memstack-product-user-story-generator

memstack-product-user-story-generator is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cwinvestments/memstack. It costs 64 tokens per session (2,429 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A user-story planning tool turns product needs into prioritized stories with Given/When/Then acceptance criteria, estimates, and story maps. Acceptance criteria describe the conditions that make a story complete.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for backlog creation, sprint planning, story-point estimates, MoSCoW prioritization, and mapping stories across product areas.
Why use it?
It makes planned work clearer and more estimable, so teams can agree on what to build and when it is done.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

memstack-product-user-story-generator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

User Story Generator: Generating user stories...

Produces prioritized user stories with Given/When/Then acceptance criteria, story point estimates, story mapping across epics, and MoSCoW prioritization for sprint planning.

Activation

When this skill activates, output:

User Story Generator: Generating user stories...

Then execute the protocol below.

Context Guard

Context Status
User says "user stories", "write stories", "backlog" ACTIVE
User says "sprint planning" or "acceptance criteria" ACTIVE
User wants to break work into estimable, assignable stories ACTIVE
User wants a full product requirements document DORMANT: use PRD Writer
User wants a detailed spec for one feature DORMANT: use Feature Spec

Common Mistakes

Mistake Why It's Wrong
"As a user, I want the system to..." Stories describe user needs, not system behavior. The "I want to" should be a user action.
"Write a story for every edge case" Edge cases go in acceptance criteria, not separate stories. One story per user intent.
"Stories without acceptance criteria" "Done" becomes subjective. Every story needs testable criteria before sprint planning.
"Estimate in hours" Hours vary by person. Story points measure relative complexity, not calendar time.
"50-point stories in the sprint" If it's bigger than 8 points, split it. Large stories hide unknowns and block the team.

Protocol

Step 1: Gather Context

If the user hasn't provided details, ask:

  1. Feature/epic: what area are you writing stories for?
  2. Personas: who are the users? (roles, permissions, experience levels)
  3. Existing context: is there a PRD, feature spec, or design to reference?
  4. Sprint goal: what are you trying to ship this sprint?
  5. Team capacity: how many story points can the team handle? (helps scope)

Step 2: Identify Epics & Themes

Group stories under epics (large bodies of work):

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
