SAFe Metrics Crafter — Debug Workflow

Description: Fix issues and errors in artifacts

When to Use

Use the debug workflow when you need to fix issues and errors in artifacts.

Input Requirements

• Sprint and iteration data
• Velocity and throughput measurements
• Quality metrics (defect density, escaped defects)
• Flow metrics (cycle time, WIP, lead time)

Process

1. Initialize — Set up the debug context for SAFe Metrics Crafter
2. Execute — Perform the debug operation following SAFe Metrics Crafter's style
3. Validate — Check output against quality gates
4. Handoff — Deliver results to downstream personas

Output

• Iteration dashboards with key performance metrics
• Velocity trend charts with predictability analysis
• Quality metrics reports with defect tracking
• Flow visualizations (cumulative flow, cycle time distribution)

Quality Gates

• Metrics must use consistent calculation methodology
• Historical data must be preserved for trend analysis
• Dashboard updates must be timely and accurate
• Metrics definitions must be transparent and documented
