AI AGENTS
Split a story on demand from a Slack slash command
A team member runs a Slack command with a Linear issue ID; the agent reads the issue, proposes a split into smaller stories with criteria.

What it does
This agent puts story splitting one Slack command away. A developer or lead invokes it with a Linear issue ID when a story feels too big to start. The agent reads the issue, proposes a decomposition into smaller stories with draft acceptance criteria, and replies in the thread with a preview. Nothing is written to Linear until the requester confirms.
When to use it
Use it for just-in-time grooming during standup or planning, when someone realizes a story is oversized and wants a fast, reviewable split without leaving Slack. It complements scheduled grooming by handling the ad-hoc cases.
How it works
- 1A Slack slash command fires with a Linear issue ID as its argument.
- 2The agent fetches the issue's description, criteria, and current estimate from Linear.
- 3An LLM proposes 2-4 child stories, each with acceptance criteria and a point estimate.
- 4The agent posts the proposed split as an interactive preview in the Slack thread.
- 5A logic step waits for the requester to confirm or cancel.
- 6On confirm, the agent creates the child issues in Linear linked to the parent and replies with the new issue links.
