+## Description
+
+[Brief summary of the broken functionality. e.g., LangGraph ReAct agent example fails on RHOAI due to deprecated API call.]
+
+## Steps to Reproduce
+
+1. [Step 1]
+2. [Step 2]
+3. [Step 3]
+
+## Expected Outcome
+
+[What should have happened?]
+
+## Actual Outcome
+
+[What actually happened? Include logs, error messages, or stack traces.]
+
+## Workaround
+
+[Is there a temporary way to bypass this issue? If none, state "None".]
+
+## Impact
+
+[Who is affected and how severely? e.g., All users following the CrewAI quickstart cannot complete the deployment step.]
+
+## Dependency Chain
+
+[Explicitly call out any upstream framework bugs or RHOAI platform issues blocking this fix. If none, state "None".]
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] Bug cannot be reproduced using the steps above
+- [ ] Example runs successfully locally and on RHOAI
+- [ ] CI/CD pipeline passes
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+[Describe how the functionality will be tested and automated. Note areas requiring manual or complex testing that should be considered during story pointing and code review.]

+
+## Business Objective
+
+[State the overarching goal, customer need, or framework capability being delivered. e.g., Deliver an E2E agentic example using CrewAI with tool-calling on RHOAI.]
+
+## Technical Approach
+
+[High-level architecture or technical plan drafted by the Feature Shepherd. Include target framework, deployment pattern (local + RHOAI), and any POC links.]
+
+## External Dependencies
+
+[List any cross-team dependencies, upstream framework blockers, or RHOAI platform requirements. If none, state "None".]
+
+## Epic Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] E2E example is functional locally and deployed on RHOAI
+- [ ] Documentation and README are complete and reviewed
+- [ ] CI/CD pipeline passes for the example
+
+## Shepherd Breakdown Checklist
+
+- [ ] Epic is broken down into properly sized Stories, Tasks, and Spikes.
+- [ ] Child tickets meet the Definition of Ready (clear intent, AC defined, pointed).
+- [ ] Work is delegated across the team to build shared expertise and prevent knowledge silos.

+## Objective
+
+[State the specific question we need to answer or the unknown we are researching. e.g., Evaluate whether AutoGen supports tool-calling patterns compatible with our RHOAI deployment model.]
+
+## Time-Box
+
+[State the maximum amount of effort to spend before stopping. e.g., 2 days.]
+
+## Expected Artifacts
+
+[Check the expected outputs of this investigation.]
+
+- [ ] Design document or technical plan
+- [ ] Proof of Concept (POC) or Draft PR
+- [ ] New Jira tickets created and broken down for upcoming sprints
