SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps Scrum Masters and product teams manage significant changes discovered during sprint execution by systematically assessing impact across epics, PRD, architecture, and UX and producing a clear Sprint Change Proposal to guide decisions and handoffs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured Impact Analysis: Walks through a multi-section checklist to identify trigger, epic impact, artifact conflicts, and implementation consequences.
  • Actionable Change Proposals: Drafts precise edit proposals for stories, PRD sections, architecture, and UX with before/after text and rationale.
  • Implementation Handoff: Classifies change scope (Minor/Moderate/Major), assigns responsible roles, and generates a final sprint-change document for the project planning artifacts.
  • Use Case: When a discovery during development invalidates part of an epic, use this Skill to evaluate options, estimate effort and risk, and produce a vetted plan for backlog updates or replan.

Quick Start

Run the correct-course workflow to analyze the identified issue, follow the checklist, and generate a Sprint Change Proposal document.

Analyze sprint execution issues by walking through a multi-section checklist that identifies the trigger, evaluates epic impact, flags artifact conflicts, and outlines implementation consequences before drafting course corrections.

How do I draft edit proposals for backlog updates when a discovery invalidates part of an epic?

Draft backlog edit proposals by specifying precise before and after text changes for stories, PRD sections, architecture, and UX, along with a clear rationale for replanning the affected scope.

Can I use this workflow to classify change scope and assign responsible roles for replanning?

Yes, you can classify sprint change scope as Minor, Moderate, or Major, assign responsible roles for each adjustment, and produce a finalized sprint-change document for implementation handoff.

When do I need a formal sprint change proposal for Scrum backlog management?

You need a formal sprint change proposal when issues discovered during development affect epics, PRD, architecture, or UX, requiring the Scrum Master to evaluate options and recommend structured course corrections.
