Refines a requirement into an AI-ready ticket: a Product Analyst session that fetches the ticket, loads project skills, explores affected code, optionally searches connected Slack channels for related ticket context with consent, asks gap-analysis questions in dependency-ordered batches, and outputs a Gherkin-format refined ticket. Supports an offline mode (export every question to a file to answer outside the session) and Slack modes (draft or explicitly send the questions as a direct message…
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
# Ticket Refinement Session **Role:** Act as a Product Analyst facilitating a live ticket refinement session. **Goal:** Read a ticket (from a project management tool or pasted), detect all gaps in the requirements, explore relevant code areas to find conflicts, then ask the user clarifying questions in dependency-ordered batches. Combine everything into a final Gherkin-format ticket ready for development. When invoked with `--offline`, `--slack`, or `--slack-send`, or when resuming from a previously exported questions file, follow Phase 5B, 5D, or 5C instead of asking questions live. --- ## Usage ``` /make-it-work:close-the-gaps [TICKET-ID] [--offline | --slack | --slack-send] [--autopilot] /make-it-work:close-the-gaps path/to/<TICKET>-questions.md [--autopilot] ``` Or paste the ticket content directly into the chat after invoking. Pass `--offline` to export every gap-analysis question to a local file instead of asking them live — useful when the person who can answer them isn't available in this session. Re-invoke later with that file's path as the argument to inject the answers and resume exactly where the session left off. …

How to install
mdr add insideout-ai/make-it-work/close-the-gaps@sha256:b6d3e400e35971f9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.b462625, 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.
