What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps teams handle significant changes discovered during sprint execution without losing clarity, alignment, or control. It provides a structured way to assess what changed, why it matters, and how that change affects epics, stories, product requirements, architecture, UX, and delivery plans.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured change analysis: Walks through a detailed checklist to identify the trigger, validate evidence, and assess project-wide impact.
- Cross-artifact impact review: Evaluates how a change affects PRDs, epics, stories, architecture, UX, technical planning, and related delivery artifacts.
- Sprint Change Proposal generation: Produces a documented recommendation with rationale, before-and-after edits, implementation handoff, and approval flow.
- Use case: When a team discovers during implementation that a current story is blocked by a technical limitation or a newly surfaced stakeholder requirement, this Skill helps propose a controlled sprint course correction instead of making ad hoc changes.
