User Story Slicer

Slices an oversized feature into independently shippable vertical slices — value-first, walking-skeleton-first, never 'build the schema' as a story.

Prompt text

I have this feature: [feature description] that feels too big to build in one go. Slice it into small, independently shippable user stories.

Rules for each slice:
- Each one delivers real (even if small) end-to-end user value on its own — not just a technical layer (e.g. not "build the database schema" as a standalone story)
- Ordered so the first slice is the smallest possible version that's still genuinely useful (a real "walking skeleton"), not a throwaway prototype
- Each slice has a rough size estimate (S/M/L) and what it explicitly excludes (deferred to a later slice)

Output as a numbered, ordered list. Flag if any slice still seems too big and needs further splitting.
