  • 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.
