# Release Review Prompt Template

Use this when checking MVP readiness or identifying blockers before release.

```text
Work Type: Release
Backlog Item: MVP Release
Goal: Review current MVP readiness
Why: [confirm release readiness or identify blockers]
Scope: Review the implemented work against docs/release-mvp-checklist.md and the MVP backlog
Out of Scope: New feature implementation unless explicitly requested
Constraints: Follow AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, docs/scrum-backlog.md, docs/decision-log.md, docs/release-mvp-checklist.md, and docs/prompt-process.md. Stay within MVP unless explicitly told otherwise.
Definition of Done: Clear separation of complete items, blockers, risks, and next required actions
Deliverables: Release-readiness review, blocker list, risk list, and recommended next steps
If you discover scope, architecture, or release-plan impacts, update the relevant docs before finishing.
```

## Example

```text
Work Type: Release
Backlog Item: MVP Release
Goal: Review current MVP readiness for the local September 10, 2026 target
Why: Confirm what is still required before the MVP can be considered ready
Scope: Compare current repo state and backlog status against docs/release-mvp-checklist.md
Out of Scope: Implementing new features during the review
Constraints: Follow AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, docs/scrum-backlog.md, docs/decision-log.md, docs/release-mvp-checklist.md, and docs/prompt-process.md. Stay within MVP unless explicitly told otherwise.
Definition of Done: MVP blockers, risks, completed items, and next actions are clearly identified
Deliverables: Release-readiness summary and prioritized next steps
