An agent skill by phuryn, from phuryn/pm-skills. Tags: design, documents, office.
What it does
Create user stories following the 3 C's (Card, Conversation, Confirmation) and INVEST criteria with descriptions, design links, and acceptance criteria. Use when writing user stories, breaking down features into backlog items, or defining acceptance criteria.
Install
With the skills CLI, which installs into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents:
npx skills add phuryn/pm-skills --skill user-stories

cp -r pm-skills/pm-execution/skills/user-stories ~/.claude/skills/user-stories
Safety box score
Grade A, minimal risk: 0 of 100 risk points, rated 2026-10-19. The grade rates what the skill and its scripts can reach on the machine of whoever installs it, across eight categories from shell execution to secrets access. How the score works.
This skill is a documentation-only prompt for drafting user stories from a product feature, design links, and assumptions. It does not include scripts, code execution, file access, or external actions, so the main risk is limited to whatever information the user chooses to include in the story brief.
| Category | Level | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Code & shell execution | 0 (none) | The only content is a markdown template and prose instructions; there are no shell commands, scripts, or code to run. |
| Network access | 0 (none) | It does not fetch remote content or send data anywhere; the only URL is a static reading link in the documentation. |
| Filesystem reach | 0 (none) | No files are read, written, or deleted by the skill itself. |
| Secrets & credentials | 0 (none) | It does not request credentials, tokens, passwords, or other secrets. |
| Privilege & persistence | 0 (none) | There is no sudo, installation, service registration, or OS/git configuration change. |
| Instruction hijack surface | 0 (none) | The text gives formatting guidance only; it does not ask the agent to ignore instructions, hide things, or follow remote prompts. |
| Irreversible actions | 0 (none) | It produces user stories only and does not publish, deploy, message, pay, or delete anything. |
| Transparency | 0 (none) | All shipped content is plain readable markdown; there are no binaries, encoded blobs, or generated code. |
Before installing
- Confirm the team wants this exact story template (3 C's, INVEST, 4-6 acceptance criteria) before using it.
- If you will include design links or assumptions, make sure they do not contain sensitive or private information you would not want echoed in generated stories.
