When this skill is invoked:

  1. Read the current milestone from

    production/milestones/
    .

  2. Read the previous sprint (if any) from

    production/sprints/
    to understand velocity and carryover. Use
    Glob("production/sprints/*.md")
    then read the file with the highest sprint number.

  3. Scan design documents in

    design/
    for features tagged as ready for implementation.

  4. Check the risk register at

    production/risk-register/
    if it exists.

For

new
:

  1. Determine sprint number — count existing files in

    production/sprints/
    and increment by 1. Sprint N = number of existing sprint files + 1.

  2. Generate a sprint plan following this format, then save to

    production/sprints/sprint-{N}.md
    (confirm path with user before writing):

# Sprint [N] -- [Start Date] to [End Date]

## Sprint Goal
[One sentence describing what this sprint achieves toward the milestone]

## Capacity
- Total days: [X]
- Buffer (20%): [Y days reserved for unplanned work]
- Available: [Z days]

## Tasks

### Must Have (Critical Path)
| ID | Task | Agent/Owner | Est. Days | Dependencies | Acceptance Criteria |
|----|------|-------------|-----------|-------------|-------------------|

### Should Have
| ID | Task | Agent/Owner | Est. Days | Dependencies | Acceptance Criteria |
|----|------|-------------|-----------|-------------|-------------------|

### Nice to Have
| ID | Task | Agent/Owner | Est. Days | Dependencies | Acceptance Criteria |
|----|------|-------------|-----------|-------------|-------------------|

## Carryover from Previous Sprint
| Task | Reason | New Estimate |
|------|--------|-------------|

## Risks
| Risk | Probability | Impact | Mitigation |
|------|------------|--------|------------|

## Dependencies on External Factors
- [List any external dependencies]

## Definition of Done for this Sprint
- [ ] All Must Have tasks completed
- [ ] All tasks pass acceptance criteria
- [ ] No S1 or S2 bugs in delivered features
- [ ] Design documents updated for any deviations
- [ ] Code reviewed and merged

For

update
:

  1. Identify the current sprint file — find the latest file in

    production/sprints/
    (highest sprint number). Read it.

  2. Ask the user which task(s) to update: task ID, new status (

    done
    /
    in-progress
    /
    blocked
    ), and any notes or blocker details.

  3. Edit the sprint file in place using the Edit tool:

    • Move completed tasks to the "Completed" section if tracking status inline
    • Add blocker info to the Blocked table
    • Update
      % Done
      estimates for in-progress tasks
  4. Append a brief update log at the bottom of the file:

    ## Update Log
    - [YYYY-MM-DD]: [Summary of changes made]
    
  5. Confirm the edit to the user: "Sprint {N} updated — {X} task(s) changed."

For

status
:

  1. Generate a status report:
# Sprint [N] Status -- [Date]

## Progress: [X/Y tasks complete] ([Z%])

### Completed
| Task | Completed By | Notes |
|------|-------------|-------|

### In Progress
| Task | Owner | % Done | Blockers |
|------|-------|--------|----------|

### Not Started
| Task | Owner | At Risk? | Notes |
|------|-------|----------|-------|

### Blocked
| Task | Blocker | Owner of Blocker | ETA |
|------|---------|-----------------|-----|

## Burndown Assessment
[On track / Behind / Ahead]
[If behind: What is being cut or deferred]

## Emerging Risks
- [Any new risks identified this sprint]

Agent Consultation

For comprehensive sprint planning, consider consulting:

  • producer
    agent for capacity planning, risk assessment, and cross-department coordination
  • product-manager
    agent for feature prioritization and design readiness assessment

Protocol

  • Question: Reads mode from argument (
    new
    /
    update
    /
    status
    );
    update
    mode asks which tasks changed
  • Options: Skip — mode drives execution path
  • Decision:
    update
    mode — user specifies task IDs, new status, and blocker details
  • Draft: Plan or status report shown in conversation before writing
  • Approval: "May I write to
    production/sprints/sprint-[N].md
    ?"

Output

Deliver exactly:

  • new
    : Sprint file saved to
    production/sprints/sprint-[N].md
    with Must Have / Should Have / Nice to Have tasks, estimates, and risks
  • update
    : In-place edit to current sprint file + update log entry appended
  • status
    : Status report with progress %, completed/in-progress/blocked tables, and burndown assessment
  • Next action: One sentence on what the team should do immediately
