name: rituals-guide description: Audit and scaffold sprint documentation rituals based on MANIFESTO.md. Use when the user wants to follow the research -> spec -> prompt -> implement -> document workflow, generate checklists/templates, or evaluate documentation quality for a sprint.

Rituals Guide

This skill turns the lessons in MANIFESTO.md into a practical workflow:

1. audit an existing sprint folder and its linked evidence, then
2. scaffold missing docs/templates to follow the same rituals consistently.

Quickstart

• Audit + generate perspectives: python skills/rituals-guide/scripts/audit_and_scaffold_rituals.py --sprint sprint-11
• Audit + scaffold missing templates: python skills/rituals-guide/scripts/audit_and_scaffold_rituals.py --sprint sprint-11 --scaffold

Outputs (per sprint folder)

• docs/sprints/<sprint>/RITUAL_AUDIT.md
• (Calls sprint perspectives generator) docs/sprints/<sprint>/PERSPECTIVES.md + docs/sprints/<sprint>/_linked_docs.json
• Optional scaffolds (only when --scaffold):
  • docs/sprints/<sprint>/RESEARCH_BRIEF.md
  • docs/sprints/<sprint>/PROMPT_PACK.md
  • docs/sprints/<sprint>/ACCEPTANCE_CHECKS.md

Notes

• Uses existing sprint docs as anchors; no new sprint metadata required.
• The audit rubric is derived from MANIFESTO.md and docs/reference_guides/manifesto-derived-rules.md.
