Sprint 95 Plan: Human Factors and Review Ergonomics at Scale

Context

Program throughput is increasingly constrained by reviewer attention and cognitive load. Sprint 95 optimizes review ergonomics and decision quality.

---

Goals

1. Reduce reviewer cognitive load while preserving rigor
2. Improve triage precision for high-risk changes
3. Measure and optimize review latency/consistency
4. Prevent reviewer fatigue-driven quality regressions

Human-Factors Rule

• Queue shaping must prioritize risk while respecting reviewer capacity limits.
