-# Story 274: MCP pipeline status tool with agent assignments
-
-## User Story
-
-As a user checking pipeline status, I want an MCP tool that returns a structured status report including which agent is assigned to each work item, so that I can quickly see what's active and spot stuck items.
-
-## Acceptance Criteria
-
-- [ ] New MCP tool (e.g. `get_pipeline_status`) returns all work items across all active pipeline stages (current, qa, merge, done) with their stage, name, and assigned agent
-- [ ] Upcoming backlog items are included with count or listing
-- [ ] Agent assignment info comes from story front matter (`agent` field) and/or the running agent list
-- [ ] Response is structured/deterministic (not free-form prose)
-
-## Out of Scope
-
-- TBD
