What problem does it solve?
Teams often struggle to run effective agile ceremonies, produce measurable sprint outcomes, and convert retrospectives into actionable improvements. This Skill removes ambiguity from sprint planning, prevents common standup and retrospective anti-patterns, and provides repeatable templates and metrics so teams can improve predictably.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Sprint Planning: structured goal template, backlog selection guidance, capacity calculation and estimations for common sprint lengths.
- Daily Standup: concise script with anti-pattern detection and guidance to keep standups short and focused.
- Velocity & Metrics Dashboard: recommended metrics (velocity, burndown, cycle time, defect rate, team happiness) and interpretation guidance for stakeholder reports.
- Sprint Review & Retrospective Workshop: multiple retro formats (Start/Stop/Continue, 4Ls, Sailboat, Mad/Sad/Glad, 5 Whys), facilitation flow, voting, and action-item templates with owners and due dates.
- Team Health Check & Coaching Plan: health radar, dysfunction diagnosis and prioritized coaching actions for issues like blame culture, scope creep, or technical debt.
- Use Cases: Scrum Masters and Product Managers preparing a two-week sprint package, Team Leads running better retros, Managers wanting stakeholder-ready velocity summaries, and coaches diagnosing team dysfunction.
