SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Teams often start sprints with unrefined stories and no clear goal, leading to mid-sprint chaos. This Skill enforces a structured sprint planning process that checks every story against your Definition of Ready before committing it to the sprint. ## Core Features & Use Cases - DoR Validation: Checks each backlog story against every criterion in your Definition of Ready and flags stories that are not ready. - Sprint Goal Definition: Guides you to write a single-sentence Sprint Goal tied to your Product Goal and active slice. - Capacity-Based Selection: Selects stories that fit team capacity and writes a complete sprint plan document to docs/05_scrum/sprints/sprint-N.md. - Use Case: After building a backlog with the pi-dev backlog skill, run sprint planning to produce a sprint plan with a goal, selected stories, excluded stories with reasons, and identified risks. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to plan the next sprint using the current backlog and Definition of Ready for the active slice.

Frequently Asked Questions about sprint-planning

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan a sprint from a product backlog?▼

Read the backlog for the active slice, verify each story against the Definition of Ready, define a single-sentence Sprint Goal, estimate capacity, and select stories that fit. The skill writes the result to docs/05_scrum/sprints/sprint-N.md.

What is a Definition of Ready check in sprint planning?▼

A Definition of Ready check verifies each backlog story meets agreed criteria before entering a sprint. Stories that fail are marked Not Ready, stay in the backlog as candidates, and are excluded from the sprint with documented reasons.

What files are required before running sprint planning?▼

You need docs/05_scrum/backlog.md with at least one slice section, docs/05_scrum/definition_of_ready.md, and an active slice recorded in project_memory.md. If any are missing, the skill stops and tells you which prerequisite skill to run first.

What happens if no backlog stories pass the DoR check?▼

The sprint cannot start. The skill stops and recommends fixing the highest-priority story first, since at least one story must be Ready before a sprint plan can be written.

Can I plan a sprint without knowing team capacity?▼

Yes. If capacity is unknown, the skill includes all Ready stories and flags the plan as unestimated. You can refine capacity in later sprints once velocity data exists.
