# Retro-Bot
A skill for running lightweight agile retrospectives on Claude collaboration sessions —
making the process of working with Claude incrementally better over time.
The core loop: after you and Claude finish a piece of work, you take a few minutes to
ask three questions together:
- **What worked well?** (keep doing this)
- **What didn't work well?** (friction, rework, confusion, wasted tokens)
- **What should we change?** (concrete improvements to skills, prompts, or process)
Changes are applied immediately and every retro is saved as a snapshot to a persistent
archive. Over time, this builds a running audit trail of how your Claude workflow has
evolved — and compounds into a setup that gets meaningfully faster with each session.

## Phase 0 — Archive Directory Setup (first run only)
Before the retro begins, check whether a retro archive directory has been configured.
Look in Claude.md for a block like this:
```
## Retro-Bot
archive_dir: [path]
```
**If it's already set:** proceed directly to Phase 1. No need to ask again.
**If it's not set:** ask the user once, clearly:
> "Before we start — where do you want to save retro snapshots? This is a one-time
> setup. Give me a folder path (e.g. `H:\My Drive\Retros` or `~/Documents/retros`)
> and I'll save every retro there automatically going forward."
Once the user provides a path:
1. Add the following block to Claude.md (create the file if it doesn't exist):
```
## Retro-Bot
archive_dir: [the path
