What problem does it solve?
Manually tracking progress across stories, epics, and retrospectatives in BMAD-based development workflows is time-consuming and often leads to missed risks or unclear next steps for the team.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Sprint Status Summarization: Parses sprint-status.yaml to count and categorize story, epic, and retrospective statuses for a full project overview.
- Risk Detection: Automatically flags common issues like stale status files, orphaned stories, in-progress epics with no associated stories, and stories stuck in review.
- Workflow Recommendation: Suggests the next prioritized BMAD workflow action (such as dev-story, code-review, or create-story) based on current sprint state.
Use Case: A development team using BMAD can run this skill to instantly get a clear picture of sprint health, identify blockers, and know exactly which workflow to execute next without manually reviewing status files.
