  • When breaking down a large feature into implementable units
  • When identifying parallelization opportunities in a task set
  • When estimating effort and critical path for a feature

Key Principle

Every task must trace back to at least one specification requirement. Tasks must be atomic enough for a single development session. Dependency graphs must be acyclic.

Process

  1. Decompose components - Break architecture components into implementable tasks
  2. Define tasks - Each with id, title, description, acceptance criteria, dependencies, effort
  3. Build dependency graph - Show task ordering constraints
  4. Identify parallel groups - Tasks with no mutual dependencies
  5. Determine critical path - Longest dependency chain
  6. Generate test tasks - Testing tasks alongside implementation
  7. Map to requirements - Traceability from tasks to specification
  8. Human review - Approve task list before implementation
