Convert ISO spec requirements (StR, FR, NFR) into a TDD-based project plan with dependency analysis, parallel execution tracks, quality gates, and task decomposition. Creates /plan/plan.md and /plan/tasks/.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 5 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 2

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  2. Distinctive:

    All requirements are atomic and testable.

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 5 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Spec to Plan

This skill provides a structured workflow for converting ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148 compliant specifications into an executable, dependency-aware project plan with parallel execution tracks and quality gates.

Purpose

Use this skill when:

  • You are starting a new implementation task based on an existing Spec.
  • You need to generate a Test Plan before writing code (TDD).
  • You want to ensure full traceability from Requirements (StR/FR/NFR) to Tests.
  • You need to identify what can be parallelized vs what must be serial.
  • You want quality gates to catch fundamental problems before downstream work is wasted.

Pre-conditions (Readiness Gate)

Task generation MAY begin only when ALL of the following are true:

  • All requirements are atomic and testable.
  • Ownership is assigned (see spec-scope-boundary-analysis).
  • Dependencies are known (see spec-dependency-analysis).
  • Risks are classified (see spec-risk-complexity-analysis).
  • Verification strategy is defined (see spec-evidence-analysis).
  • Failure-domain analysis is complete (see spec-failure-domain-analysis).

Failure to meet these conditions WILL result in unstable tasking. If any condition is unmet, stop and complete the corresponding analysis skill first.

Steps

All steps required!

  1. Analysis: Analyze the spec structure and map dependencies.
  2. Test Plan: Generate the list of required tests.
  3. Execution Plan: Derive dependency graph, critical path, parallel tracks, quality gates, and task decomposition.

Output

This skill produces or updates:

  • <project_root>/plan/plan.md: The central living document containing requirements summary, dependency graph, execution tracks, quality gates, and test plan.
  • <project_root>/plan/tasks/: Individual task files for distribution and tracking, with status, dependencies, and subtask breakdowns.
  • <project_root>/plan/tasks/README.md: Task index showing completed work, active tracks, and coordination rules.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
