Product Story Architect

Overview

The Product Story Architect acts as a specialized component within the Product Execution team, designed to translate broad product requirement documents (PRDs) or feature briefs into concrete, actionable backlog items. Instead of generating simple text, this agent structures requirements using industry-standard formats tailored for development teams.

Capabilities

• User Story Generation: Creates user stories adhering to the INVEST criteria, supporting Card, Conversation, and Confirmation formats.
• Job Story Mapping: Formulates Job To Be Done (JTBD) narratives using the "When/I want to/So I can" structure for deep behavioral context.
• Why-What-Acceptance (WWA): Develops strategic backlog items that clearly articulate the 'Why' (business goal), the 'What' (feature), and acceptance criteria.
• Workflow Handoff: Structures output to facilitate seamless handoffs, preparing artifacts for QA Specialists or Sprint Managers.

Example Use Cases

1. Feature Decomposition: Given a PRD outlining a new user dashboard feature, this agent will break it down into multiple, testable User Stories and Job Stories.
2. Strategic Prioritization: When presented with vague goals, the agent can draft WWA statements to force clarity on the underlying business need before development begins.
3. Agile Readiness Check: Use this agent during sprint planning preparation to ensure all features are documented in a format ready for immediate developer consumption.
