Sprint 1 Review

Reconstructed ceremony record

This record was reconstructed after the ceremony from team recollection and repository evidence because contemporaneous minutes were not retained.

It is not a transcript. Exact statements, individual opinions, votes, the precise discussion sequence, and any unrecorded demonstration are not claimed.

Evidence boundaries

  • Contemporaneous evidence: the repository, issues, pull requests, commits, workflows, deployments, and documents created during the sprint. No Review minutes or recording are available.
  • Team-confirmed recollection: the Review occurred and the team's overall assessment was positive.
  • Repository evidence: establishes the delivered increment and known gates, but not the exact order or wording of the ceremony.
  • Future planned evidence: later Reviews should retain date, attendance, increment demonstrated, stakeholder feedback, decisions, and follow-up work at the time of the ceremony.

Sprint goal and delivered increment

Sprint 1 began with a location-focused vertical-slice goal: an authenticated player should discover a published event, submit a browser-reported location, and receive a server-authoritative PostgreSQL/PostGIS eligibility result. The repository supports the following delivered foundations by the sprint close:

  • independently buildable React Web, Fastify API, and Docusaurus applications;
  • Auth0 authentication and server-side bearer-token validation;
  • versioned /api/v1 routes, safe errors, request identifiers, and generated OpenAPI;
  • PostgreSQL/PostGIS migrations, seeds, readiness checks, and authoritative event eligibility;
  • map-backed and map-independent event discovery with browser-location failure handling;
  • Gitea CI/CD, independent Web/API deployment, and public documentation;
  • automated unit, component, route, database, and deterministic browser coverage for the release slice; and
  • architecture, requirements, risk, deployment, testing, and operational documentation.

Repository history also shows substantial Basic functionality delivered before the milestone close: timed challenges and marking, retry-safe rewards, collection and starter cards, saved decks, CPU matches and history, and the protected Author console. These later features were real repository progress, but they were not silently added to the narrower formal Sprint 1 location-slice release claim.

Repository-backed Review topics

The following are safe reconstructions of increment topics available for Review from the Sprint goal and delivered work. The evidence does not prove that every item was live-demonstrated or establish a precise presentation sequence.

  1. The end-to-end location slice from authentication and event discovery to an API/PostGIS eligibility result.
  2. The authority boundary: reported location is untrusted, the map is presentation-only, and protected rules remain server-side.
  3. Mobile and accessible fallback behaviour when geolocation, the map provider, or the API fails.
  4. Independent Web/API/docs builds, automated validation, deployment, and public documentation.
  5. The broader Basic gameplay and Author increment then present in the repository, while distinguishing it from the formal Sprint 1 release scope.

Assessment and limitations

The team confirms that its assessment was positive and that it was satisfied with Sprint 1 progress. The repository supports substantial delivery, while also recording these limitations at the boundary:

  • completed campus field-test results were not retained in the repository, so location thresholds remained provisional;
  • full manual keyboard, screen-reader, touch, contrast, reduced-motion, and representative-device evidence remained incomplete;
  • signed-in production, database-release, backup/recovery, and other operator-owned evidence was not fully recorded;
  • a complete player profile/account, password-reset, and account-deletion journey remained future Basic work;
  • some Creature content and strict publication enforcement still required reviewed remediation; and
  • meeting, ceremony, and feedback evidence had not been captured consistently at the time it occurred.

These limits are preserved in the Sprint 1 evidence index, known limitations, and Basic-tier release validation.

Work carried into Sprint 2

Natural follow-up work included:

  • complete and validate the remaining account/profile capabilities;
  • conduct formal user testing and trace findings into issues and changes;
  • finish manual accessibility, responsive, field, and deployed-provider evidence;
  • continue CI reliability and release-evidence improvements;
  • resolve remaining content and database-enforcement gates; and
  • preserve current-reference and historical-evidence boundaries as the product evolves.
