SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Sprint teams often need an immediate answer to how the sprint is going, but manually reviewing plans and story files is slow and error-prone.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Instant sprint progress snapshot: Reads the current sprint plan and story files to summarize progress concisely (kept to 30 lines).
  • Status truth with fallback: Prefers production/sprint-status.yaml as the authoritative source, then falls back to lightweight markdown scanning when it’s missing.
  • Burndown + risk assessment: Computes completion vs time consumed to label On Track, At Risk, or Behind, and escalates if in-progress stories appear stale.

Quick Start

Ask for a sprint update by running /sprint-status with no argument to check the current sprint.

Frequently Asked Questions about sprint-status

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I get a quick sprint health snapshot from markdown story files?▼

To get a sprint health snapshot, this tool reads your sprint plan and story status sources from disk. It uses production/sprint-status.yaml as the authoritative status source, falling back to lightweight markdown scanning when that file is missing.

How does burndown calculation and risk escalation work for ongoing sprints?▼

Burndown calculation works by computing story completion percentages against time consumed in the sprint. Risk escalation triggers when in-progress stories appear stale, labeling the sprint as On Track, At Risk, or Behind.

What's the best way to check sprint progress without manually reviewing story files?▼

The best way to check sprint progress is to request a sprint update, which scans your production/sprints/ directory to locate files and summarizes progress concisely in a snapshot kept to thirty lines.

Can I check the status of a specific sprint number or only the current one?▼

You can check a specific sprint number by providing it as an argument when requesting a sprint update. Running without an argument defaults to checking the current ongoing sprint's health and progress.

Do I need a sprint-status.yaml file to generate a sprint update?▼

You do not need a sprint-status.yaml file to generate a sprint update. The tool prefers it as the authoritative source but performs status, staleness, and burndown calculations by falling back to lightweight markdown scanning.

Why does my sprint update show a stale story risk escalation?▼

A stale story risk escalation appears because the status assessment detected in-progress stories that have not been updated recently. This mechanism flags potential delays by computing completion versus time consumed.
