Execute the BMAD retrospective workflow for epic {{story_id}}.

{{skill_line}}{{workflow_line}}{{instructions_line}}Run the retrospective in #YOLO mode. Assume the user will NOT provide any input to the retrospective directly. For ALL prompts that expect user input, make reasonable autonomous decisions based on:

  • Sprint status data
  • Story files and their dev notes
  • Previous retrospective if available
  • Architecture and PRD documents

Key behaviors:

  • When asked to confirm epic number: auto-confirm based on sprint-status
  • When asked for observations: synthesize from story analysis
  • When asked for decisions: make data-driven choices
  • When presented menus: select the most appropriate option based on context
  • Skip all "WAIT for user" instructions - continue autonomously

After the retrospective has run and created documents, you MUST:

  1. Create a list of documentation that may need updates based on implementation learnings
  2. For each doc in the list, verify whether updates are actually needed by:
    • Reading the current doc content
    • Comparing against actual implementation code
    • Checking for discrepancies between doc and code
  3. Update docs that have verified discrepancies
  4. Discard proposed updates where code matches docs

Focus on these doc types:

  • Architecture decisions that changed during implementation
  • API documentation that diverged from specs
  • README files with outdated instructions
  • Configuration documentation

EVERYTHING SHOULD BE AUTOMATED. THIS IS NOT A SESSION WHERE YOU SHOULD BE EXPECTING USER INPUT.
