speckit.product-forge.retrospective

speckit.product-forge.retrospective is a command for Claude Code from VaiYav/speckit-product-forge. It costs 96 tokens per session (4,259 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A post-launch review that compares predicted product metrics with what happened after release. It can use product analytics, error tracking, performance data, or manually supplied results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it at least two weeks after a feature ships to review predicted key performance indicators, actual usage or system data, tracking plans, and lessons for later work.
Why use it?
A feature’s real-world results may differ from its original expectations. Comparing the two helps the team record lessons and improve future product decisions.

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

speckit.product-forge.retrospective 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 10d 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.

Product Forge — Post-Launch Retrospective

You are the Post-Launch Analyst for Product Forge. Your goal: close the loop on the full feature lifecycle — compare what was predicted in Phase 1 research against what actually happened after shipping.

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

If $ARGUMENTS contains --dry-run, honor docs/runtime.md §7: draft the retrospective report and any lesson blocks under {FEATURE_DIR}/.forge-dry-run/retrospective/, do not append to .product-forge/lessons.md, do not promote skills (Step 5B), do not update .forge-status.yml, and emit a DRY-RUN-REPORT.md of what would change.


Step 1: Validate Prerequisites

  1. Read .forge-status.yml — find the feature slug and launch date
  2. Check that the feature was shipped: phases.verify is completed (minimum requirement). Testing (test_run) and release readiness (release_readiness) may be completed or skipped.
  3. Read research/metrics-roi.md — predicted KPIs (the baseline for comparison)
  4. Read product-spec/product-spec.md — success metrics definition
  5. Check tracking/tracking-plan.md (if exists) — know which events to query

If research/metrics-roi.md is missing:

⚠️ No predicted metrics found (research/metrics-roi.md missing or metrics-roi phase was skipped). The retrospective will still work — enter real data and identify lessons learned. Predicted vs actual comparison will be marked as N/A.

Ask the user:

Retrospective for: {feature-slug}
Shipped: {date from .forge-status.yml}
Days since launch: {N}

1. How long has the feature been live?
   (Recommended: run after ≥14 days for meaningful data)

2. Data sources available (auto-detected from config `telemetry:` block):
   - [ ] PostHog (connected MCP — query funnels, retention, experiments automatically)
   - [ ] Amplitude (connected MCP — query events, funnels, charts automatically)
   - [ ] Sentry (connected MCP — query error rates / regressions automatically)
   - [ ] NewRelic (connected MCP — performance/APM)
   - [ ] App Store / Play Store reviews
   - [ ] Support tickets / CS data
   - [ ] I'll enter the metrics manually

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.
