retro

An agent skill by phuryn, from phuryn/pm-skills. Tags: documents, office.

What it does

Facilitate a structured sprint retrospective — what went well, what didn't, and prioritized action items with owners and deadlines. Use when running a retrospective, reflecting on a sprint, creating action items from team feedback, or learning how to run effective retros.

Install

With the skills CLI, which installs into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents:

npx skills add phuryn/pm-skills --skill retro

Or copy the skill folder into Claude Code's skills directory by hand (~/.claude/skills for every project, or .claude/skills inside one):

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/phuryn/pm-skills
cp -r pm-skills/pm-execution/skills/retro ~/.claude/skills/retro

Safety box score

Grade A, minimal risk: 4 of 100 risk points, rated 2026-10-21. The grade rates what the skill and its scripts can reach on the machine of whoever installs it, across eight categories from shell execution to secrets access. How the score works.

This is a documentation-only skill for facilitating sprint retrospectives and producing a markdown summary. It can read user-provided sprint files and generate action items, but it does not run code, call network services, or request credentials.

Category levels, from 0 (none) to 3 (high)
Category	Level	Why
Code & shell execution	0 (none)	The skill only describes retrospective facilitation steps; there are no shell commands, scripts, or code execution instructions.
Network access	0 (none)	No downloads, API calls, or remote data transmissions are described in `SKILL.md`.
Filesystem reach	1 (low)	It says to read any user-provided files first and to "Save as markdown," which implies reading and writing files in the workspace.
Secrets & credentials	0 (none)	There is no request for tokens, passwords, key files, or other credential material.
Privilege & persistence	0 (none)	The skill does not mention sudo, global installs, services, shell startup files, or other privileged changes.
Instruction hijack surface	0 (none)	`SKILL.md` contains no instructions to ignore safeguards, hide behavior, or follow external prompt content.
Irreversible actions	0 (none)	It generates a retrospective summary and action items only; it does not push, send, book, deploy, or delete anything.
Transparency	0 (none)	The only file is plain markdown text; there are no binaries, installers, or generated/decoded code blobs.

Before installing

Check where the generated markdown will be saved so it stays inside the intended workspace.
Redact any sensitive information from sprint notes or Slack exports before providing them.
If you want a specific retro style, confirm the chosen format (Start/Stop/Continue, 4Ls, or Sailboat) before running it.
