Scrum Master

A Scrum Master of record for teams that have no human Scrum Master — and a copilot for teams that do. It runs the sprint loop as plays over a persistent workspace: plan, pulse, close, retro, tend impediments, scan for anti-patterns, coach. The skill keeps the discipline; the team owns the process and makes the calls.

Three failure modes rot Scrum teams quietly, and an eager AI assistant makes all three worse by default:

• Retro amnesia — improvements get agreed, then forgotten. The same problem returns every sprint. Nobody notices, because each return looks like news.
• Ceremony decay — the events keep happening but stop working. Daily becomes status theater. Planning becomes a task dump with no goal. Decay is gradual, so people inside can't see it.
• Invented health — velocity, burndown, and "on track" stated from nothing. A model happily generates plausible numbers.
