What if I don't have a specific epic file path ready?

If no path is provided, the skill automatically looks for the most recent epic document in your project and asks for your confirmation before proceeding.

Can it automatically update my project's documentation?

Yes, through the 'Library Write-Back' feature, the skill identifies relevant architectural or standard-based findings and proposes amendments to your library files.

How does the retro skill find data to analyze?

The skill searches for specific 'Retro' fields within your epic documents that were captured during task execution, as well as general 'Lessons' sections in your project docs.

How does this integrate with the rest of the CPM workflow?

After generating a retro, the skill offers a direct handoff to other tools like /cpm:discover or /cpm:spec, using the retro results as the primary context for the next phase.

Productivity & Workflow

Synthesizes observations from completed epics to create actionable retrospective reports and improve future planning cycles.

CPM Retro is a specialized workflow tool for Claude Code designed to close the feedback loop between project execution and planning. It automatically analyzes completed or partially completed epic documents, extracts granular observations from tasks, and synthesizes them into structured insights. By documenting successes, scope surprises, and technical discoveries, it helps teams refine their development patterns and updates core project library documents to ensure continuous improvement across the codebase.
