What it does
Bmad Create Epics And Stories is an agent skill from delorenj/mcp-server-trello. Break requirements into epics and user stories. Use when the user says "create the epics and stories list"
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files (for example `steps/step-01-validate-prerequisites.md`, `steps/step-02-design-epics.md` and `steps/step-03-create-stories.md`).
It sits in Product & Project Management, covering User stories. The repository describes itself as: A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides tools for interacting with Trello boards. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- The user says create the epics and stories list
- Tasks that involve User stories
Example prompts
- “create the epics and stories list”
- “/bmad-create-epics-and-stories”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 737292f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Bmad Create Epics And Stories loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 628 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- Break requirements into epics and user stories. Use when the user says "create the epics and stories list"
Create Epics and Stories
Goal: Transform PRD requirements and Architecture decisions into comprehensive stories organized by user value, creating detailed, actionable stories with complete acceptance criteria for the Developer agent.
Your Role: In addition to your name, communication_style, and persona, you are also a product strategist and technical specifications writer collaborating with a product owner. This is a partnership, not a client-vendor relationship. You bring expertise in requirements decomposition, technical implementation context, and acceptance criteria writing, while the user brings their product vision, user needs, and business requirements. Work together as equals.
Conventions
- Bare paths (e.g.
steps/step-01-validate-prerequisites.md) resolve from the skill root. {skill-root}resolves to this skill's installed directory (wherecustomize.tomllives).{project-root}-prefixed paths resolve from the project working directory.{skill-name}resolves to the skill directory's basename.
WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
This uses step-file architecture for disciplined execution:
Core Principles
- Micro-file Design: Each step toward the overall goal is a self-contained instruction file; adhere to one file at a time, as directed
- Just-In-Time Loading: Only 1 current step file will be loaded and followed to completion - never load future step files until told to do so
- Sequential Enforcement: Sequence within the step files must be completed in order, no skipping or optimization allowed
- State Tracking: Document progress in output file frontmatter using
stepsCompletedarray when a workflow produces a document - Append-Only Building: Build documents by appending content as directed to the output file
Step Processing Rules
- READ COMPLETELY: Always read the entire step file before taking any action
- FOLLOW SEQUENCE: Execute all numbered sections in order, never deviate
- WAIT FOR INPUT: If a menu is presented, halt and wait for user selection
- CHECK CONTINUATION: If the step has a menu with Continue as an option, only proceed to next step when user selects 'C' (Continue)
- SAVE STATE: Update
stepsCompletedin frontmatter before loading next step - LOAD NEXT: When directed, read fully and follow the next step file
Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)
- 🛑 NEVER load multiple step files simultaneously
- 📖 ALWAYS read entire step file before execution
- 🚫 NEVER skip steps or optimize the sequence
- 💾 ALWAYS update frontmatter of output files when writing the final output for a specific step
- 🎯 ALWAYS follow the exact instructions in the step file
- ⏸️ ALWAYS halt at menus and wait for user input
- 📋 NEVER create mental todo lists from future steps

On Activation
Step 1: Resolve the Workflow Block
Run: python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py --skill {skill-root} --key workflow
If the script fails, resolve the workflow block yourself by reading these three files in base → team → user order and applying the same structural merge rules as the resolver:
{skill-root}/customize.toml— defaults{project-root}/_bmad/custom/{skill-name}.toml— team overrides{project-root}/_bmad/custom/{skill-name}.user.toml— personal overrides
Any missing file is skipped. Scalars override, tables deep-merge, arrays of tables keyed by code or id replace matching entries and append new entries, and all other arrays append.
Step 2: Execute Prepend Steps
Execute each entry in {workflow.activation_steps_prepend} in order before proceeding.
Step 3: Load Persistent Facts
Treat every entry in {workflow.persistent_facts} as foundational context you carry for the rest of the workflow run. Entries prefixed file: are paths or globs under {project-root} — load the referenced contents as facts. All other entries are facts verbatim.
Step 4: Load Config
Load config from {project-root}/_bmad/bmm/config.yaml and resolve:
- Use
{user_name}for greeting - Use
{communication_language}for all communications - Use
{document_output_language}for output documents - Use
{planning_artifacts}for output location and artifact scanning - Use
{project_knowledge}for additional context scanning
Step 5: Greet the User
Greet {user_name}, speaking in {communication_language}.
Step 6: Execute Append Steps
Execute each entry in {workflow.activation_steps_append} in order.
Activation is complete. If activation_steps_prepend or activation_steps_append were non-empty, confirm every entry was executed in order before proceeding. Do not begin the main workflow until all activation steps have been completed.
Execution
Read fully and follow: ./steps/step-01-validate-prerequisites.md to begin the workflow.
