What problem does it solve?
Teams entering a two-day Foundation Sprint often start Day 1 re-litigating why they are in the room because scope, the decision to unlock, roles, and logistics were never committed to writing. This Skill produces a signed one-page brief that serves as the contract for the sprint before Day 1 begins.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Six-section brief generation: Produces the initiative statement and stakes, the single-sentence decision the sprint must unlock, a team roster with role assignments, a logistics plan, a list of existing inputs to bring, and a readiness reaffirmation checklist.
- Readiness integration: Consumes the Go verdict, attendee recommendations, and preconditions from the tool-foundation-sprint-readiness skill and flags any precondition that remains open.
- Decider Checkpoint: Ends with a sign-off block where the Decider confirms scope, team, success criteria, and the tradeoff that one direction becomes the top bet.
- Use Case: After a Go readiness verdict for a product initiative, a facilitator invokes this Skill with the initiative description, team roster, and logistics constraints to produce the one-page brief the Decider signs before the sprint starts.
Quick Start
Use the foundation sprint brief skill to draft a one-page pre-sprint brief for our two-day sprint, covering the decision we must unlock, the team roster, logistics, inputs to bring, and the Decider sign-off.
