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 not part of this tree. They live on the project-wide Bugs page. See Bugs.
