Hierarchy
Planning in Agilerr follows a strict hierarchy:
flowchart TD P[Project] --> E[Epic] --> F[Feature] --> S[User Story] --> T[Task] P -.-> B[Bug: outside the hierarchy]
| Level | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Project | A product or body of work. Everything lives in a project. |
| Epic | A large outcome, such as “Customer onboarding”. |
| Feature | A capability that delivers part of an epic. |
| User Story | A user-visible behaviour, usually written “As a … I can …”. |
| Task | A unit of delivery work for the team. |
An item can only sit under the level directly above it (a task under a story, a story under a feature, and so on). Epics sit directly under the project.
Bugs are separate
