Your development team has been consistently achieving their sprint goals for the past four sprints with a stable velocity of 30 story points. In sprint planning for the next iteration, the team commits to 30 points of work. However, by mid-sprint during the daily standup, it becomes clear that three critical stories are blocked due to an unexpected production outage requiring immediate team attention. The team estimates they can only complete 18 points this sprint. What should the scrum master do?

Your scrum team is working on a healthcare application where regulatory compliance is critical. During the sprint, a team member discovers that a completed story from the previous sprint doesn't meet new HIPAA requirements that were recently clarified by the compliance department. The feature is already in the staging environment and was demonstrated to stakeholders. The Definition of Done includes 'meets all regulatory requirements,' but this specific requirement wasn't known during development. What should the scrum master facilitate?

During a sprint review, stakeholders see the completed user stories but express disappointment that the features don't match their expectations. The team followed the acceptance criteria precisely, and all stories meet the Definition of Done. The product owner approved the stories during backlog refinement two weeks ago. Stakeholders now request significant changes that would require reworking most of the sprint's output. What is the most appropriate next step?

You are facilitating sprint planning for a new feature that involves complex data migration. The development team estimates the work at 34 story points, but the sprint capacity is only 28 story points based on historical velocity. One developer suggests reducing quality checks to fit everything into the sprint, while another proposes splitting the migration into smaller, independently deliverable chunks. The product owner is concerned about delaying the feature launch. How should you proceed with sprint planning?

Your agile team has completed three sprints of a mobile application development project. During the retrospective, team members report that they consistently struggle to complete stories because dependencies on a third-party API team cause delays. The API team works in a different department and follows a waterfall approach with monthly release cycles. Several stories have been carried over to subsequent sprints, affecting the team's velocity. What should the product owner do to address this impediment?
