Produces a structured after-action review by comparing what was expected against what actually happened, diagnosing why the gaps occurred, and converting them into specific owned sustain-and-change actions. Use when a project, launch, sprint, or incident has finished and you want to turn the outcome into learning, not a status update.
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
<!-- thinking-framework-skills | https://github.com/product-on-purpose/thinking-framework-skills | Apache-2.0 --> # After Action Review Most retrospectives are an unstructured "how did it go?" that produces venting and vague lessons. The After Action Review imposes the structure that actually carries the benefit: compare what was expected to what actually happened, diagnose why the gaps occurred (in both directions), and convert that into what to sustain and what to change, specifically and with owners. The expected-vs-actual comparison is load-bearing; without a recorded expectation there is nothing to learn against, only hindsight narrative. The output is an **after-action review**, and it must be blameless to work. ## When to Use - A project, launch, sprint, experiment, or incident has finished. - There was a real expectation to compare the outcome against (or you can reconstruct it honestly). - The team wants to learn, not assign fault. ## When NOT to Use - Before the event (that is a premortem). - As a status update or a summary of what shipped. - When it will become blame (it stops working the moment people fear fault). …

How to install
mdr add product-on-purpose/thinking-framework-skills/think-after-action-review@sha256:39a49734d5fe5c02The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
