SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Chief and teams need a structured way to reflect after a cycle, surfacing per-contributor metrics, stability indicators, and actionable improvements.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Per-Contributor Breakdown: aggregates inputs, decisions, and stages executed for founders, PMs, engineers, designers, and marketers.
  • Shipping Streak & Confidence Update: tracks release cadence and recalculates RO-PNA confidence scores to guide future planning.
  • Actionable Output: generates a period report with metrics, what_worked, what_didn_work, patterns_observed, and concrete next steps.

Quick Start

Initiate a retrospective for the most recent cycle to generate per-contributor metrics and action items.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a data-driven weekly retrospective for my team?

Automating post-cycle retrospectives collects per-contributor metrics, RO-PNA confidence scores, and stage traces to produce a structured YAML report. It surfaces what worked, what didn't, and patterns observed to guide future planning and decision-making.

What metrics are included in a postmortem report for cycle closures?

A postmortem report includes per-contributor metrics, shipping streaks, and recalculated RO-PNA confidence scores. It outputs a structured YAML file containing period metrics, what_worked, what_didn_work, patterns_observed, and concrete action items with validation.

Can I generate retrospective insights for different roles like engineer and designer?

Retrospective insights apply to chief, pm, engineer, designer, and marketer roles. The process aggregates inputs, decisions, and stages executed for each contributor to provide a comprehensive breakdown of team performance during the weekly cycle.

What is the best way to track shipping streaks and confidence scores after a cycle?

Tracking shipping streaks and confidence scores is handled by recalculating RO-PNA scores during the post-cycle retrospective. This monitors release cadence and stability indicators to guide future planning and team workflow adjustments.

How do I create actionable improvement items from team workflow patterns?

Actionable improvement items are created by analyzing patterns_observed from per-contributor metrics and stage traces. The retrospective output validates these insights and applies guardrails to generate concrete next steps in a structured YAML format.
