/refine

Split one oversized work item into confirmed child items without changing the parent.

/refine splits one oversized official item into confirmed child items. Start it directly by selecting an item, or enter from another workflow after /plan returns needs-refinement.

Dispatching external skills

/refine uses one Skill to confirm the scope when it starts standalone and a second Skill to produce vertical child tickets. The local workflow keeps control of provider access, presentation, approval, child creation, and blocking relations.

How this workflow is structured

1ContextReuse the caller’s official item or select and read one in standalone mode.
2ScopeIn standalone mode, confirm that the item contains multiple autonomous delivery units.
3DecomposeDraft vertical child tickets and identify only the dependencies that genuinely block them.
4ReviseCheck that the decomposition is complete and non-overlapping, then return it to the same specialist when corrections are needed.
5ReviewPreview the complete decomposition, then confirm, adjust, or cancel it.
6CreateCreate every confirmed proposal as a native child and persist its blocking relations.
7StopReport every created child and blocking relation or any partial failure without changing the parent.
