SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill analyzes delivery artifacts to identify and report on recurring friction points, aiming to uncover systemic improvement opportunities.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Friction Log Analysis: Parses ## Friction Log entries from various delivery reports.
  • Pattern Detection: Identifies recurring themes and high-frequency friction types.
  • Promotion Candidate Identification: Flags entries suitable for promotion to durable memory (conventions, decisions, rules).
  • Use Case: After an epic is completed, activate this skill to scan all related delivery reports, identify common issues like "missing context" or "tool failures," and generate a report suggesting new conventions or rule clarifications.

Quick Start

Scan all delivery artefacts for friction and produce a full retrospective report.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I analyze delivery artifacts for friction log entries?

To analyze delivery friction, this Skill scans specified delivery artifacts, extracts friction log entries, and tags them to identify systemic improvement opportunities. It parses delivery reports to detect recurring themes and high-frequency friction types.

How does pattern detection work for recurring friction points?

Pattern detection for friction points works by scanning extracted delivery artifacts and identifying recurring themes based on signal and frequency. It flags high-frequency friction types and tags promotion candidates suitable for durable memory.

Can I filter friction analysis by epic, date range, or friction type?

Yes, you can filter friction analysis by epic, date range, or friction type. The Skill scans specified artifact types using these optional filters to extract entries and generate a structured retrospective report.

What is the best way to generate a retrospective report after completing an epic?

The best way to generate a retrospective report after an epic is to activate this Skill to scan all related delivery reports. It identifies common issues like tool failures and suggests new conventions or rule clarifications.

How are promotion candidates identified during friction analysis?

Promotion candidates are identified during friction analysis by evaluating the signal and frequency of extracted friction entries. The Skill flags these entries as suitable for promotion to durable memory as conventions, decisions, or rules.

What format do delivery reports need to be in for friction log analysis?

Delivery reports must contain `## Friction Log` entries for the Skill to parse them. The Skill extracts and tags these specific entries to detect recurring patterns and produce structured retrospective reports.
