SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Agile teams using the BMAD method lose visibility into which stories and epics are in progress, blocked, or done, and often don't know which workflow to run next. This Skill reads the sprint-status.yaml tracking file and turns it into a clear status summary with risk warnings and a concrete next-step recommendation. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Sprint Status Summary: Parses sprint-status.yaml to count stories and epics by status (backlog, ready-for-dev, in-progress, review, done) and displays a formatted overview. - Risk Detection: Flags stale status files, orphaned stories, in-progress epics without stories, and unrecognized status values, with interactive correction of invalid entries. - Next Workflow Recommendation: Selects the next BMAD workflow (dev-story, code-review, create-story, or retrospective) based on priority rules over the current sprint state. - Use Case: A developer starts their day and asks for the sprint status; the Skill reports that story 2-3 is in review, warns the file is 8 days stale, and recommends running the code-review workflow. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to check the sprint status and it will load sprint-status.yaml, summarize progress, and recommend the next workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check sprint status in a BMAD project?▼

Ask the assistant to check or show sprint status. It loads the sprint-status.yaml file from the implementation artifacts directory, counts stories and epics by status, and displays a summary with risks and a recommended next workflow.

What file does the sprint status workflow read?▼

It reads sprint-status.yaml located in the implementation_artifacts path defined in the BMAD config.yaml. If the file is missing, it instructs you to run the sprint-planning workflow first to generate it.

What happens if sprint-status.yaml contains invalid status values?▼

The workflow lists each unrecognized status and asks how to correct them. You can provide corrections like "1=in-progress, 2=backlog", and it updates the file and re-parses it, or you can skip and continue.

How does the sprint status skill decide the next recommended workflow?▼

It follows a priority order: in-progress stories get dev-story, review stories get code-review, ready-for-dev stories get dev-story, backlog stories get create-story, and optional retrospectives get the retrospective workflow.

What risks does sprint status tracking detect?▼

It warns when the status file is more than 7 days stale, when a story has no matching epic (orphaned story), when an in-progress epic has no stories, and when stories sit in review needing code review.
