Guides the creation of agile epics with comprehensive definition including business value, success criteria, and breakdown into user stories. Use when the user wants to create an agile epic, define large bodies of work, break down features into user stories, or document strategic initiatives. This should trigger for requests such as Create an agile epic; Write an epic; I need to create an epic; Define an epic; Epic definition. Part of cursor-rules-java project

What this skill does

# Create Agile Epics

Guide the agent to systematically gather information and generate a comprehensive epic definition in Markdown format. An epic represents a large body of work that can be broken down into smaller user stories, features, or tasks. **This is an interactive SKILL**.

**What is covered in this Skill?**

- Epic core details: title/ID, owner, business value, target users
- Epic scope and context: problem statement, solution overview, success criteria, dependencies
- Epic breakdown: key features and components (3-7 high-level items)
- Risk assessment: risks, assumptions, and unknowns
- Documentation linking: related documents and epic filename
- Next steps and recommendations for epic management

## Constraints

Before generating the epic document, gather all required information through structured questions. Use exact wording from the template and wait for user responses. Always get current date before starting.

- **MANDATORY**: Get current date using terminal command before starting the epic creation process
- **MANDATORY**: Ask questions from the template one-by-one in strict order before generating any artifacts
- **MUST**: Read the reference template fresh and use exact wording—do not use cached questions
- **MUST**: Wait for user response after each question or block before proceeding
- **MUST**: Replace all date placeholders with actual current date in the generated document

## When to use this skill

- Create an agile epic
- Write an epic
- I need to create an epic
- Define an epic
- Epic definition

## Workflow

0. **Get current date**

Run `date` before starting and use it to replace all date placeholders in the generated epic document.

1. **Gather epic information**

Ask the template questions in strict order, using exact wording and waiting for user responses before continuing.

Step constraints:
- Read the question template fresh before asking
- Do not skip or reorder required questions

2. **Generate epic document**

Create the epic Markdown with all required sections (scope, value, features, dependencies, risks, and success criteria) and apply the actual current date.

3. **Provide follow-up recommendations**

Close with actionable next steps for story breakdown, planning, and epic tracking.

cupynumeric-migration-readiness

Included

Pre-migration readiness assessor for porting NumPy to cuPyNumeric. Use BEFORE substantial porting work begins when the user asks whether code will scale on GPU, whether they should migrate to cuPyNumeric, which NumPy patterns transfer cleanly, what must be refactored before porting, or mentions pre-port assessment, scaling analysis, or refactor planning. Inspect the user's source code, look up NumPy usage, cross-reference the cuPyNumeric API support manifest, and distinguish distributed-scaling-friendly patterns from blockers such as unsupported APIs, scalar synchronization, host round-trips, Python/object-heavy control flow, shape/data-dependent branching, and in-place mutation hazards. Produce a verdict of READY, LIGHT REFACTOR, SIGNIFICANT REFACTOR, or NOT RECOMMENDED, with concrete refactor pointers.

alibabacloud-data-agent-skill

Included

Invoke Alibaba Cloud Apsara Data Agent for Analytics via CLI to perform natural language-driven data analysis on enterprise databases. Data Agent for Analytics is an intelligent data analysis agent developed by Alibaba Cloud Database team for enterprise users. It automatically completes requirement analysis, data understanding, analysis insights, and report generation based on natural language descriptions. This tool supports: discovering data resources (instances/databases/tables) managed in DMS, initiating query or deep analysis sessions, real-time progress tracking, and retrieving analysis conclusions and generated reports. Use this Skill when users need to query databases, analyze data trends, generate data reports, ask questions in natural language, or mention "Data Agent", "data analysis", "database query", "SQL analysis", "data insights".

token-optimizer

Included

Reduce OpenClaw token usage and API costs through smart model routing, heartbeat optimization, budget tracking, and native 2026.2.15 features (session pruning, bootstrap size limits, cache TTL alignment). Use when token costs are high, API rate limits are being hit, or hosting multiple agents at scale. The 4 executable scripts (context_optimizer, model_router, heartbeat_optimizer, token_tracker) are local-only — no network requests, no subprocess calls, no system modifications. Reference files (PROVIDERS.md, config-patches.json) document optional multi-provider strategies that require external API keys and network access if you choose to use them. See SECURITY.md for full breakdown.
