Why each option
The Scrum daily standup covers three specific questions focused on yesterday, today, and impediments - keeping the team aligned and blockers visible.
The Scrum Guide defines the Daily Scrum as a 15-minute event where each developer answers three questions: what did I do yesterday to help meet the Sprint Goal, what will I do today to help meet the Sprint Goal, and do I see any impediments that prevent me or the team from meeting the Sprint Goal. This format keeps the meeting focused on the current Sprint and surfaces blockers quickly for resolution.
Planning 'for the week' is incorrect because the daily standup focuses only on today's plan, not a weekly horizon, and resolved issues are not a standard standup topic.
Discussing 'deliverables completed' shifts focus to outcomes rather than the Sprint Goal and current blockers, which is not the daily standup format defined by the Scrum Guide.
Backlog items are discussed during Sprint Planning and Sprint Review, not the daily standup, which focuses solely on the current day's work and impediments.
