Purpose

Orchestrate the complete agile delivery cycle — from sprint planning through execution, review, and retrospective — ensuring consistent cadence, quality gates, and continuous improvement.

Application

Sprint Cadence (2-week example)

Day	Activity	Skill	Duration
Day 1	Sprint Planning	`skills/execution/sprint-planning-facilitator/SKILL.md`	45-60 min
Daily	Standup	`skills/execution/standup-optimizer/SKILL.md`	15 min
Mid-sprint	Backlog Refinement	`skills/planning/epic-breakdown-advisor/SKILL.md`	30-45 min
Day 9	Sprint Review (Demo)	`skills/execution/sprint-review-template/SKILL.md`	30-45 min
Day 10	Retrospective	`skills/execution/retrospective-facilitator/SKILL.md`	30-45 min
Ongoing	Stakeholder Updates	`skills/execution/stakeholder-update/SKILL.md`	15 min/week
Ongoing	Blocker Resolution	`skills/execution/blocker-resolution-advisor/SKILL.md`	As needed
Ongoing	Tech Debt Tracking	`skills/execution/technical-debt-tracker/SKILL.md`	As needed

Quality Gates

## Quality Gates per Sprint

### Pre-Sprint
- [ ] Sprint goal defined and agreed
- [ ] All stories have acceptance criteria
- [ ] Capacity confirmed (accounting for PTO, tech debt allocation)
- [ ] Dependencies identified and tracked

### During Sprint
- [ ] Blockers surfaced within 24 hours (not hidden)
- [ ] PR reviews within 1 business day
- [ ] Scope changes go through PM (no silent scope creep)

### End of Sprint
- [ ] All "Done" stories meet Definition of Done
- [ ] Demo shows working software, not slides
- [ ] Metrics captured and reviewed
- [ ] Retro action items created with owners

Anti-Patterns to Monitor

Anti-Pattern	Signal	Fix
Sprint stuffing	Velocity drops, carryover rises	Plan to 80% capacity
No retro actions	Same problems repeat	Track actions, review next retro
Demo theater	Stakeholders uninformed	Demo from user's perspective
Standup monologues	30+ min standups	Walk the board, timebox
Ghosted blockers	Team works around instead of escalating	Create escalation culture
