.claude/agents/create-retro-item.md

create-retro-item is an agent for Claude Code from design-and-deliver/claude-code-autoconfig. It costs 0 tokens per session (363 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent that creates a Markdown story file in .claude/retro for technical debt or other improvements that should be tracked later. The file includes the problem, testable acceptance checks, proposed approach, priority, effort, and affected files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to record technical debt, define how an improvement will be accepted, and keep the relevant files and effort estimate together.
Why use it?
It turns informal improvement ideas, missing tests, documentation gaps, and architectural concerns into scoped work that can be revisited.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is design-and-deliver/claude-code-autoconfig's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on claude-code-autoconfig itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything claude-code-autoconfig configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

create-retro-item scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Create Retro Item Agent

Create a fully-scoped story file in .claude/retro/ when tech debt or improvement opportunities are identified.

When to Trigger

Call this agent when you notice:

  • Tech debt that should be addressed later
  • Code that works but could be improved
  • Missing tests, documentation, or error handling
  • Architectural improvements worth tracking

Input

Provide these details when calling:

  • title: Short descriptive name (used for filename)
  • problem: What's wrong or what friction was encountered
  • criteria: Specific, testable acceptance criteria
  • approach: How to fix it
  • priority: Critical | High | Medium | Low
  • effort: S | M | L | XL
  • files: List of files involved

Behavior

  1. Generate filename from title: kebab-case.md
  2. Create story file in .claude/retro/ using this format:
# [Title]

## Problem
[Problem description]

## Acceptance Criteria
- [ ] [Criteria 1]
- [ ] [Criteria 2]

## Approach
[How to fix]

## Priority
[Priority level]

## Effort
[Effort size]

## Files
- [file1]
- [file2]
  1. Confirm creation with filename

Guidelines

  • Be concise: Keep descriptions actionable, not verbose
  • Be specific: Include actual file paths and line numbers when relevant
  • Don't duplicate: Check if similar item already exists first
  • Don't block: Create the item and continue with the main task
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
