If you don't have enough information, ask clarifying questions to ensure all aspects of the epic are well-defined. ## Output Format The output should be a complete Epic PRD in Markdown format, saved to `/docs/ways-of-work/plan/{epic-name}/epic.md`. ### PRD Structure #### 1.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill breakdown-epic-pm --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
