How does this skill link stories to code?

It uses specialized CLI commands to append migration IDs and test file paths to the YAML frontmatter of your markdown user stories, creating a searchable link between requirements and implementation.

Does it support complex project structures?

Absolutely. It organizes stories into modules, making it suitable for large applications with dozens of distinct functional areas or microservices.

How does the validation feature work?

The validation command checks for schema compliance using Zod, ensures all linked migration and test files actually exist, and verifies that no duplicate story IDs are present.

Can I use custom story templates?

Yes, the skill utilizes a story-template.md file within your documentation directory, allowing you to define the structure and fields required for your specific project needs.
