ALT When an AI agent says done who decides?
🏆 TIME just put Hermes Agent on its Best Inventions of 2026 list.
We run our ScrumAI Agile Bootup beta on it. 🚀
The invention isn't the model, it's the harness: 🧠 memory, 🛠️ skills, 🔄 recovery, ✅ approvals.

We put an AI agent on our Scrum Team, with a role, working agreements and a Definition of Done. Over nine weekly Sprints, completed points went from 44 to 76, measured in Jira.
The new scrumai.org shows how we did it, and how your team can too. 🚀

Most teams don’t fear AI. They fear two things: that an agent’s work can’t be trusted, and that it will take their job. The research says both fears are partly right, and that avoidance is the wrong answer. Here is how Scrum Teams build trust: jvsmanagement.com/fear-of-ai…

Our biggest AI agent improvement wasn’t a new model. It was better Jira stories.
A title-only story forces the agent to guess. Every open decision is authority you handed over without choosing to.

Company A spends $10M a year on AI tokens.
Company B spends $1M and ships 10× faster.
Only one survives. The difference is how they organize their agents.

Most Scrum training teaches you the rules. This book teaches you the reasoning behind them, so you know which rule to bend when reality doesn't cooperate.

ALT Stacked bar chart of story points completed per sprint, Sprints 146 to 154. AI points rise from 3 to 24 while human points end higher than they started, 36 to 47.
We asked our AI teammate how much of the work she actually did. 🤖
Answer: 14.63%. ✅
Then we realised our tracker knows whose name is on a task, not who did the thinking. 🤔
