Only ready tickets reach your developers.
The Conductor reviews every request against your codebase, works with the PM until it is complete, and hands developers a ticket they can start on. No half-formed asks, no repeated revisions, no chasing answers across threads.
Works on top of Linear, Jira and Slack. Nothing new for your PMs to learn.

- ?Acceptance criteria missing
Developers pay for every half-formed ticket.
"Add dark mode" arrives with no scope and no acceptance criteria, and the cost of finishing the spec lands on whoever picks it up.
Constant interruptions
A ping for every request and every edit breaks focus long before the work is ready to start.
Specs gathered by asking
Missing criteria, scope and context get pulled out one question at a time, across threads and tools.
The same explanations
Every requester hears about the same limitations in the codebase, one conversation at a time.
Early churn
Requests get reshaped several times in their first days, and developers see every revision.
Chasing answers
A blocked ticket means tracking down the requester, then waiting for them to reply.
Work already done
Duplicates and already-shipped features slip through until someone recognises them halfway in.
A gate between backlog and engineering.
The Conductor sits at the point where a request becomes work. It drafts and proposes; people decide.
A request arrives
From a Slack message, a Linear or Jira issue. The Conductor waits for edits to settle before it looks.
It reads the code
An impact map of the files involved, with citations, plus duplicates, related work and the questions a developer would ask.
The PM fills the gaps
A live checklist shows what is missing. Reminders are gentle and spaced out. The PM can override the gate, with a reason.
A ready ticket ships
Developers see only tickets that pass, with a handoff summary. Their questions are relayed to the PM and answers come back.
It moderates. You decide.
Ticket text and repository content are treated as untrusted input, and the Conductor's write access stays minimal.
- Never assigns work to anyone
- Never writes, commits, merges or deploys code
- Never starts an implementation on its own
- Never closes a ticket on someone's behalf
- Keeps secrets and customer data out of every channel
Fewer, better tickets.
- See the settled request, not every early revision
- Incomplete tickets stay with the requester
- Feasibility checked against the code before it reaches you
- Duplicates caught before they are queued
- Ask a question once; the answer comes to you
Know exactly what's missing.
- Keep using Slack, Linear or Jira, with no new template
- A one-line request becomes a structured ticket
- Feasibility in minutes, without waiting on a developer
- Time to finish the request, without nagging
- Complete tickets get picked up sooner
