Frequently Asked Questions about retrospective

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I document incident-driven learning to prevent process recurrence?

To document incident-driven learning, you capture user dissatisfaction details, analyze recent work against existing guidelines, and update AGENTS.md or development-principles.md to enforce explicit guardrails and prevent recurrence.

What is the best way to update development guidelines based on feedback?

Updating development guidelines based on feedback requires analyzing misalignment against current principles, performing root-cause analysis on the failure, and codifying the resulting lesson directly into AGENTS.md to ensure future interactions meet expectations.

When do I need to perform a retrospective on project outputs?

You need to perform a retrospective on project outputs when user expectations fail, decisions misalign, or post-release feedback indicates a gap in existing development principles that requires immediate process improvement.

Does this guideline update approach work for post-release feedback?

Yes, this approach works for post-release feedback by logging the dissatisfaction, identifying missing principles that caused the failure, and applying explicit guideline changes to development-principles.md to prevent similar incidents.

How do I start a retrospective after an output fails expectations?

To start a retrospective after an output fails expectations, describe the specific dissatisfaction, and the system will guide you through collecting details, analyzing root causes, and updating your guidelines accordingly.

What limitations exist when updating AGENTS.md with incident analysis?

A limitation when updating AGENTS.md with incident analysis is that it requires explicit user feedback detailing what went wrong; without clear dissatisfaction or context about the failure, the root-cause analysis cannot generate meaningful guideline changes.
