Planification de sprint avec MCP : transformer les objectifs en tâches scopées

Convert a set of sprint goals into structured tasks in Corcava using MCP. This workflow guide shows you how to break down sprint goals, create tasks with owners, add acceptance criteria, and produce a sprint checklist—all with confirmation patterns to ensure safe task creation.

Ce que ce workflow permet

Sprint planning with MCP transforms high-level goals into actionable tasks:

Résultats clés

  • Goal breakdown: Convert sprint goals into specific, actionable tasks
  • Task creation: Create tasks with titles, descriptions, and assignments
  • Acceptance criteria: Add acceptance criteria as comments on tasks
  • Sprint checklist: Generate a checklist of all sprint tasks
  • Team alignment: Assign tasks to team members with clear ownership

Prérequis

Before using this workflow, ensure you have:

Workflow pas à pas

Step 1: Provide Sprint Goals

Start by providing your sprint goals to the AI assistant:

Sprint Goals Input Prompt

"I have these sprint goals for the next 2 weeks: 1. Implement user authentication system 2. Design and build homepage 3. Set up CI/CD pipeline 4. Write API documentation Convert these into tasks in Corcava. For each goal, break it down into 3-5 specific tasks. Show me the task list first before creating anything."

What the AI does:

  1. Analyzes each sprint goal
  2. Breaks down goals into specific, actionable tasks
  3. Drafts task titles and descriptions
  4. Presents task list for review (no creation yet)

Step 2: Review and Refine Task List

Review the proposed tasks and make adjustments:

Task Refinement Prompt

"For the task list you proposed, I want to make these changes: - Task 'Set up database' should be split into two tasks - Task 'Write tests' should be merged with 'Implement auth' - Add a task for 'Code review process' Update the task list and show me the revised version."

What the AI does:

  1. Modifies task list based on feedback
  2. Shows updated task list
  3. Waits for approval before creating tasks

Step 3: Assign Owners and Set Due Dates

Assign tasks to team members and set sprint deadlines:

Assignment Prompt

"For the sprint tasks, assign owners and set due dates. The sprint ends on [date]. Assign tasks based on team member expertise: - Backend tasks → assign to [Backend Developer] - Frontend tasks → assign to [Frontend Developer] - DevOps tasks → assign to [DevOps Engineer] Show me the assignments before creating tasks."

What the AI does:

  1. Analyzes task types and team member roles
  2. Assigns tasks to appropriate owners
  3. Sets due dates within sprint timeline
  4. Shows assignment plan for review

Step 4: Add Acceptance Criteria

Add acceptance criteria as comments on tasks:

Acceptance Criteria Prompt

"For each task in the sprint, propose acceptance criteria. Add them as comments on the tasks. But first, show me what comments you'll add to each task. Wait for CONFIRM before adding any comments."

What the AI does:

  1. Analyzes each task to determine acceptance criteria
  2. Drafts acceptance criteria comments
  3. Shows preview: "Task: [Title], Comment: [Acceptance Criteria]"
  4. Waits for "CONFIRM"
  5. Only after confirmation, calls add_task_comment for each task

Step 5: Create Tasks (with Confirmation)

⚠️ Always Confirm Before Creating Tasks

Never let AI create tasks without explicit confirmation. Use this pattern:

  • Preview First: Show all tasks that will be created
  • Confirmation Token: Require "CONFIRM" or "CONFIRM ALL" before creating
  • Review Details: Display title, description, assignee, due date for each task
  • Batch Confirmation: For multiple tasks, show full list and require "CONFIRM ALL"

Safe Task Creation Prompt

"Now create all the sprint tasks in Corcava. But first, show me exactly what you'll create: - List all tasks with title, description, assignee, due date, and project - Show me the complete list - Wait for me to type CONFIRM ALL before creating anything - If I don't type CONFIRM ALL, don't create any tasks"

What the AI does:

  1. Shows complete task list with all details
  2. Waits for "CONFIRM ALL"
  3. Only after confirmation, calls create_task for each task
  4. Confirms each task was created successfully

Step 6: Generate Sprint Checklist

After tasks are created, generate a sprint checklist:

Checklist Generation Prompt

"Generate a sprint checklist from the tasks we just created. Include: task title, assignee, due date, and status. Format it as a checklist that can be used to track sprint progress."

What the AI does:

  1. Calls list_tasks filtered by the sprint project/board
  2. Formats tasks as a checklist
  3. Presents sprint checklist for tracking

Complete Workflow Prompts

Here are complete, copy-paste ready prompts:

Full Sprint Planning Workflow

"Help me plan a sprint: 1. Here are my sprint goals: [paste goals] 2. Break each goal into 3-5 specific tasks 3. Show me the task list with titles and descriptions 4. Wait for my approval 5. After I approve, assign tasks to team members and set due dates 6. Show me the assignments 7. Wait for CONFIRM ALL 8. Create all tasks in Corcava project [Project Name] 9. Add acceptance criteria as comments to each task (show me comments first, wait for CONFIRM) 10. Generate a sprint checklist Important: Don't create or update anything until I type CONFIRM or CONFIRM ALL."

Use this when: You want a complete sprint planning session

Quick Sprint Setup

"Convert these sprint goals into tasks: [paste goals]. Break each into tasks, show me the list, and wait for CONFIRM ALL before creating. Assign to [Team Member] and set due date to [Sprint End Date]."

Use this when: You want a quick sprint setup without detailed planning

Workflow Variants

Variant 1: Two-Pass Planning

Create an outline first, then create tasks:

"First pass: Break down these sprint goals into task outlines. Show me the structure but don't create tasks yet. [After review] Second pass: Now create the tasks from the outline. Show me what you'll create and wait for CONFIRM ALL."

What happens: AI creates outline first, then creates tasks after approval

Variant 2: Template-Based Planning

Use a template for common sprint structures:

"For each sprint goal, create tasks following this template: - Research/design task - Implementation task - Testing task - Documentation task Break down the goals and create tasks using this structure."

What happens: AI applies consistent structure across all goals

Example: Complete Sprint Planning Session

Here's a real example of how a sprint planning session flows:

User Prompt

"Sprint goals: 1. User authentication 2. Homepage design 3. API documentation Break these into tasks, show me the list, then wait for CONFIRM ALL before creating."

AI Response (Task List Preview)

Proposed Sprint Tasks (12 tasks):

Ready to create? Type CONFIRM ALL to create all 12 tasks.

Safety Patterns

⚠️ Confirmation Rules for Task Creation

When creating multiple tasks during sprint planning:

  • Always preview: Show complete task list with all details before creating
  • Require explicit confirmation: Use "CONFIRM ALL" for batch creation
  • Review assignments: Verify assignees and due dates are correct
  • Check project/board: Ensure tasks go to the right project and board

Troubleshooting

Invalid Project ID

Symptom: Error when creating tasks

Possible causes:

  • Project ID doesn't exist
  • Project belongs to different workspace

Fix: Use list_projects to find correct project ID first

Too Many Tasks Created

Symptom: More tasks created than expected

Possible causes:

  • AI broke down goals into too many tasks
  • Duplicate tasks created

Fix: Always review task list before confirming. Use "CONFIRM ALL" only after careful review
