A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

A retrospective is a structured reflection that helps teams learn from their experiences and continuously improve. By regularly examining what went well, what didn't, and what to change, teams build a culture of learning and adaptation. The value isn't just in the discussion.it's in the documented actions and follow-through.

Define what period or project this retrospective covers, who attended, and any significant events that occurred. This frames the discussion and helps future readers understand the context.
Select a retrospective format that fits the team's needs. Common options include:
Collect observations from all team members. Ensure everyone contributes.quiet voices often have important insights. Group similar items to identify themes.
Don't try to address everything. Focus the discussion on the most impactful items. Vote or discuss to identify the top 2-3 issues to address.
Convert insights into specific, assignable actions. Every action needs an owner and a due date. Avoid vague improvements like "communicate better."
Check the status of action items from the last retrospective. Celebrate completions and discuss blockers for incomplete items. This builds accountability.
Capture the key points so they're available for future team members and for tracking patterns over time.
Active only when .claude/pm-skills.local.md exists. With no file, ignore this section entirely and behave exactly as described above.

produced the proposal. If it changed in between, merge your entry into the current state and re-propose rather than overwriting; add only your own entry and leave every other field and section byte-identical. Nothing enforces this at runtime and the file is gitignored, so a careless whole-file write loses another session's work with no way to recover it.
A retrospective surfaces raw observations, patterns, and commitments at once. Record the durable half, the lessons, under a single tag; a downstream reader needs to know how firmly to weight the entry, and a mixed tag tells it nothing.
Use the template in references/TEMPLATE.md to structure the output. A complete retrospective fills every template section: Overview; Previous Retrospective Review; What Went Well; What to Improve; Discussion Notes; Action Items; Parking Lot; Metrics and Trends; Facilitator Notes; and Next Retrospective.
