What problem does it solve?
Scope-check prevents projects from silently expanding by comparing the original planned scope to what is currently implemented or in progress, then quantifying additions and recommending specific triage actions.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Original-vs-Current comparison: Locates a baseline plan (feature/GDD, sprint plan, or milestone doc) and scans the codebase and commits to summarize the actual current scope.
- Scope change reporting with quantification: Flags additions and removals, calculates bloat score and net scope change, and presents a risk assessment across schedule, quality, and integration.
- Decision-ready verdict and next steps: Produces a PASS/CONCERNS/FAIL verdict and suggests follow-up actions (cut, defer, keep, or escalate) for producers and creative/directors.
Use it when you suspect scope creep (e.g., mid-sprint concerns, feature discussions, or “are we staying in scope” checks) and you need an evidence-based report rather than intuition.
Quick Start
Run /scope-check with the feature name or sprint number you want to evaluate and read the generated scope verdict and recommended cuts.
