review-1617-2026-06-26-v2 Review

review ready

Verdict: APPROVED

Re-review of board item #1617 after refinement. Previous review: review-1617-2026-06-26 (NEEDS_REFINEMENT). All three issues from the prior review have been resolved.

Previous Issues — Resolution

  • [x] MEMORY.md missing from File Targets — FIXED. MEMORY.md now listed in File Targets with correct description ("correct sprint status terminology").
  • [x] story:sprint-planning label mismatch — FIXED. Label changed to story:sprint-orchestration, which matches the existing user story on project-claude-custom.
  • [x] arch:memory label missing note — FIXED. Label changed to arch:docs, backed by the existing arch-docs-claude-custom architecture note.

Template Completeness

  • [x] Type — Feature
  • [x] Lineage — present (project: claude-custom, Sprint 5 origin)
  • [x] Repo — ldraney/claude-custom
  • [x] User Story — present
  • [x] Context — present, well-written with concrete Sprint 5 failure evidence
  • [x] File Targets — present (2 files)
  • [x] Feature Flag — None (appropriate for memory file update)
  • [x] Acceptance Criteria — present (5 items)
  • [x] Test Expectations — present (manual verification)
  • [x] Constraints — present (2 constraints)
  • [x] Checklist — present
  • [x] Related — present

Traceability

  • [x] story:sprint-orchestration label — matches user story on project-claude-custom
  • [x] story note verified — found in project-claude-custom user-stories section (heading "sprint-orchestration", paragraph describes orchestrating sprints as cross-project waves)
  • [x] arch:docs label — docs architecture component
  • [x] arch note verified — arch-docs-claude-custom note exists in pal-e-docs (note_type: architecture, status: active)
  • [x] Forgejo issue — #290, open, valid URL

File Targets

  • [x] ~/.claude/projects/-home-ldraney-claude-custom/memory/feedback_sprint-philosophy.md — verified: file exists (28 lines). Currently defines what a sprint IS (parallel, scope-based, no internal deps) but has no Definition of Done section. Correct target for the change.
  • [x] ~/.claude/projects/-home-ldraney-claude-custom/memory/MEMORY.md — verified: file exists (90 lines). Contains sprint entries. Sprint 5 already uses "IN VALIDATION" (line 13), but Sprints 2-4 still use "DONE" in their headers (lines 33, 46, 56). Correct target for terminology updates.

Repo Placement

OK. Issue filed on ldraney/claude-custom, targets memory files in ~/.claude/projects/-home-ldraney-claude-custom/memory/. Correct repo. Single-repo change.

Dependencies

No blocking dependencies. Board item #1617 is independent. Related items on the board:
  • #280 (Sprint SOP — codify cross-project wave concept) is in_progress — complementary but independent. Sprint SOP defines sprint mechanics; this ticket defines sprint done criteria.
  • #275 (Dictionary definitions) is in_progress — could define "done" but this ticket is specifically about sprint done criteria in memory, not dictionary.
No undocumented dependencies.

Acceptance Criteria

5 ACs — all agent-verifiable for a 1-point memory file update:
  • AC 1-3: Verified by reading updated feedback_sprint-philosophy.md for new Definition of Done section and corollaries.
  • AC 4: Verified by checking for cross-reference to sop-board-workflow validation/done column definitions.
  • AC 5: Verified by reading MEMORY.md sprint status entries for correct terminology.
No missing criteria detected.

Blast Radius

Low. Changes are confined to memory files which are session-context only. No hooks, scripts, or code reference these files programmatically. Other memory files in sibling projects (project_paldocs-consolidation.md, project_sprint-1-tickets.md) also reference sprint status with "done" but those are in different project contexts and not in scope for this ticket. No downstream consumers affected.

Decomposition Assessment

2 file targets, 1 repo, 5 ACs. Estimated agent work well under 5 minutes — this is a documentation/memory update. No decomposition needed.

Recommendation

No action needed. All three issues from the prior review have been resolved. Ticket is ready for development.
