What it does

When a Notion PRD is flagged ready for engineering, the agent reads the full spec, creates a parent epic in Linear, and breaks the requirements into estimated child issues. Each issue links back to the originating PRD section so engineers can trace scope to the source document.

When to use it

Use when product writes specs in Notion and the handoff to engineering is manual and lossy. This converts an approved PRD into a structured, estimated Linear epic in one step, keeping the spec as the source of truth.

How it works

  1. 1A Notion trigger fires when a PRD page's status changes to Ready.
  2. 2A Notion action reads the page body and any linked requirement blocks.
  3. 3OpenAI summarizes the PRD into an epic description plus a list of child issues with estimates and acceptance criteria.
  4. 4A Linear action creates the parent epic.
  5. 5A Linear action creates each child issue under the epic, embedding a backlink to the PRD section it came from.

Set it up
