Sprints & Agile
GrowthOS handles full Scrum — sprint creation, AI-powered planning, burndown, velocity, retrospectives, and delivery forecasting.
Sprint lifecycle
Only one sprint per project can be ACTIVE at a time. Activating a new sprint automatically closes the previous one. Sprint state transitions trigger automations and weekly report pushes.
Creating and planning a sprint
Go to your project → Sprints tab → New Sprint. Set a name, sprint goal, start date, and end date.
Click AI Sprint Plan. GrowthOS analyzes your backlog using: task priority, due dates, story points, dependencies, team capacity, and past velocity. It recommends which tasks to commit and shows an overcommit warning if capacity exceeds 110%.
Review the recommended tasks. Add or remove tasks manually from the backlog. When satisfied, click Commit Sprint — this activates the sprint and assigns all recommended tasks.
Sprint goal is auto-generated from the top committed tasks. You can edit it before committing.
Sprint board
The sprint board is a Kanban view scoped only to tasks committed to the active sprint. Columns: NOT_STARTED · IN_PROGRESS · BLOCKED · COMPLETED. Drag tasks between columns to update status in real time.
Delivery forecast
GrowthOS predicts whether your sprint will complete on time:
≥ 70%
On track
50–70%
At risk — amber alert
< 50%
Critical — red alert
When at risk, GrowthOS shows mitigation options:
- Reduce scope by X story points
- Extend sprint by X days
- Unblock N stuck tasks
- Add one engineer — gains X points of capacity
Burndown & velocity charts
Burndown — remaining story points plotted day by day against the ideal burndown line. Divergence early = sprint at risk.
Velocity — story points completed per closed sprint. Trend indicator (↑ improving / ↓ declining / → flat). Used by AI sprint planner to set realistic capacity targets.
Story points & issue types
Every task has a story points field and an issue type (Story / Bug / Task / Epic). Story points drive velocity, burndown, and AI sprint planning capacity math. If story points are not set, GrowthOS falls back to estimate minutes for calculations.
Retrospective
When closing a sprint, fill in the retrospective form: what went well, what didn't, and action items. Notes are saved to the sprint record and visible in sprint history.
Ceremony guide
The Agile tab on every project includes a ceremony checklist — planning, standup, sprint review, and retrospective. Each ceremony shows what to prepare, who should attend, and suggested timebox. Use it as a running guide for new teams.
