Sprint Status Workflow

Goal: Summarize sprint status, surface risks, and recommend the next workflow action.

Your Role: You are a Developer providing clear, actionable sprint visibility. No time estimates — focus on status, risks, and next steps.

Conventions

• Bare paths (e.g. checklist.md) resolve from the skill root.
• {skill-root} resolves to this skill's installed directory (where customize.toml lives).
• {project-root}-prefixed paths resolve from the project working directory.
• {skill-name} resolves to the skill directory's basename.

On Activation

Step 1: Resolve the Workflow Block

Run: python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/tools/lib/resolve-customization.py --skill {skill-root} --key workflow

If the script fails, resolve the workflow block yourself by reading these three files in base → team → user order and applying the same structural merge rules as the resolver:

1. {skill-root}/customize.toml — defaults
2. {project-root}/.mighty-powers/custom/{skill-name}.toml — team overrides
3. {project-root}/.mighty-powers/custom/{skill-name}.user.toml — personal overrides

Any missing file is skipped. Scalars override, tables deep-merge, arrays of tables keyed by code or id replace matching entries and append new entries, and all other arrays append.

Step 2: Execute Prepend Steps

Execute each entry in {workflow.activation_steps_prepend} in order before proceeding.

Step 3: Load Persistent Facts

Treat every entry in {workflow.persistent_facts} as foundational context you carry for the rest of the workflow run. Entries prefixed file: are paths or globs under {project-root} — load the referenced contents as facts. All other entries are facts verbatim.

Step 4: Load Config

Load config from {project-root}/.mighty-powers/config.yaml and resolve:

• project_name, user_name
• communication_language, document_output_language
• implementation_artifacts
• date as system-generated current datetime
• project_context = **/project-context.md (load if exists)
• YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT in your Agent communication style with the config {communication_language}

Step 5: Greet the User

Greet {user_name}, speaking in {communication_language}.

Step 6: Execute Append Steps

Execute each entry in {workflow.activation_steps_append} in order.

Activation is complete. If activation_steps_prepend or activation_steps_append were non-empty, confirm every entry was executed in order before proceeding. Do not begin the main workflow until all activation steps have been completed.

Paths

Execution

Set mode = {{mode}} if provided by caller; otherwise mode = "interactive" Jump to Step 20 Jump to Step 30 Continue to Step 1 Load {project_context} for project-wide patterns and conventions (if exists) Try {sprint_status_file} sprint-status.yaml not found. Run ``mp:sprint-planning`` to generate it, then rerun sprint-status. Exit workflow Continue to Step 2 Read the FULL file: {sprint_status_file} Parse fields: generated, last_updated, project, project_key, tracking_system, story_location Parse development_status map. Classify keys: - Epics: keys starting with "epic-" (and not ending with "-retrospective") - Retrospectives: keys ending with "-retrospective" - Stories: everything else (e.g., 1-2-login-form) Map legacy story status "drafted" → "ready-for-dev" Count story statuses: backlog, ready-for-dev, in-progress, review, done Map legacy epic status "contexted" → "in-progress" Count epic statuses: backlog, in-progress, done Count retrospective statuses: optional, done

Validate all statuses against known values:

• Valid story statuses: backlog, ready-for-dev, in-progress, review, done, drafted (legacy)

• Valid epic statuses: backlog, in-progress, done, contexted (legacy)

• Valid retrospective statuses: optional, done

Unknown status detected: {{#each invalid_entries}}

• {{key}}: "{{status}}" (not recognized) {{/each}}

Valid statuses:

• Stories: backlog, ready-for-dev, in-progress, review, done
• Epics: backlog, in-progress, done
• Retrospectives: optional, done How should these be corrected? {{#each invalid_entries}} {{@index}}. {{key}}: "{{status}}" → [select valid status] {{/each}}

Enter corrections (e.g., "1=in-progress, 2=backlog") or "skip" to continue without fixing: Update sprint-status.yaml with corrected values Re-parse the file with corrected statuses

Detect risks:

• IF any story has status "review": suggest mp:code-review
• IF any story has status "in-progress" AND no stories have status "ready-for-dev": recommend staying focused on active story
• IF all epics have status "backlog" AND no stories have status "ready-for-dev": prompt mp:create-story
• IF last_updated timestamp is more than 7 days old (or last_updated is missing, fall back to generated): warn "sprint-status.yaml may be stale"
• IF any story key doesn't match an epic pattern (e.g., story "5-1-..." but no "epic-5"): warn "orphaned story detected"
• IF any epic has status in-progress but has no associated stories: warn "in-progress epic has no stories"

Pick the next recommended workflow using priority: When selecting "first" story: sort by epic number, then story number (e.g., 1-1 before 1-2 before 2-1) 1. If any story status == in-progress → recommend `dev-story` for the first in-progress story 2. Else if any story status == review → recommend `code-review` for the first review story 3. Else if any story status == ready-for-dev → recommend `dev-story` 4. Else if any story status == backlog → recommend `create-story` 5. Else if any retrospective status == optional → recommend `retrospective` 6. Else → All implementation items done; congratulate the user - you both did amazing work together! Store selected recommendation as: next_story_id, next_workflow_id, next_agent (DEV) ## Sprint Status

• Project: {{project}} ({{project_key}})
• Tracking: {{tracking_system}}
• Status file: {sprint_status_file}

Stories: backlog {{count_backlog}}, ready-for-dev {{count_ready}}, in-progress {{count_in_progress}}, review {{count_review}}, done {{count_done}}

Epics: backlog {{epic_backlog}}, in-progress {{epic_in_progress}}, done {{epic_done}}

Next Recommendation: /bmad:bmm:workflows:{{next_workflow_id}} ({{next_story_id}})

{{#if risks}} Risks: {{#each risks}}

• {{this}} {{/each}} {{/if}}

Pick an option: 1) Run recommended workflow now 2) Show all stories grouped by status 3) Show raw sprint-status.yaml 4) Exit Choice: Run `/bmad:bmm:workflows:{{next_workflow_id}}`. If the command targets a story, set `story_key={{next_story_id}}` when prompted. ### Stories by Status - In Progress: {{stories_in_progress}} - Review: {{stories_in_review}} - Ready for Dev: {{stories_ready_for_dev}} - Backlog: {{stories_backlog}} - Done: {{stories_done}} Display the full contents of {sprint_status_file} Run: `python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/tools/lib/resolve-customization.py --skill {skill-root} --key workflow.on_complete` — if the resolved value is non-empty, follow it as the final terminal instruction before exiting.
