Plan a sprint by refining backlog items, defining a sprint goal, calculating team capacity, selecting items, and decomposing them into tasks. Produces a SPRINT-PLAN.md with goal, selected items, task breakdown, and capacity allocation. Use when starting a new sprint in a Scrum or agile project, re-planning after significant scope change, transitioning from ad-hoc work to structured sprint cadence, or after backlog grooming when items are ready for inclusion.
