# Sprint Setup Workflow

## Overview

The Sprint Setup workflow guides you through initializing and configuring a new sprint. It covers vision setting, backlog population, prioritization, and sprint creation.

## When to Use

- Starting a new project
- Beginning a new development cycle
- Organizing work for the team
- Planning iterations

## Steps

### Step 1: Vision Setting
**Agent:** sprint-master
**Command:** `/sprint:vision-set`
**Duration:** 15-30 minutes

Define or review vision:
- Set product vision
- Define sprint goals
- Identify key outcomes
- Align team direction

**Output:** Vision documented

### Step 2: Backlog Population
**Agent:** planner
**Command:** `/sprint:backlog-add`
**Duration:** 30-60 minutes

Add backlog items:
- Create user stories
- Define tasks
- Estimate effort
- Set acceptance criteria

**Output:** Populated backlog

### Step 3: Prioritization
**Agent:** sprint-master
**Command:** `/sprint:backlog-prioritize`
**Duration:** 15-30 minutes

Prioritize items:
- Apply prioritization framework
- Balance value vs effort
- Consider dependencies
- Assign priorities

**Output:** Prioritized backlog

### Step 4: Sprint Creation
**Agent:** sprint-master
**Command:** `/sprint:sprint-new`
**Duration:** 10-15 minutes

Create sprint:
- Set sprint duration
- Define sprint goal
- Select items for sprint
- Assign capacity

**Output:** Sprint created

### Step 5: Sprint Start
**Agent:** sprint-master
**Command:** `/sprint:sprint-start`
**Duration:** 5-10 minutes

Start sprint:
- Kick off sprint
- Assign initial tasks
- Set up tracking
- Communicate start

**Output:** Sprint started

## Quality Gates

- [ ] Vision documented and clear
- [ ] Backlog items have estimates
- [ ] Priorities assigned
- [ ] Sprint created with goal
- [ ] Team notified

## Sprint Structure

```
Sprint Setup Structure
======================

.omgkit/sprints/
├── vision.yaml        # Product vision
├── backlog.yaml       # Product backlog
└── sprint-001.yaml    # Current sprint

Sprint Item Format:
- id: unique identifier
- title: brief description
- type: feature|bugfix|task
- priority: high|medium|low
- estimate: story points
- status: todo|in-progress|done
```

## Tips

- Keep sprints short (1-2 weeks)
- Don't over-commit capacity
- Include buffer for unknowns
- Review vision regularly
- Document decisions

## Example Usage

```bash
# Set up initial sprint
/workflow:sprint-setup

# After vision and backlog exist
/sprint:sprint-new "Sprint 1: Core Features"
```
