name: building-userstory description: Interactive Q&A to build UserStory.md from user input. Use when the user wants to create a user story document or start the assisted workflow.

User Story Builder

Interactively builds docs/UserStory.md through structured Q&A with the user.

Purpose

Guides users through creating a user story document that can be transformed into PRD.md using the generating-prd-from-userstory skill.

Workflow

1. Check for existing UserStory.md

   • If exists, ask user if they want to rebuild (backup as docs/UserStory.md.bak)

2. Ask structured questions using AskUserQuestion tool for each template section:

   • Project name
   • Problem statement
   • Target users
   • Value proposition
   • User stories (use "As a [role], I want to [action] so that [benefit]" format)
   • Success criteria
   • Constraints
   • Out of scope

3. Generate UserStory.md

   • Read template from ralph/templates/userstory.md.template
   • Replace placeholders with user responses
   • Write to docs/UserStory.md

4. Suggest next step: make ralph_prd to generate PRD.md

Template

See ralph/templates/userstory.md.template for structure and placeholders.

Usage

Copymake ralph_userstory
