Task Decomposition

Break epics into parallelizable tasks with acceptance criteria, effort estimates, and dependency graphs.

Agent

Task Analyst - task-analyst

Workflow

1. Analyze epic and identify 4-5 parallel work streams
2. Decompose each stream into concrete tasks (parallel)
3. Set acceptance criteria in Given/When/Then format
4. Estimate effort (S/M/L/XL) and set parallelization flags
5. Build cross-stream dependency graph
6. Validate coverage against PRD user stories
7. Fill gaps with additional tasks if needed
8. Write task files to .claude/epics/<featureName>/<N>.md

Inputs

• projectName - Project name
