Analyzes SpecStory history to detect and score coding session scope creep and rabbit holes.
SpecStory Yak Shave Analyzer is a specialized productivity diagnostic tool that parses your .specstory/history to identify when coding sessions drift from their original intent. By calculating a 'yak shave score' based on domain shifts, tool usage patterns, and goal completion, it provides developers with visibility into their most distracted sessions. This skill is ideal for post-sprint audits, helping you identify which types of tasks—like UI fixes or infrastructure updates—are most likely to lead you down a rabbit hole.
