# Sprint Brief Skill
|
|
|
|
Produce a clear, scannable sprint brief that every team member — engineer, designer, PM — can read in under three minutes and understand exactly what we're doing and why.
|
|
|
|
## Required Inputs
|
|
|
|
Ask the user for these if not provided:
|
|
- **Sprint name and number**
|
|
- **Sprint goal** (1-2 sentences — flag if too vague)
|
|
- **Ticket list with owners** (or a description of the work)
|
|
- **Known dependencies or blockers**
|
|
- **Carry-over items from previous sprint** (if any)
|
|
|
|
## Process
|
|
1. Read sprint goal and check it's specific and measurable — flag if it's too vague
|
|
2. Group tickets by theme or feature area
|
|
3. Identify the critical path — which tickets must complete for the sprint goal to be met?
|
|
4. Flag risks: tickets with unclear acceptance criteria, missing designs, unresolved dependencies
|
|
5. Note carry-over items and whether they affect this sprint's goal
|
|
6. **Validate** — Confirm the sprint goal is achievable given the ticket scope and capacity. If the critical path items alone would fill the sprint, flag it as overloaded.
|

|
## Output Structure
|
|
|
|
### Sprint [Number] Brief — [Dates]
|
|
**Sprint Goal:** [1-2 sentences — specific and measurable]
|
|
**Why This Sprint Matters:** [Connect to quarterly OKR in 2-3 sentences]
|
|
|
|
**What We're Building:**
|
|
- [Theme 1]: [tickets and owners]
|
|
- [Theme 2]: [tickets and owners]
|
|
|
|
**Critical Path:** [The 2-3 tickets everything else depends on]
|
|
|
|
**Risks to Flag:**
|
|
- [Risk 1 + mitigation]
|
|
- [Risk 2 + mitigation]
|
|
|
|
**Carry-over from Last Sprint:** [List + impact on current goal]
|
|
|
|
**Definition of Done:** [Specific, agreed criteria for sprint success]
|
|
|
|
## Quality Checks
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Sprint goal is specific enough to score pass/fail at the end of the sprint
|
|
- [ ] Critical path items are named — not just "the important ones"
|
|
- [ ] Every risk has a mitigation or owner (not just "this is a risk")
|
|
- [ ] Carry-over items are connected to their impact on this sprint's goal
|
|
- [ ] Definition of Done is agreed criteria, not a task list
|
|
|
|
## Anti-Patterns
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Do not write a sprint goal as a task list — the goal must be a single outcome-focused statement that can be scored pass/fail
|
|
- [ ] Do not leave the critical path unnamed — "the important tickets" is not a critical path
|
|
- [ ] Do not list risks without a mitigation or owner — a risk without a response is just a worry list
|
|
- [ ] Do not ignore carry-over items' impact on this sprint's capacity and goal
|
|
- [ ] Do not write a Definition of Done that mixes task completion with outcome criteria — they must be observable and agreed before the sprint starts
