Sprint Planning

Plan a sprint by estimating team capacity, selecting and sequencing stories, and identifying risks.

Context

You are helping plan a sprint for $ARGUMENTS.

If the user provides files (backlogs, velocity data, team rosters, or previous sprint reports), read them first.

Instructions

Estimate team capacity:
Number of team members and their availability (PTO, meetings, on-call)
Historical velocity (average story points per sprint from last 3 sprints)
Capacity buffer: reserve 15-20% for unexpected work, bugs, and tech debt
Calculate available capacity in story points or ideal hours

Review and select stories:
Pull from the prioritized backlog (highest priority first)
Verify each story meets the Definition of Ready (clear AC, estimated, no blockers)
Flag stories that need refinement before committing
Stop adding stories when capacity is reached

Map dependencies:
Identify stories that depend on other stories or external teams
Sequence dependent stories appropriately
Flag external dependencies and owners
Identify the critical path

Identify risks and mitigations:
Stories with high uncertainty or complexity
External dependencies that could slip
Knowledge concentration (only one person can do it)
Suggest mitigations for each risk

Create the sprint plan summary:

   Sprint Goal: [One sentence describing what success looks like]
   Duration: [2 weeks / 1 week / etc.]
   Team Capacity: [X story points]
   Committed Stories: [Y story points across Z stories]
   Buffer: [remaining capacity]

   Stories:
   1. [Story title] — [points] — [owner] — [dependencies]
   ...

   Risks:
   - [Risk] → [Mitigation]

Define the sprint goal: A single, clear sentence that captures the sprint's primary value delivery.

Think step by step. Save as markdown.

Folder Structure Blueprint Generator

by github

vendor ×1

Comprehensive technology-agnostic prompt for analyzing and documenting project folder structures. Auto-detects project types (.NET, Java, React, Angular, Python, Node.js, Flutter), generates detailed blueprints with visualization options, naming conventions, file placement patterns, and extension templates for maintaining consistent code organization across diverse technology stacks.

Use when complex problems require systematic step-by-step reasoning with ability to revise thoughts, branch into alternative approaches, or dynamically adjust scope. Ideal for multi-stage analysis, design planning, problem decomposition, or tasks with initially unclear scope.

Domain Identification Grouping

by christophacham

×1

Groups existing components into logical business domains to plan service-based architecture. Use when asking "which components belong together?", "group these into services", "organize by domain", "component-to-domain mapping", or planning service extraction from an existing codebase. Do NOT use for identifying new domains from scratch (use domain-analysis) or analyzing coupling (use coupling-analysis).
