Create job stories using the 'When [situation], I want to [motivation]
by phurynFree
Description
job-stories is an agent skill that writes backlog items as job stories, in the format When a situation happens, I want to take a motivation, so I can reach an outcome. Instead of describing a user by role, the format focuses on the context and the job the person is trying to do, which is the thinking behind jobs-to-be-done. The skill generates stories with detailed acceptance criteria that tie each one to a user situation. You provide the product name, the feature to break down, any design files such as Figma or Miro links, and the user situations or job scenarios. It is useful when writing a feature's backlog, expressing user motivations clearly, or turning a feature idea into items that developers and designers can test against. The skill is part of the pm-skills collection by phuryn and is listed on skills.sh as free.…
