AI agent for project managers

Team Retrospective Follow-through Agent

Retrospective actions judged by outcomes, not activity.

Team Retrospective Follow-through Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

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.

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.

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Outcome metric per action
  • Time allowed before judging an outcome (default 4 weeks)
  • Sources for execution evidence
  • Format of the learning review

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Team policy changes
  • Personnel judgments

Hard limits

  • No personnel judgments.

It stops when

  • Done: review prepared.

An example run

What happensBefore the May 20 retrospective, the agent checked four actions from April. All were executed. The action to add a deploy checklist was meant to cut rollbacks, but rollbacks stayed at five per month, so the outcome check failed. It proposed a two-week trial of staged deploys with rollbacks as the measure. The team accepted it at the retrospective.
