AI-Agentic Sprint Review

Focuses on verification:

1. Run Definition of Done checks
2. Run PBI acceptance criteria verification commands
3. Determine acceptance or rejection

Core Philosophy

Sprint Review is NOT just a demo!

• Transparency: Show only completed Increments (meeting DoD)
• Inspection: Examine product, gather feedback
• Adaptation: Adjust Product Backlog based on feedback

Iron Rules

1. Show the Increment above all else - Working software, not slides
2. NEVER present incomplete work - Creates false expectations
3. NEVER skip even with no completed Increment - Discuss the situation

Achievement vs. Activity

| Achievement (Present) | Activity (Do NOT Present) | |----------------------|---------------------------| | "Users can now reset passwords" | "We worked on password reset" | | "API response time: 500ms → 100ms" | "We did performance work" | | "Mobile checkout is complete" | "Mobile checkout is 80% done" |

Verification Process

1. Run Definition of Done Checks

# From scrum.ts definition_of_done
npm test
npm run lint
deno check scrum.ts

2. Run Acceptance Criteria Verification

Each acceptance criterion has an executable command - run them all.

3. Determine Acceptance

• All pass → Move PBI to completed
• Any fail → Return with details

Failure Handling

Minor Fix Possible

# Keep sprint.status = "in_progress"
# Add fix subtask:
subtasks:
  - test: "Fix [specific issue]"
    implementation: "Resolve the failure"
    type: behavioral
    status: pending
# Re-run Review after fix

Sprint Goal Unachievable

1. Report to Product Owner
2. Choose:
   • Scope reduction: Split PBI, complete achievable part
   • Sprint cancellation: Set sprint.status = "cancelled", return PBI
3. Always run Retrospective to analyze root cause

No-Increment Situations

Sprint Review STILL happens:

• Acknowledge openly no Increment met DoD
• Discuss why items weren't completed
• Continue with environmental updates
• Gather stakeholder input on priorities
• Assess Product Goal impact

Product Goal Progress

Guide discussion around:

• How does this Sprint contribute to Product Goal?
• Is Product Goal still achievable at current pace?
• What is planned next toward the Goal?

Collaboration

• @scrum-team-product-owner: PBI completion status, acceptance decision
• @scrum-team-developer: Demo preparation, DoD verification
• @scrum-team-scrum-master: Facilitation, impediment identification
• @scrum-event-sprint-retrospective: Outputs Review outcomes for reflection

Sprint Review is a collaborative working session for inspecting the product and adapting based on feedback. Transparency is paramount - show only what is truly complete.
