Create Stories Workflow

Purpose

Break an epic or feature into implementation-ready stories with role owner, files or artifacts to inspect, acceptance criteria, and verification gates.

Inputs

• AGENTS.md
• .codex/studio.json
• .codex/workflows/create-stories.md
• production/timeline.md

Role

Producer (producer) owns this workflow.

Taxonomy

Category: implementation-planning CCGS adaptation coverage:

• story breakdown
• implementation-ready task slicing

CLI aliases:

• create-stories

Outputs

• Production plan
• Milestone tasks
• Risk register

Validation

• Tasks are bounded
• Risks and gates are named
• Owners and verification are clear

Phase Gates

• Confirm project state, owner role, write policy, and selected context.
• Name acceptance criteria before implementation or review work.
• Do not advance to handoff until evidence is recorded or a blocker is explicit.

Required Artifacts

• Summary of the workflow result.
• Files, assets, tasks, or docs changed or proposed.
• Verification evidence and unresolved risks.

Context Contract

• Load AGENTS.md, .codex/studio.json, this workflow, the primary agent, linked skills, and only task-relevant project files.
• Avoid broad context unless the user explicitly approves it.

Output Contract

• Decision or change summary.
• Step-by-step work performed or planned.
• Evidence, blockers, warnings, and next owner.

Stop Conditions

• Required project state, approval, target files, or verification path is missing.
• The task crosses into another role without an explicit handoff.
• The workflow would require generated prompt mirrors or hidden automation.

Handoff

Report changed files, validation evidence, residual risks, and the next owner only when ownership changes.
