Learn how to break massive tasks into context-window-sized phases using PRDs, multi-phase plans, and tracer bullets so Claude Code can tackle features that would otherwise overwhelm a single session.
What You Will Learn
- How to Tackle Massive Tasks — Why large features break down in a single context window and the strategy for splitting them up
- Write Great PRDs with This Skill — Use a PRD-writing skill to have Claude Code interview you and produce a detailed product requirements document
- Split Features Across Multiple Context Windows — Turn a PRD into a multi-phase plan that distributes work across multiple sessions
- What Are Tracer Bullets — Discover the tracer bullet concept from The Pragmatic Programmer and why vertical slices beat horizontal layers
- Use Tracer Bullets in Our Multi Phase Plan — Apply tracer bullets to create vertical-slice phases that wire up the full stack incrementally
- Executing Our Multi Phase Plan — Walk through implementing a multi-phase plan one phase at a time with Claude Code
