The Retro Run Skill enables teams to perform a structured, data-driven retrospective on a completed development cycle, capturing metrics, learnings, and actionable improvements.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Gather and synthesize artifacts from the cycle (spec.md, tasks.md, plan.md, reviews, and QA reports) to produce a holistic view of performance.
  • Generate a comprehensive retrospective report with insights, trends, and concrete improvement suggestions for next iterations.
  • Support constitution updates and knowledge capture for future iterations, with optional extension hooks to automate parts of the workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate a retrospective analysis for a completed software development cycle?

Automate retrospective analysis by gathering cycle artifacts like spec.md, tasks.md, plan.md, and QA reports to compute git metrics and compare specs to implementation. This generates a comprehensive retrospective report containing actionable insights for future iterations.

What is a spec-driven retrospective and when do I need it?

A spec-driven retrospective evaluates a completed development cycle by comparing initial specifications to the final implementation. You need this structured process when you want to capture cycle metrics, document learnings, and generate concrete process-improvement suggestions.

How do I generate metrics and improvement suggestions from development cycle artifacts?

Generate metrics and improvement suggestions by synthesizing development artifacts and computing git metrics across specification, planning, implementation, QA, and release activities. This holistic view produces a retrospective report with trends and concrete improvements for next iterations.

Can I use retrospective metrics to update a project constitution?

Yes, you can use retrospective metrics to update a project constitution. The structured retrospective analysis supports constitution updates and knowledge capture, applying optional extension hooks to automate parts of the workflow for future iterations.

Does the retrospective analysis work without external dependencies?

Yes, the retrospective analysis works without external dependencies. It independently gathers artifacts, computes git metrics, and compares specs to implementation to generate a retrospective report, relying solely on your existing spec-driven workflow data.
