sprint-brief Generate a structured sprint brief from sprint data and goals. Use when asked to write a sprint brief, create a sprint summary, document sprint goals and scope, or produce a team-facing sprint overview. Produces a scannable brief with sprint goal, rationale, grouped work, critical path, risks, and definition of done.

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
