Sprint Progress Report
Query Jira to build a detailed sprint progress report including velocity, burndown, completion rates, and blockers.
Instructions
Phase 1: Sprint Data Collection (Jira Agent)
- •Identify the current sprint:
- •Get the active sprint from the team's Jira board
- •Collect sprint name, start date, end date, and goal
- •Fetch all sprint issues:
- •Stories, tasks, bugs, and subtasks in the sprint
- •For each: key, summary, status, assignee, story points, priority, labels
- •Fetch sprint history (for velocity):
- •Last 3-5 completed sprints
- •Committed vs. completed story points per sprint
Phase 2: Metrics Calculation
- •Burndown Metrics:
- •Total committed story points
- •Completed story points
- •Remaining story points
- •Percentage complete
- •Days remaining in sprint
- •Projected completion (on track / at risk / behind)
- •Velocity:
- •Average velocity over last 3-5 sprints
- •Current sprint pace vs. average
- •Velocity trend (increasing, stable, decreasing)
- •Issue Distribution:
- •By status (To Do, In Progress, In Review, Done)
- •By type (Story, Bug, Task)
- •By assignee (workload balance)
- •By priority (Critical, High, Medium, Low)
Phase 3: Blocker & Risk Analysis
- •Identify blockers:
- •Issues with
blockedstatus orblockerlabel - •Issues with no activity for >2 days while In Progress
- •Issues with unresolved dependencies
- •Issues with
- •Identify risks:
- •High-priority items still in To Do with <3 days remaining
- •Unassigned items
- •Items added mid-sprint (scope creep)
- •Items removed from sprint (scope reduction)

## Sprint Progress Report **Sprint**: Sprint 24 - "Platform Reliability" **Period**: Feb 3 - Feb 14, 2026 | **Days Remaining**: 5 **Sprint Goal**: Improve platform monitoring and reduce incident response time ### Summary | Metric | Value | |--------|-------| | Committed | 34 story points (15 issues) | | Completed | 21 story points (9 issues) | | Remaining | 13 story points (6 issues) | | Completion | 62% | | Projection | On Track (avg velocity: 32 pts) | ### Burndown Status - **Ideal pace**: 24.3 pts should be done by now - **Actual pace**: 21 pts completed - **Gap**: 3.3 pts behind ideal - recoverable with current velocity ### Issue Breakdown | Status | Count | Story Points | |--------|-------|-------------| | Done | 9 | 21 | | In Review | 2 | 5 | | In Progress | 3 | 5 | | To Do | 1 | 3 | ### Velocity Trend (Last 5 Sprints) | Sprint | Committed | Completed | Rate | |--------|-----------|-----------|------| | Sprint 23 | 30 | 28 | 93% | | Sprint 22 | 35 | 32 | 91% | | Sprint 21 | 28 | 30 | 107% | | **Average** | **31** | **30** | **97%** | ### Blockers & Risks 1. **BLOCKER**: PLAT-456 "Fix flaky integration test" - blocked by environment issue, 3 days stale 2. **RISK**: PLAT-489 "Add PagerDuty agent pagination" (5 pts) - still in To Do with 5 days left ### Team Workload | Assignee | Done | In Progress | Remaining | |----------|------|-------------|-----------| | @dev1 | 8 pts | 3 pts | 2 pts | | @dev2 | 8 pts | 2 pts | 0 pts | | @dev3 | 5 pts | 0 pts | 3 pts | | Unassigned | 0 | 0 | 8 pts |
Examples
- •"Generate a sprint progress report for the current sprint"
- •"Show me sprint velocity and burndown"
- •"Are we on track to complete this sprint?"
- •"What are the blockers in the current sprint?"
- •"Show team workload distribution for this sprint"
Guidelines
- •Always calculate projected completion based on historical velocity, not optimistic estimates
- •Flag sprints as "at risk" if completion rate is below 80% at the midpoint
- •Highlight scope changes (issues added or removed mid-sprint) separately
- •If story points are not used, fall back to issue count
- •Keep the report scannable - lead with the summary, details below
- •Include the sprint goal prominently so progress can be evaluated against intent
