    Sprint Planning & Backlog Refiner — Definition of Ready + Capacity Gate

    1

    Refines each backlog story against a Definition of Ready, splits oversized work, maps blockers, and issues a COMMIT / COMMIT-WITH-RISK / OVER-COMMITTED verdict against real sprint capacity.

    Sprint Planning & Backlog Refiner — Definition of Ready + Capacity Gate

    Sprint Planning & Backlog Refiner — Definition of Ready + Capacity Gate

    Example session with this skill installed

    Product: Inkline (creative proofing for agencies)
    Sprint 41 · 2 weeks · capacity 13 pts (historical ~16; Jin OOO 3 days)
    Sprint goal: clients comment on proofs; agencies compare versions

    Backlog
    S1 Pin comments on PDF (5) — AC present
    S2 Side-by-side version compare (13) — no AC
    S3 Magic-link client access (5) — blocked: Auth tenant not provisioned
    S4 “Improve upload performance” — unsized, vague
    S5 Resolve/reopen comment threads (3) — AC present
    S6 Require client approval before Final (5) — AC present, Figma missing
    S7 Download PDF + comments summary (8) — rough idea
    S8 Filter comments open/resolved/mine (2) — AC present

    Ask: refine DoR, splits, dependencies, capacity-aware commitment. Do not write to Jira.

    Sprint Planning & Backlog Refinement

    1. Sprint Summary

    FieldValue
    SprintSprint 41 (2 weeks)
    Capacity13 points (Jin OOO adjustment; historical full-staff ~16)
    Stories refined8
    Ready / Needs-refinement / Split3 / 3 / 2
    Committed points10 of 13 (READY only)
    Sprint commitmentCOMMIT-WITH-RISK

    Why COMMIT-WITH-RISK: 10 ≤ 13 (not over capacity), but version-compare (sprint goal) is not READY without a split, S6 lacks Figma, and reduced capacity leaves little bug buffer.

    2. Story Readiness

    IDPtsReadinessWhy
    S1 Pin comments5READYClear value + testable AC
    S2 Version compare13SPLITToo large vs capacity / small-enough rule
    S3 Magic-link access5NEEDS-REFINEMENTAuth tenant blocker
    S4 Upload performance—NEEDS-REFINEMENTVague, UNSIZED, no metric
    S5 Resolve threads3READYClear + testable AC
    S6 Require approval5NEEDS-REFINEMENTMissing Figma asset
    S7 PDF + comments export8SPLITMulti-concern; split recommended
    S8 Filter comments2READYClear + testable AC

    3. Refined READY stories (commit these)

    S1 (5) — pin comments: pin at coordinates; author/time/page visible; pins persist
    S5 (3) — resolve/reopen threads with Open filter behavior
    S8 (2) — filters for Open / Resolved / Mine
    READY total = 10 points

    4. Needs refinement (do not commit yet)

    IDFix
    S3Provision Auth tenant + AC for expiry
    S4Rewrite with measurable p95 upload target + size
    S6Attach Figma approval modal

    5. Split suggestions

    S2 (13) → S2a side-by-side shell · S2b synced navigation · S2c highlights
    S7 (8) → S7a download PDF · S7b summary page · S7c merged export

    6. Dependency map

    • S3 blocked by Auth tenant inkline-preview
    • S6 blocked by missing Figma
    • S7b/c richer after S1 pins land (soft)

    7. Commitment analysis

    Capacity13
    READY commitS1+S5+S8 = 10
    Headroom3
    VerdictCOMMIT-WITH-RISK

    Do not pull: whole S2/S7, S3, S4, S6.
    If PO forces compare: refine S2a only, then descope S8 (or accept OVER-COMMITTED if 10+5 > 13).

    8. Sprint Backlog JSON

    Machine-readable stories[], readiness, splits, dependency_map, descope_recommendations,
    committed_points: 10, commitment: "COMMIT-WITH-RISK", assumptions labeled
    (capacity 13 not invented; split points need team confirm).

    Connects securely to your tools. The creator never sees your data.

    About this skill

    The problem

    • Sprint planning fails when vague stories, missing acceptance criteria, and silent blockers get committed as if they were ready.
    • Oversized items (13+ points) hide in the sprint and blow the goal.
    • Teams need a capacity-honest commit — not a wish list.

    What it does

    • Scores each story READY, NEEDS-REFINEMENT, or SPLIT against a Definition of Ready.
    • Validates or proposes testable acceptance criteria (Given/When/Then where useful).
    • Suggests vertical-slice splits for oversized work.
    • Maps dependencies (“blocked by”).
    • Commits only READY work and returns COMMIT, COMMIT-WITH-RISK, or OVER-COMMITTED with descope recommendations.

    Frameworks & tools

    • Works with any backlog format (Jira export, Linear list, markdown stories).
    • Story-point or capacity-based planning; stack-agnostic product work.
    • Outputs markdown + JSON you paste into the tracker — no SaaS integration required.

    Why this beats prompting it yourself

    • Explicit DoR gate so “Improve performance” cannot slip in as READY.
    • Only READY points count toward commitment math.
    • Deterministic commit rules (over capacity → OVER-COMMITTED).
    • Named descope order when overloaded.
    • Anti-fabrication: UNSIZED stays null; assumptions labeled.
