SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Post-sprint retrospectives are often informal and poorly documented, making it hard to preserve learnings or track action items. gaia-retro provides a guided, write-once workflow that captures went-well, didn't-go-well, and concrete actions and stores a durable artifact in docs/implementation-artifacts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided, three-section retrospective prompts (went well, improvements, action items)
  • Immutable retro artifacts written to docs/implementation-artifacts and anchored by sprint-id
  • Data-informed facilitation by loading sprint-status.yaml and related story data to seed discussions

Quick Start

Provide sprint-id optionally and initiate the retrospective to produce the artifact at docs/implementation-artifacts/retrospective-{sprint_id}-{YYYY-MM-DD}.md

FAQPage Schema
How do I document a sprint retrospective with action items?

To document a sprint retrospective, this Skill collects went-well, didn't-go-well, and action items, then writes an immutable artifact to docs/implementation-artifacts anchored by a sprint-id.

What is the best way to capture agile retrospective artifacts for my team?

The best way to capture agile retrospective artifacts is using a guided, write-once workflow that prevents post-creation edits and preserves a durable record of team feedback.

Can I use existing sprint data to seed retrospective discussions?

Yes, the retrospective workflow reads sprint-status.yaml and related story files to load sprint data and seed data-informed retrospective discussions automatically.

How do I start an agile retrospective with a specific sprint-id?

To start an agile retrospective, provide a sprint-id and initiate the process to produce a retrospective artifact at docs/implementation-artifacts/retrospective-{sprint_id}-{YYYY-MM-DD}.md.

Are retrospective artifacts immutable once they are written?

Yes, retrospective artifacts are immutable and write-once, enforcing a durable record that cannot be altered after the file is created in the implementation artifacts directory.

Do I need a sprint-id to run a retrospective?

No, a sprint-id is optional, but providing one anchors the retrospective artifact to a specific sprint cycle for easier tracking and organization within the artifacts directory.
