License
a license file GitHub does not identify

Use when a product manager or product owner wants to create a new story, bug, or task - guides them interactively through writing quality issues with proper acceptance criteria and technical details. Supports Jira and Azure DevOps.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Story Writer

## Overview

Interactive guided interview for writing high-quality work items. Collects all required information through conversation, produces a structured document, and optionally creates the item in a tracking system (Jira or Azure DevOps).

**Announce at start:** "I'm using the story-writer skill to help you create a quality work item."

---

## Handling Pre-Populated Briefs

Check `$ARGUMENTS` for a **story brief** (passed from `story-splitter`) and/or a **TRACKING SYSTEM** block.

If a brief is present, extract what's already provided and **skip or pre-fill** the corresponding interview questions:

| Brief field | Pre-fills | Action |
|---|---|---|
| `Type: Story` | Step 1 (Issue Type) | Skip — announce "Creating a Story" |
| `Title:` | Q2 (Title) | Pre-fill — show and confirm: *"Proposed title: **[title]**. Does this work, or would you like to change it?"* |
| `CRUD Verb:` | Q4 (CRUD Verb) | Pre-fill — show and confirm |
| `This story covers:` | Q3 (Description) | Use as starting context — still ask the PO to expand it into a full user journey |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sean-m-cooper/ai_tools/story-writer@sha256:71ea3a678627930c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260524.e7c16fb, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
