SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Kaizen backlog health is critical for effective autonomous improvement. This Skill audits issue taxonomy, labels, horizons, incident density, and epic health to surface gaps and provide structured remediation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Label coverage audit: ensures required labels like kaizen, level-, and area/ are present.
  • Epic health and horizon analytics: checks for stale epics and distribution of work across horizons.
  • Incident density assessment: quantifies evidence vs hypotheses to guide prioritization.
  • Generated structured report: compiles findings with suggested fixes and workflow integration points.
  • Trigger-driven execution: can be invoked during regular maintenance or as part of reflex workflows.

Quick Start

Run the kaizen-audit-issues skill to generate a structured backlog audit report and suggested fixes.
