Generating a Status Report

Produce a clear, honest status report.

HARD-GATE

• Do not fabricate progress; unknown → "needs update".
• Do not hide blockers or risks.
• Use active voice; cite blockers with owners.

Core Process

1. Gather task progress, sprint info, blockers, risk register.
2. Categorize items: Accomplished, In Progress, Blocked, Upcoming.
3. Write Executive Summary (2–4 sentences).
4. Fill sections: Accomplishments, In Progress, Blocked, Risks, Next Steps (see template).
5. Verify no status is fabricated.
