Story: Sprint health review — System 2 analysis
Table of Contents
This page documents a story in Sprint 19. It captures the goal, current status, acceptance criteria, and the tasks that compose it.
Goal
Periodic System 2 health checks for sprint 19 using the
sprint-reviewer skill. Each review produces a structured health
report written into sprint.org under * Health Review, covering
goal alignment, load, PR velocity, story/task balance, focus signal,
and an overall red/amber/green verdict. Reviews are deliberately slow
and critical — they question whether stories serve sprint goals and
whether the team is focused — rather than merely summarising status.

Acceptance
- Each invocation of
sprint-reviewerproduces a* Health Reviewsection written intosprint.orgcovering:- Goal alignment — story coverage per sprint goal; uncovered goals and stories with no clear goal flagged.
- Sprint load — commit count, elapsed days, commits/day, projected total; verdict against ≤ 300 commit / ≤ 7 day targets.
- PR velocity — PRs merged per day, open PRs, WIP accumulation.
- Story and task balance — undecomposed stories, longest-open STARTED stories, DONE/total ratio.
- Focus signal — simultaneously STARTED stories; cross-cutting themes.
- Overall verdict — red/amber/green per dimension, one-paragraph narrative.
- The section is idempotent: re-running replaces the existing block.
- Each review round is recorded in a dedicated task with the full findings
in
* Result; only a short summary link remains insprint.org.

Decisions
- Uses the existing Sprint health review — System 2 analysis pattern established in sprint 18; no new tooling required.
- Full review content lives in the task
* Resultsection, not insprint.org, to keep the sprint doc concise.
Out of scope
- Automated remediation of story or task state.
- Historical comparison across sprints.
- Blocking CI or PRs on health verdicts.
