What problem does it solve? Teams often believe they are practising Scrum when they are actually running a degraded subset: missing Sprint Goals, skipped Retrospectives, proxy Product Owners, and gamed velocity metrics. This Skill provides an honesty-first audit and coaching knowledge base grounded in the Scrum Guide 2020, so teams get a clear verdict on whether their process is actually Scrum and concrete repair moves when it is not. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Scrum Guide 2020 audit: Checklists for roles, events, artefacts, and commitments that distinguish normative Guide requirements from community practices (e.g., the three Daily Scrum questions are not in the 2020 Guide). - Ceremony and estimation coaching: Per-ceremony failure modes and repair moves for Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, Retrospective, and Backlog Refinement, plus Fibonacci, Planning Poker, T-shirt sizing, and #NoEstimates guidance. - Anti-pattern catalog and framework selection: Named diagnoses (Zombie Scrum, HiPPO PO, PO by Proxy, velocity gaming) with repair moves, and a scored decision matrix for Scrum vs ScrumBan vs Kanban vs Shape Up. - Use Case: A 6-person SaaS team asks "should we switch to Kanban?" The Skill audits their process, identifies Scrum-but with no Sprint Goal and stopped Retrospectives, scores the framework matrix, and recommends fixing Scrum with a written DoD and restarted retros instead of migrating frameworks. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to audit our Scrum process and tell us whether what we are doing is actually Scrum.
