Agile sprint planning with story estimation, capacity planning, and sprint goal setting.
What is sprint-planner?
Sprint Planner helps scrum masters and agile teams plan sprint iterations by estimating user stories, calculating team capacity, and defining sprint goals. Use it when organizing sprints, assigning story points, managing backlogs, or identifying sprint risks and dependencies.
- Estimate user stories using Modified Fibonacci story points (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 20)
- Calculate team capacity based on team size, available days, hours, and focus factor (0.6-0.8)
- Track velocity from past 3-5 sprints to inform sprint planning
- Define clear sprint goals and objectives
- Organize sprint backlogs with story assignments and dependencies
- Identify and mitigate sprint risks
How to install sprint-planner
npx skills add https://github.com/shubhamsaboo/awesome-llm-apps --skill sprint-plannerHow to use sprint-planner
- 1.Gather your product backlog items and team availability for the sprint period
- 2.Calculate team capacity using the formula: (Team Size × Available Days × Hours per Day × Focus Factor 0.6-0.8)
- 3.Estimate each backlog item using Modified Fibonacci story points
- 4.Commit stories to the sprint until capacity is reached, prioritizing by business value
- 5.Define a clear sprint goal that aligns committed stories
- 6.Document sprint backlog with story IDs, points, owners, and dependencies
- 7.List potential risks and mitigation strategies
- 8.Establish Definition of Done criteria for the sprint
Use cases
- Planning a 2-week sprint for a development team with 5 engineers
- Estimating story points for a backlog of 20+ user stories before sprint kickoff
- Calculating team capacity when team members have partial availability or planned time off
- Identifying dependencies between stories to sequence work and reduce blockers
- Setting sprint goals aligned with product roadmap priorities
- Scrum masters
- Agile team leads
- Product owners
- Development teams practicing Scrum or Kanban
sprint-planner FAQ
Use 0.6-0.8 depending on team interruptions and overhead. Use 0.6 for teams with frequent meetings or support duties; use 0.8 for focused teams with minimal interruptions.
Start by picking a reference story (e.g., a typical 3-point story), then estimate other stories relative to it. Adjust estimates during sprint retrospectives as the team gains experience.
Use the average velocity from the last 3-5 sprints for planning. If velocity is unstable, investigate blockers and process issues. Conservative planning using lower velocity is safer.
Document dependencies clearly in the sprint backlog. Schedule dependent stories sequentially or in parallel if possible. Flag high-risk dependencies in the Risks & Mitigation section.
Yes, the framework adapts to Kanban and other agile approaches. Focus on capacity planning and story estimation regardless of iteration length.
