Vertical Slice Planning FAQs

Question 1

When should I use this skill with Claude Code?

Accepted Answer

You should use it whenever you are starting a new feature, planning a pull request structure, or asking Claude questions like 'How should we break this down?' or 'What is the best order to implement these tasks?'

Question 2

How does vertical slicing improve my development workflow?

Accepted Answer

It facilitates continuous delivery by ensuring every piece of work results in a shippable, testable increment. This reduces integration headaches, provides visible progress, and allows for smaller, more manageable PRs that are easier to review.

Question 3

Can this skill integrate with project management tools?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it specifically includes strategies for Linear workflow integration, helping you map vertical slices directly to sub-issues and parent features for better project tracking and organization.

Question 4

What capabilities does this skill provide?

Accepted Answer

The skill provides architectural slicing guidance, implementation ordering based on dependencies, sizing guidelines to avoid oversized PRs, and specific strategies for identifying the 'thinnest' viable version of a feature to get it shipped faster.

Question 5

What does the Vertical Slice Planning skill do?

Accepted Answer

This skill helps Claude guide you through decomposing complex features into 'vertical slices'—thin, end-to-end pieces of functionality that cut through all layers (UI, API, and Database) rather than building one horizontal layer at a time.
