How does it handle token limits with large Epics?

It uses a progressive loading strategy, fetching full story descriptions one by one rather than all at once, ensuring efficient use of Claude's context window.

Does this skill delete stories from Linear?

No, it marks obsolete stories as 'Canceled' rather than deleting them to ensure history is preserved while keeping the backlog clean.

What happens if a story is already 'In Progress'?

The skill detects the 'In Progress' status and issues a warning, requiring explicit user confirmation before making any changes to avoid disrupting active work.

Can I customize the story template used during replanning?

Yes, the skill looks for a local story_template.md in your project's docs folder, allowing you to maintain custom sections and formatting.

Synchronizes and updates Linear user stories automatically when Epic requirements or technical standards change.

Acerca de

The ln-222-story-replanner is a production-ready worker skill for Claude Code that manages the evolution of software delivery. It intelligently compares a project's ideal state against existing Linear stories to categorize required actions as KEEP, UPDATE, OBSOLETE, or CREATE. By handling complex logic—such as status constraints for 'In Progress' work, story splits, and merges—it ensures your project backlog remains a source of truth. It streamlines the replanning phase by generating diffs for acceptance criteria and technical notes, updating kanban documentation, and enforcing INVEST standards without manual intervention.
