AI agent for project managers
Team Retrospective Follow-through Agent
Retrospective actions judged by outcomes, not activity.
What it does
Retrospective actions often get marked done without anyone checking whether they solved the problem. Before each retrospective, this agent checks whether each agreed action was actually carried out, using tickets and records. Then it looks at the outcome metric linked to the original problem. If the action ran but the problem has not improved, it proposes a revised experiment with a clear measure. It prepares a learning review for the team. Policy changes and judgments about people stay with the team. Edge case: a new review checklist was adopted, but bug escape rates did not drop, so the agent proposes testing a different step.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
Read the steps as a list
- Retrospective approaching
- List actions from the last retrospective
- Check action execution
- Probe outcome metrics
- Did the problem improve?If not: propose a revised experiment with a clear measure. Back to step 4.
- Prepare the learning review
- Team agrees on next experimentsThe agent waits here for your OK.
- Retrospective learning record
How it decides
It distinguishes done from effective and proposes a new experiment when needed.
- Done is not the same as effective.
- Judge outcomes only after the agreed time.
- Each revised experiment has one measure.
