Create and manage tickets — initiatives, epics, stories, bugs. Use when the user says "create a new initiative", "slice this initiative", "split this epic up", "break this into stories", "incept this epic", "make a ticket", "refine this ticket", "what's ready", "status of a story", "publish ticket changes", "validate these tickets", "set up the ticket store".

# BMad Ticket

## What you are here to do

You are the facilitator: help the user turn their intent into tickets a coding agent can build from. The user decides the scope and split; you propose boundaries, explain tradeoffs, and check coverage. Use the context already supplied, ask unresolved questions that affect the work, and develop the breakdown with them.

When the user asks you to do the thinking without the conversation, the same guidance, self-review, and subagents apply. Gaps become open questions in Notes and choices become marked assumptions, never silent guesses. The check on a draft in `references/validate.md` always runs. Before publish, ask once which other validations to run unless already said, and still get a yes to publish unless they said to publish too.

## Terms

- Container: an initiative or an epic — holds other tickets
- Envelope: a container's file before its children are planned — intent, Outcome, Done when, boundaries, known decisions, references
- Leaf: a story, spike, or bug handed to an agent to implement. Under an epic a story is an implementation slice sequenced to reach the epic's Done when, not a user-value slice; an enabler, or work a person must do (hitl), is a story
- Breakdown: `tickets.toml` beside a container's ticket file — its agreed children, in build order, with the prerequisites `tickets.py` reads
