1) Sprint contract Period: October 6–November 4, 2026, exactly 30 calendar days. Result: Three illustrated portfolio pages forming a complete private draft with four sections, one example per section, and a completed self-review. Acceptance criterion: By day 30: All three pages and four sections are present. Each section contains one example drawn from existing materials. The pages contain illustrations prepared from existing materials. Self-review is documented, with any remaining issues recorded. The draft remains private. Non-goals: Purchases, public release, external approval, additional pages or sections, and overtime. Current status: An outline and the first rough section exist. Fixed boundaries: Monday–Friday, 60 project minutes daily; weekends unavailable. Use existing source files, outline, text editor, and personal computer. Open points: Distribution of four sections across three pages; suitability of existing materials for illustrations; current completeness of the rough section. Resolve these during the scheduled work. Capacity calculation: Window Available weekdays Minutes Days 1–7 5 300 Days 8–14 5 300 Days 15–21 5 300 Days 22–28 5 300 Days 29–30 2 120 Total 22 1,320 — 22 hours The calendar allocates exactly 1,320 minutes. Minimum actions replace part of that day’s allocation; they are never additional work.

Mathematical check: 22 working days × 60 minutes + 8 unavailable days × 0 minutes = 1,320 minutes. No weekend work or overtime is planned. Source grouping precedes drafting; assembly precedes self-review. 4) Backlog and restart protocol One missed day: At the next available session, spend the first 10 minutes comparing completed results with the calendar. Review scope, order, and non-goals. Select the earliest unfinished prerequisite and replace that day’s lower-priority work within its 60-minute ceiling. Two missed days: Re-estimate the remaining necessary work. Reduce polishing and optional presentation refinements first. Reorder dependent tasks explicitly; do not combine two full sessions into one. A whole lost week: Recalculate capacity using the actual remaining weekdays. Losing five working sessions removes 300 minutes, leaving at most 1,020 minutes for the sprint. Compare remaining work estimates with remaining capacity. If required work no longer fits, record the conflict and choose explicitly between: Simplifying presentation while preserving three illustrated pages, four sections, four examples, and self-review. Changing the success criterion by an explicit decision. Recording incomplete acceptance on day 30. Overtime and weekend recovery remain excluded. Concrete re-entry step: Open the checklist and latest draft during the next available weekday session. Mark completed results, identify the earliest missing prerequisite, and perform its 10-minute minimum action. 5) Risks and countermeasures Confirmed constraints and dependencies: Sources must be grouped before drafting; assembly must precede self-review; weekends and overtime are unavailable. No external approval dependency exists. No additional confirmed obstacle was supplied. Hypothesis Early warning Prevention Reaction Existing materials may not support an example or illustration. An empty source assignment on day 3. Check suitability during source grouping. Use another suitable existing item; if none exists, record the acceptance conflict and request an explicit scope decision. Drafting or illustration preparation may exceed its allocation. A scheduled result remains incomplete after 60 minutes. Keep each section focused on its assigned example; stop at the daily ceiling. Simplify treatment and apply the backlog protocol. Four sections may overcrowd three pages. The assembled draft requires unreadable density or a fourth page. Establish the page map on day 3. Remove repetition and shorten supporting text while retaining all required sections and examples. 6) Tracking and weekly review Track only these three proofs: Content completion: Number of complete sections with a checked example, out of four. Page completion: Number of assembled illustrated pages, out of three. Acceptance evidence: Checklist status and completed self-review record. On days 7, 14, 21, and 28, record: Planned result. Actually completed result, with its file or draft location. Verifiable deviation. Decision for the next week within remaining capacity. Judge progress by saved, checked results. 7) Start today Today is October 5; the specified sprint starts October 6. No project time was allocated for today, so no preparation is required before day 1. First executable step on October 6: Open the outline and source files, save the acceptance checklist, and inventory the existing materials. Required preparation: Have the existing files accessible in the text editor. Visible result: A saved checklist and source inventory. Minimum action for today, only if 10 minutes are available: Save the acceptance checklist. This is optional preparation outside the sprint; tomorrow’s session should use that result rather than repeat it.
