Maintain private retrospective findings, suggest recurring repository rules, and deliver authorized rule proposals through dedicated PRs.

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

# Agent retrospective

Run as a separate bounded pass, manually or from an external nightly job invoking the agent
host. In Claude Code invoke `/dotbrain:run-retro`. In Codex select this skill from the skill picker
and use its exposed name; `$run-retro` is not confirmed for plugin delivery. The host owns
scheduling and serialization. This skill supplies no scheduler or CLI loop runner.

Maintain private `RETRO.md` as plain Markdown. These are agent findings; human lessons belong
to `teach-me`. Add no human learning entries, checkpoint hooks, handoff steps, or session-start
injection. Public auto-delivery is disabled unless explicitly enabled in private `project.yaml`.
Otherwise suggest rules and destinations for the user's decision. Enabled delivery or explicit
proposal authorization permits its dedicated commit/push/PR; PR approval, merge, and release
remain human-owned.

## Stop before you start

If the private Brain or evidence sources cannot be identified, report the missing source
without creating a public substitute. If another writer owns the notebook, stop without
writing. All worktrees and external jobs share the same notebook. Findings never override

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add arminzou/dotbrain/run-retro@sha256:dfe9b5d4bba2e373

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261017.cd66642, 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.
