Playbook: Run a quality improvement sprint

Measurable code health gains: coverage gaps, hot spots, and review debt addressed.

journey~100 minAll Software Engineers

Journey Steps

1Step 1 — Review code like a senior engineer (Rust): start with "Read description and tests FIRST to learn intent"
2Step 2 — Profile before optimizing (Java/JVM): start with "Define target metric: p95 latency? memory ceiling? throughput?"
3Step 3 — Debug production without stopping the world (.NET): start with "Correlate user report to trace IDs through gateway → service → data layer"
4How it fits together: Choose targets by risk × churn. One theme per sprint; quality sprints fail by diffusion.
