Activation

This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.

Run a retrospective after every 10 completed User Stories. Use when the retro counter reaches 10, when the team wants to reflect on recent work, or when continuous improvement analysis is needed.

Key capabilities

  • Track completed user stories for retrospectives
  • Trigger retrospectives after 10 completed user stories
  • Review past tasks and commits for data gathering
  • Identify recurring patterns and workflow friction
  • Generate actionable items for process improvement
  • Update project rules in CLAUDE.md

How it works

This skill triggers a retrospective based on a counter of completed user stories. It guides the review of recent work to identify patterns and generate actionable items for improvement.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
Completed user stories and recent work history
You get back
A structured retrospective report with actionable items and updated project rules

When to use agentflow-retro

  • Conduct a team reflection after completing 10 user stories
  • Analyze workflow friction and cycle time issues
  • Update project rules in CLAUDE.md based on team feedback
  • Document root causes for recent bugs and quality issues
  • Identify new tooling needs and add them to the backlog

About this skill

Retrospective — Continuous Improvement

Triggered every 10 completed User Stories (tracked in project memory).

When to Run

  • Retro counter reaches 10 completed User Stories
  • Either party requests: "Let's do a retro"
  • After a significant incident or quality issue

Counter tracks US completions only — spikes, bugs, and tooling tasks don't count.

Retro Template

## Retro -- [date] -- after story N

### What worked well
-

### Friction / slowdowns
-

### Bugfix quality (were root causes documented?)
-

### Memory + tooling gaps
-

### Inner loop robustness
-

### Quality gate effectiveness
-

### Actionable items
- [ ] (add to BACKLOG#Ideation or update project rules)

Process

  1. Gather data — review DONE-Today and archives since last retro
  2. Walk each section — be specific, reference actual tasks/commits
  3. Identify patterns — what keeps recurring?
  4. Generate actionable items — each must be concrete and assignable:
    • Process improvements -> update project CLAUDE.md rules
    • Tool gaps -> add to BACKLOG#Ideation
    • Anti-patterns -> add to KNOWN_PATTERNS.md
  5. Reset counter — set retro_stories_since_last: 0 in project memory

Scope

The retro covers:

  • Workflow friction and cycle time
  • Bugfixing approach quality (were root causes documented?)
  • Memory file usefulness
  • Inner/outer loop robustness
  • Tooling gaps
  • Quality gate effectiveness

Output

  • Actionable items added to BACKLOG#Ideation
  • Rule updates applied to project CLAUDE.md
  • New anti-patterns added to KNOWN_PATTERNS.md
  • Counter reset in project memory

When not to use it

  • When the retro counter has not reached 10 completed user stories
  • When the team does not want to reflect on recent work
  • When continuous improvement analysis is not needed

Limitations

  • Retro counter tracks US completions only
  • Spikes, bugs, and tooling tasks do not count towards the retro counter
  • The retro covers specific areas like workflow friction and tooling gaps

How it compares
