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

Create a user story map that lays out activities, steps, tasks, and release slices. Use when planning a workflow, backlog, or MVP around the user journey.

Plan a sprint by refining backlog items, defining a sprint goal, calculating team capacity, selecting items, and decomposing them into tasks. Produces a SPRINT-PLAN.md with goal, selected items, task breakdown, and capacity allocation. Use when starting a new sprint in a Scrum or agile project, re-planning after significant scope change, transitioning from ad-hoc work to structured sprint cadence, or after backlog grooming when items are ready for inclusion.

Plan a sprint with capacity estimation, story selection, dependency mapping, and risk identification. Use when preparing for sprint planning, estimating team capacity, selecting stories, or balancing sprint scope against velocity.

Escape the build trap and endless backlogs. Use Basecamp's methodology to ship meaningful work in 6-week cycles with fixed time, variable scope. Use when: **Product planning** to replace endless backlogs; **Feature development** with clear time boundaries; **Team autonomy** when you want self-directed teams; **Scope management** when projects tend to balloon; **Startup development** with limited resources

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.
