SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Helps product and engineering teams convert a prioritized backlog and team availability into a focused iteration plan by defining scope, estimating capacity, and setting measurable sprint goals to reduce overcommitment and unclear priorities.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Define clear iteration goals and acceptance criteria so the team knows what success looks like.
  • Estimate team capacity taking into account vacations, meetings, and partial availability to produce realistic velocity and load calculations.
  • Prioritize backlog and allocate work into P0/P1/P2 categories, surface dependencies and risks, and produce a markdown-formatted sprint plan for kickoff and stakeholder sharing.
  • Use case: Run at sprint kickoff to produce a capacity table, a prioritized work breakdown, identified blockers, and a mitigation plan for a two-week engineering sprint.

Quick Start

Run /sprint-planning with the team roster, iteration length, availability notes, and a prioritized backlog to generate a complete sprint plan in markdown.

Frequently Asked Questions about sprint-planning

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a sprint plan that accounts for team capacity and vacation?▼

Sprint planning converts your prioritized backlog and team availability into a structured iteration plan. It estimates capacity by factoring in vacations and meetings to produce realistic velocity calculations and a markdown sprint plan.

What is the best way to prioritize a backlog for an engineering sprint kickoff?▼

The best way to prioritize a backlog is allocating work into P0, P1, and P2 categories. This surfaces dependencies and risks while producing a markdown-formatted sprint plan for stakeholder sharing.

How do I estimate team velocity when members have partial availability?▼

To estimate team velocity with partial availability, calculate capacity by inputting team roster details and availability notes. The sprint plan adjusts velocity and load calculations based on actual working hours.

Can I handle leftover work from prior iterations during sprint planning?▼

Yes, sprint planning handles leftover work from prior iterations. It incorporates previous incomplete backlog items into the new iteration scope to ensure accurate capacity planning and risk mitigation.

How do I identify dependencies and blockers before a sprint starts?▼

To identify dependencies and blockers, input your backlog items and team roster into the sprint planning process. It surfaces these risks and generates a mitigation plan within the final markdown sprint document.
