What it does

This is a daily early-warning monitor for in-flight ClickUp sprints. Each morning it reads the current sprint's open points and the days remaining, then compares the required daily burn to the team's historical average daily burn. If finishing on time would demand a pace the team has never sustained, it flags the sprint as at-risk and posts the math to Slack.

When to use it

Use it when commitments look fine on day one but quietly slip mid-sprint. A start-of-sprint check only catches static overcommitment; this catches scope creep, sick days, and underestimated tickets as they accumulate.

How it works

  1. 1A daily schedule triggers each workday morning.
  2. 2The flow pulls the active ClickUp sprint's remaining points and end date.
  3. 3It computes required daily burn = remaining points / working days left.
  4. 4It pulls the team's trailing average daily burn from recent sprints.
  5. 5A logic step checks whether required burn exceeds sustainable burn.
  6. 6If at risk, Slack receives a concise status with the burn gap and projected finish date.
