SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Weekly engineering retrospectives are often manual, inconsistent, and hard to compare over time. This Skill automates the collection and synthesis of commit history, work patterns, and code quality metrics to deliver a repeatable, team-aware retrospective that highlights praise, growth opportunities, and actionable insights.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generates per-person praise and growth opportunities based on contribution data.
  • Supports configurable time windows (e.g., 7d, 14d, 30d) and compare mode to surface trends over time.
  • Produces actionable insights for focus, shipping velocity, and code quality with a historical snapshot.

Quick Start

Run the retro command for your desired window, for example '/retro 7d' to generate a weekly snapshot.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate weekly engineering retrospectives from Git history?

Automate engineering retrospectives by analyzing a repository's Git history to generate a team-aware report with per-author praise, growth opportunities, and actionable focus insights. Run a command like '/retro 7d' to produce a weekly snapshot without manual data collection.

Can I generate code quality metrics for individual team members from commit data?

Yes, generating per-person code quality metrics from commit data produces individual praise and growth opportunities. The retrospective analyzes Git contributions to create per-author breakdowns, highlighting specific engineering patterns and work signals for each team member.

How do I compare engineering sprint metrics across different time windows?

Compare engineering sprint metrics across different time windows using configurable parameters like 7d, 14d, or 30d. Compare mode surfaces trend data over time, allowing you to contrast shipping velocity, code quality, and focus areas between historical snapshots.

What is the best way to run a team-aware retrospective for a multi-week sprint?

The best way to run a team-aware retrospective for a multi-week sprint is applying the retrospective tool to a 14d or 30d window. This analyzes the extended Git history to produce comprehensive trend data, test signals, and per-author breakdowns for the entire period.

Does the automated retrospective require any external dependencies or CI integrations?

No, the automated retrospective requires no external dependencies or CI integrations to function. It operates independently using scripts and references to collect Git data and generate structured output directly from the repository's commit history.

What actionable insights are included in an automated Git retrospective report?

Actionable insights in an automated Git retrospective report include focus areas, shipping velocity, and code quality signals. The structured output provides per-author breakdowns, trend data, and test signals to guide team improvements and highlight growth opportunities.
