Writes, splits and refines user stories with Given/When/Then acceptance criteria in STORIES.md, feeding bdd-specs. Use when turning a feature request or a vague ask into a testable backlog entry.

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

# User stories

Turn product intent into stories that flow straight into `bdd-specs` with no manual
reshaping. The structure here is a contract, not decoration — get it right and stories
become specs become code with nothing lost in translation.

**Honest framing:** this is a discipline this plugin introduces, not one already standard
across Umbraco projects — don't present it to a team as "the Umbraco way." It's a real,
well-understood technique worth adopting on its own merits, and it's what makes
`bdd-specs`'s handoff work cleanly.

## Where this writes

`STORIES.md` in the feature's plan folder (owned by `feature-plan`, which usually dispatches
this skill as its first step). If invoked standalone before `feature-plan` has run, still write
to the same file, and note that `feature-plan` still needs to run to turn the stories into an
ordered, dependency-aware task list in `PLAN.md`.

## *The pipeline this sits in*

```
feature request ──▶ [user-stories] ──▶ STORIES.md ──▶ [bdd-specs] ──▶ specs ──▶ code
```

Map deliberately:

| Story artifact | Becomes in bdd-specs |
|---|---|
| One story | One Feature (one test class) |
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mattbrailsford/umbraco-devkit/user-stories@sha256:577d080c4891a8a9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.874111e, 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.
