sprint-operations

sprint-operations is a skill for Claude Code from rampstackco/claude-skills-pm. It costs 188 tokens per session (2,659 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of sprint-operations, MIT.

A delivery-team operations skill for planning and measuring sprints, which are fixed work periods, and running their meetings. It covers capacity, estimation, metrics, standups, refinement, reviews, retrospectives, and reports.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan a sprint, run its ceremonies, measure team progress, or prepare sprint and quarterly reports.
Why use it?
Teams can plan and report from guesses or inconsistent routines. This derives reports and measurements from tracker data and gives the delivery cycle a consistent structure.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

sprint-operations scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 177 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Sprint Operations

Run the measurement and ceremony layer of a delivery team so planning is grounded in history and reporting is derived from the tracker, not typed in. Tracker-agnostic: works with Jira, Linear, GitHub Issues, or your tracker of choice.


When to use

  • Setting up the metric set for a new or inherited team
  • Planning a sprint and checking it against real capacity
  • Running standup, refinement, review, or retro with a consistent template
  • Answering "how is the team doing?" with numbers instead of adjectives
  • Writing the sprint report or the quarterly rollup
  • Deriving a points-to-hours ratio for finance
  • Measuring a team where some lanes are AI coding agents

When NOT to use

  • Writing the tickets that go into the sprint (use ticket-authoring)
  • Writing the narrative of a retrospective or postmortem (use after-action-report)
  • Setting objectives and key results (use okr-design)
  • Deciding what ships this quarter (use roadmap-planning)
  • Writing the handoff for an agent lane (use dispatch-authoring)
  • Shaping the readout for executives (use stakeholder-communication)

Required inputs

  • Tracker access or an export with created, started, done, reopened, and sprint fields per ticket
  • The team roster and planned availability for the sprint
  • The last three to six sprints of history, if they exist
  • The team's estimation scale (points, t-shirt sizes, or counts)
  • Finance requirements for hours, if the team capitalizes development

If there is no history, say so. The first three sprints set the baseline. Do not invent one.


The framework: 4 parts

Part 1: The measurement set

Eight metrics. Each is derived from tracker timestamps and fields. None is typed into a spreadsheet by hand.

Metric One-line definition Computed as
Cycle time How long work takes once started done date minus started date, per ticket; report the median and 85th percentile
Lead time How long a request waits plus takes done date minus created date, per ticket; median and 85th percentile
Throughput How much finishes count of tickets moved to done in the period
WIP How much is in flight count of tickets in any started, not-done state, sampled daily
Carryover percent How much of the plan spilled committed tickets not done at sprint end, divided by committed tickets
Planned vs unplanned ratio How much of the sprint was the plan done tickets committed at planning, divided by all done tickets
Rework rate How often done was not done tickets reopened after done, divided by tickets done
Estimate accuracy How well sizing predicts effort per size bucket, the spread of cycle times; tighter is better

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
