FAQPage Schema
How do I triage open action items before sprint planning?

Action item triage before sprint planning works by loading your action-items.yaml tracker, applying escalation rules for aging items, grouping open items by priority, and routing each item by type to the designated owner.

What is the best way to escalate aging backlog items during sprint prep?

Escalating aging backlog items during sprint prep involves applying automated escalation rules to your open action items, which groups them by priority and flags aging entries to ensure nothing slips into the next sprint unnoticed.

How does routing action items by type work for backlog grooming?

Routing action items by type during backlog grooming assigns clarification items to an assignee agent, implementation and automation items to the Scrum Master, and process items to a user, ensuring every entry has clear ownership.

Can I create stories from resolved action items using a classification gate?

Yes, you can create stories from resolved action items through a controlled handoff that enforces a classification gate, ensuring only properly categorized implementation and automation items are passed to the Scrum Master for story creation.

Why should I record reasoning when resolving open action items?

Recording reasoning when resolving open action items avoids silent closures and provides explicit rationale for every decision, maintaining a clear historical log within the action-items.yaml tracker for future backlog reference.

Does this triage workflow require a specific action-items.yaml format?

Yes, the triage workflow requires an action-items.yaml tracker to load and process open entries, applying priority grouping and type-based routing to prepare items for sprint planning.
