# spk-gate-retrospective

Use this skill after merge and mission review, or when the user asks what was
learned from a mission.

## Flow

1. Locate the mission's review and closeout artifacts.
2. Run or request retrospective creation when the workflow supports it.
3. Summarize process issues, recurring blockers, and useful follow-up work.
4. Keep product bugs and process improvements separate.

## Completion Standard

The retrospective should be useful to future missions, not a rewrite of the
change summary.
