria from "Implementation Guide โ†’ Acceptance Criteria" section - Framework dependencies from "Development Context โ†’ Framework/Libraries" section - Existing code references from "Development Context โ†’ Relevant Existing Code" section - File paths from "Developer Resources โ†’ File Paths Reference" section - Key code locations from "Developer Resources โ†’ Key Code Locations" section - Testing locations from "Developer Resources โ†’ Testing Locations" section Derive a short URL-friendly slug from the feature/change name Max slug length: 3-5 words, kebab-case format - "Migrate JS Library Icons" โ†’ "icon-migration" - "Fix Login Validation Bug" โ†’ "login-fix" - "Add OAuth Integration" โ†’ "oauth-integration" Set story_filename = "story-{slug}.md" Set story_path = "{dev_ephemeral_location}/story-{slug}.md" Create 1 story that describes the technical change as a deliverable Story MUST use create-story template format for compatibility **Story Point Estimation:** - 1 point = < 1 day (2-4 hours) - 2 points = 1-2 days - 3 points = 2-3 days - 5 points = 3-5 days (if this high, question if truly Level 0) **Story Title Best Practices:** - Use active, user-focused language - Describe WHAT is delivered, not HOW - Good: "Icon Migration to Internal CDN" - Bad: "Run curl commands to download PNGs" **Story Description Format:** - As a [role] (developer, user, admin, etc.) - I want [capability/change] - So that [benefit/value] **Acceptance Criteria:** - Extract from tech-spec "Testing Approach" section - Must be specific, measurable, and testable - Include performance criteria if specified **Tasks/Subtasks:** - Map directly to tech-spec "Implementation Guide" tasks - Use checkboxes for tracking - Reference AC numbers: (AC: #1), (AC: #2) - Include explicit testing subtasks **Dev Notes:** - Extract technical constraints from tech-spec - Include file paths from "Developer Resources โ†’ File Paths Reference" - Include existing code references from "Development Context โ†’ Relevant Existing Code" - Reference architecture patterns if applicable - Cite tech-spec sections for implementation details - Note dependencies (internal and external) **NEW: Comprehensive Context** Since tech-spec is now context-rich, populate all new template fields: - dependencies: Extract from "Development Context" and "Implementation Details โ†’ Integration Points" - existing_code_references: Extract from "Development Context โ†’ Relevant Existing Code" and "Developer Resources โ†’ Key Code Locations" Initialize story file using user_story_template story_title role capability benefit acceptance_criteria tasks_subtasks technical_summary files_to_modify test_locations story_points time_estimate dependencies existing_code_references architecture_references mode: update action: complete_workflow workflow_name: tech-spec โœ… Tech-spec complete!

Existing code references from "Development Context โ†’ Relevant Existing Code" - File paths from "Developer Resources โ†’ File Paths Reference" - Key code locations from "Developer Resources โ†’ Key Code Locations" - Testing locations from "Developer Resources โ†’ Testing Locations" - Acceptance criteria from "Implementation Guide โ†’ Acceptance Criteria" Create 1 epic that represents the entire feature Epic title should be user-facing value statement Epic goal should describe why this matters to users **Epic Best Practices:** - Title format: User-focused outcome (not implementation detail) - Good: "JS Library Icon Reliability" - Bad: "Update recommendedLibraries.ts file" - Scope: Clearly define what's included/excluded - Success criteria: Measurable outcomes that define "done" **Epic:** JS Library Icon Reliability **Goal:** Eliminate external dependencies for JS library icons to ensure consistent, reliable display and improve application performance. **Scope:** Migrate all 14 recommended JS library icons from third-party CDN URLs (GitHub, jsDelivr) to internal static asset hosting. **Success Criteria:** - All library icons load from internal paths - Zero external requests for library icons - Icons load 50-200ms faster than baseline - No broken icons in production Derive epic slug from epic title (kebab-case, 2-3 words max) - "JS Library Icon Reliability" โ†’ "icon-reliability" - "OAuth Integration" โ†’ "oauth-integration" - "Admin Dashboard" โ†’ "admin-dashboard" Initialize epics.md summary document using epics_template Also capture project_level for the epic template project_level epic_title epic_slug epic_goal epic_scope epic_success_criteria epic_dependencies Level 1 should have 2-3 stories maximum - prefer longer stories over more stories Analyze tech spec implementation tasks and time estimates Group related tasks into logical story boundaries **Story Count Decision Matrix:** **2 Stories (preferred for most Level 1):** - Use when: Feature has clear build/verify split - Example: Story 1 = Build feature, Story 2 = Test and deploy - Typical points: 3-5 points per story **3 Stories (only if necessary):** - Use when: Feature has distinct setup, build, verify phases - Example: Story 1 = Setup, Story 2 = Core implementation, Story 3 = Integration and testing - Typical points: 2-3 points per story **Never exceed 3 stories for Level 1:** - If more needed, consider if project should be Level 2 - Better to have longer stories (5 points) than more stories (5x 1-point stories) Determine story_count = 2 or 3 based on tech spec complexity For each story (2-3 total), generate separate story file Story filename format: "story-{epic_slug}-{n}.md" where n = 1, 2, or 3 **Story Generation Guidelines:** - Each story = multiple implementation tasks from tech spec - Story title format: User-focused deliverable (not implementation steps) - Include technical acceptance criteria from tech spec tasks - Link back to tech spec sections for implementation details **CRITICAL: Acceptance Criteria Must Be:** 1. **Numbered** - AC #1, AC #2, AC #3, etc. 2. **Specific** - No vague statements like "works well" or "is fast" 3. **Testable** - Can be verified objectively 4. **Complete** - Covers all success conditions 5. **Independent** - Each AC tests one thing 6. **Format**: Use Given/When/Then when applicable **Good AC Examples:** โœ… AC #1: Given a valid email address, when user submits the form, then the account is created and user receives a confirmation email within 30 seconds โœ… AC #2: Given an invalid email format, when user submits, then form displays "Invalid email format" error message โœ… AC #3: All unit tests in UserService.test.ts pass with 100% coverage **Bad AC Examples:** โŒ "User can create account" (too vague) โŒ "System performs well" (not measurable) โŒ "Works correctly" (not specific) **Story Point Estimation:** - 1 point = < 1 day (2-4 hours) - 2 points = 1-2 days - 3 points = 2-3 days - 5 points = 3-5 days **Level 1 Typical Totals:** - Total story points: 5-10 points - 2 stories: 3-5 points each - 3 stories: 2-3 points each - If total > 15 points, consider if this should be Level 2 **Story Structure (MUST match create-story format):** - Status: Draft - Story: As a [role], I want [capability], so that [benefit] - Acceptance Criteria: Numbered list from tech spec - Tasks / Subtasks: Checkboxes mapped to tech spec tasks (AC: #n references) - Dev Notes: Technical summary, project structure notes, references - Dev Agent Record: Empty sections (tech-spec provides context) **NEW: Comprehensive Context Fields** Since tech-spec is context-rich, populate ALL template fields: - dependencies: Extract from tech-spec "Development Context โ†’ Dependencies" and "Integration Points" - existing_code_references: Extract from "Development Context โ†’ Relevant Existing Code" and "Developer Resources โ†’ Key Code Locations" Set story_path_{n} = "{dev_ephemeral_location}/story-{epic_slug}-{n}.md" Create story file from user_story_template with the following content: - story_title: User-focused deliverable title - role: User role (e.g., developer, user, admin) - capability: What they want to do - benefit: Why it matters - acceptance_criteria: Specific, measurable criteria from tech spec - tasks_subtasks: Implementation tasks with AC references - technical_summary: High-level approach, key decisions - files_to_modify: List of files that will change (from tech-spec "Developer Resources โ†’ File Paths Reference") - test_locations: Where tests will be added (from tech-spec "Developer Resources โ†’ Testing Locations") - story_points: Estimated effort (1/2/3/5) - time_estimate: Days/hours estimate - dependencies: Internal/external dependencies (from tech-spec "Development Context" and "Integration Points") - existing_code_references: Code to reference (from tech-spec "Development Context โ†’ Relevant Existing Code" and "Key Code Locations") - architecture_references: Links to tech-spec.md sections Generate exactly {story_count} story files (2 or 3 based on Step 3 decision) Stories MUST be ordered so earlier stories don't depend on later ones Each story must have CLEAR, TESTABLE acceptance criteria Analyze dependencies between stories: **Dependency Rules:** 1. Infrastructure/setup โ†’ Feature implementation โ†’ Testing/polish 2. Database changes โ†’ API changes โ†’ UI changes 3. Backend services โ†’ Frontend components 4.

After Story 1 Complete:** - Repeat for story-{epic_slug}-2.md - Reference completed story 1 in your work **3. After Story 2 Complete:** {{#if story_3}} - Repeat for story-{epic_slug}-3.md {{/if}} - Level 1 feature complete! **Option B - Generate Additional Context (optional):** Only needed for extremely complex multi-story dependencies: 1. Load SM agent: `bmad/bmm/agents/sm.md` 2. Run `story-context` workflow for complex stories 3. Then load DEV agent and run `dev-story` **Progress Tracking:** - All decisions logged in: `bmm-workflow-status.yaml` - Next action clearly identified Ready to proceed? Choose your path: 1. Go directly to dev-story for story 1 (RECOMMENDED - tech-spec has all context) 2. Generate additional story context first (for complex dependencies) 3.
