What is the SNIPER protocol in project management?

The SNIPER protocol is a development team coordination framework that tracks project phases and agent progress. It uses specific state files to provide real-time status updates, historical checkpoints, and quality gate results for auditing sprints.

How do I view recent checkpoints and quality gate results for a sprint?

You can view recent checkpoints and quality gate results by reading the project's live status file. This displays historical context and gate outcomes, allowing project managers to identify bottlenecks and audit sprint progress.

Does checking project status require any specific configuration files?

Yes, checking project status requires reading `.sniper/config.yaml` and `.sniper/live-status.yaml`. These files must exist in the project directory to provide the technical configuration overview and active agent progress summary.

Can I see which agents are active during a development sprint?

Yes, you can see active agents during a development sprint by reading the live status file. This displays real-time agent progress and current phase information, helping clarify operational status and identify any immediate bottlenecks.
