Product Backlog Health Check
Assess the backlog's quality.
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
Assess my backlog. Sample of backlog items, top 20 with descriptions: [BACKLOG_ITEMS]. Team size and sprint length: [TEAM_SPRINT]. Current problems: [PROBLEMS]. Rate each item for clarity, size, value, and readiness with a score, and show a summary table. Identify items that are too large, vague, or duplicate, and propose splits using techniques such as splitting by workflow step or by data variation. Check the backlog's shape: how many items are ready for the next two sprints. Recommend refinement sessions, definition of ready criteria, and a method for pruning old items. Provide a one-page health scorecard. Add a list of ten questions for the product owner about priorities and stakeholders, and a way to visualise the backlog as ready, nearly ready, and unclear in a simple chart in text. Provide a two-week plan to bring the next sprint's items to ready, and warning signs that the backlog has become a wish list.
