What it does
Generate Stories is an agent skill from digipulse-engineering/GAAI-framework. Translate a single Epic into clear, actionable User Stories with explicit acceptance criteria. Activate when an Epic is defined and work needs to be prepared for Delivery execution.
Its SKILL.md is about 5.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: Works with any filesystem-based AI coding agent
It sits in Product & Project Management, covering User stories. The repository describes itself as: Turns AI coding tools into reliable software delivery systems. Drop a .gaai/ folder into any project — Discovery defines what to build, Delivery executes autonomously until…

Requirements
- Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Works with any filesystem-based AI coding agent
Workflow steps
12 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Read the Story template at contexts/artefacts/stories/_template.story.md. Read the parent Epic file. Derive story IDs using the parent…
- Read parent Epic domain. If Epic has a domain, set it as the story's default. Allow explicit override per story.
- Write from the user's perspective
- Focus on behavior, not UI or technology
- Keep stories small and independent
- Ensure every story is testable
- Avoid technical solutions in story body
- For each story, answer: "What should the user be able to do or experience?"
- Output using canonical Story template
- MANDATORY — Validation gates via isolated sub-agents (MUST pass before backlog registration).
- MANDATORY — Epic dependency propagation (MUST execute before backlog registration).
- MANDATORY — Register in backlog. After writing all story files, add each story to contexts/backlog/active.backlog.yaml with
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a26ea7a. 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:
bash
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.
Compatibility
Works with any filesystem-based AI coding agent
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Context cost
Generate Stories loads about 5.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,883 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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,883 words (~5,528 tokens).
