+## Limitations
+
+This plugin does **not** include:
+
+- **Team collaboration tracking** — No issue tracker or sprint board integration. Use your existing Jira/Linear/GitHub Issues workflow; the plugin provides governance overlays on top.
+- **Real-time metrics dashboards** — Metrics are generated on-demand via `/agile-metrics-report`, not streamed live.
+- **Automated testing/CI-CD orchestration** — The plugin validates testing strategy and QA readiness but does not run or manage CI/CD pipelines.
+- **Resource capacity planning** — No workload balancing or team allocation tools. Assumes teams manage capacity externally.
+- **Budget/cost tracking** — Financial governance is out of scope; focus is on product lifecycle and quality gates.
+- **Stakeholder communication templates** — Provides structure and agents; you author the actual comms.
+
+The framework is **gated-iterative, not waterfall**. Gates are decision checkpoints, not hard blockers—you can waive or re-plan before proceeding.
