Sprint goal

Finish the preview deployment.

Planned

• Sprint goal: J01-9, J01-13, J01-16, J01-31
• Support: J01-93, J01-98
• Admin / frame: J01-72 and J01-94 as the public sprint/mirror step under J01-72

What actually happened

• Partial sprint-goal delivery: J01-16 was completed
• Support delivered: J01-93 and J01-98 were completed
• Admin/frame work delivered: J01-72, J01-96, J01-107, and J01-108 were completed
• The sprint contained 18 issues in total; 7 reached done, 11 stayed open.

Not finished / Carry-over

• Open goal work: J01-9, J01-13, J01-31
• Open admin/frame work: J01-104, J01-109, J01-116
• Open unplanned add-on work: J01-105, J01-111, J01-113, J01-115, J01-117

Scope changes

• Additional work entered the sprint beyond the original planning: J01-96, J01-104, J01-105, J01-107, J01-108, J01-109, J01-111, J01-113, J01-115, J01-116, J01-117
• Five of them were explicitly marked as sprint-unplanned: J01-105, J01-111, J01-113, J01-115, J01-117.

Review

• The sprint goal “Finish the preview deployment” stayed valid, but was only reached in part.
• Most core goal issues stayed open; only J01-16 was completed from the four sprint-goal issues.
• At the same time, substantial support and admin work was delivered and improved the project operation and public traceability.
• The sprint therefore shows a real shift of focus between preview work and building a still-new project and Jira operating model, not a lack of work.

Retro

• Worked well:
  • Support and admin work moved important Jira, mirror, and documentation foundations forward in a durable way.
  • The sprint is no longer silently overdue; it is now closed cleanly in Jira and GitHub Pages.
• Missing:
  • Most of the actual goal issues remained unfinished.
  • Sprint planning was still too narrow for the real spread of work.
• Observed conditions:
  • The project is still in a pre-preview phase, so operational focus shifts more easily than in a more stable product phase.
  • Jira management with AI agents is still new, which made the operating overhead higher and less predictable.
  • New unplanned work entered the sprint and had to stay visible.
  • Special family visits and illness reduced the available work time.
• Consequence:
  • Upcoming sprints need to be planned with more explicit tolerance for deviation in this phase instead of assuming a rigid goal width.

Risks

• Preview work and framework work still compete inside the same sprint.
• Carry-over from Sprint 0 must not silently displace the sprint goal again.
