The premise
AI can rewrite kanban explicit policies from observed flow data and ticket history, naming WIP limits, pull rules, and definitions of done that match how work actually moves.
What AI does well here
- Infer current implicit policies from cycle-time and WIP-history data.
- Draft revised explicit policies with specific WIP limits and pull rules per column.
What AI cannot do
- Make the team enforce WIP limits when leadership keeps adding priority work.
- Replace the daily standup conversation that catches policy violations.
