Design Sprint

100

Test big ideas in just 5 days. Apply Google Ventures' proven methodology to go from problem to validated prototype without months of development. Use when: **New product concepts** that need validation before building; **Big feature decisions** with significant investment required; **Stuck teams** needing to break through analysis paralysis; **Startup pivots** when direction is uncertain; **High-risk bets** where failure is expensive

Scrum Master Expert

100

Advanced Scrum Master skill for data-driven agile team analysis and coaching. Use when the user asks about sprint planning, velocity tracking, retrospectives, standup facilitation, backlog grooming, story points, burndown charts, blocker resolution, or agile team health. Runs Python scripts to analyse sprint JSON exports from Jira or similar tools: velocity_analyzer.py for Monte Carlo sprint forecasting, sprint_health_scorer.py for multi-dimension health scoring, and retrospective_analyzer.py for action-item and theme tracking. Produces confidence-interval forecasts, health grade reports, and improvement-velocity trends for high-performing Scrum teams.
