Start Sprint
start_sprint is one of the 32 MCP tools in Weft, the AI task manager you run by talking to Claude, Cursor, Codex or ChatGPT through one MCP endpoint. Transition a planned sprint to active status. One sprint can be active at a time, on every plan — if another sprint is running, the call fails and names it; complete that sprint first, then retry.
Arguments
| Name | Type | Required | Description |

Returns
The sprint with status="active".
