CP-7 retrospective: audit checkpoints, evidence quality, action items, and harvest candidates. Closes the V-model cycle and feeds the next run. Use via /retro after ship, escalate, or significant session.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# /retro — CP-7 close the V

Every non-`tiny` shipped or escalated run gets a retro. Retro is **advisory** but strongly expected: it is how the harness improves.

## When to run

- After CP-6 ship (approved publish, merged PR, vault deliverable done)
- After escalate (capture why verifier failed)
- End of an `/ultragoal` phase (one retro per phase)
- Manual: `/retro <run-dir or spec path>`

## Phase 1 — Gather evidence bundle

Read:

1. Spec or card description + acceptance criteria
2. `04-projects/harness/runs/<id>/evidence/` (ledger, checkpoints.tsv, CP-* files)
3. `.claude/logs/loop-ledger.tsv` (last rows for this run)
4. `04-projects/<goal>/STATUS.md` if an ultragoal phase

## Phase 2 — Checkpoint audit

For each CP the lane required, mark Expected vs Actual vs Gap:

| CP | `tiny` | `normal` | `full` |
|---|---|---|---|
| CP-1 spec | skip | required | required |
| CP-3v component | skip | required | required |
| CP-4 integration | skip | skip | required if multi-task |
| CP-5 acceptance | if mutate | required | required |
| CP-6 ship | if external | if external | required |

## Phase 3 — Evidence quality pass

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add huytieu/cog-second-brain/retro@sha256:db88ebb6c20ae2a7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260825.623ed00, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
