Jira Retrospective Action Item Follow-Through Audit
Track retrospective actions in Jira across sprints to see which were completed, dropped or vague, and redesign how the team captures them.
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
[VERIFY] is an editorial flag, not a blank to fill. Wherever the prompt shows [VERIFY], check that item against a reliable source before you use it.
Please help me audit whether our retrospectives lead to change. I will paste the action items from the last several retrospectives and what happened to them. I want an honest, non-judgemental report. Inputs: the retrospective actions with date, wording, owner, and Jira key if it exists [RETRO_ACTIONS], the current status or outcome of each [ACTION_OUTCOMES], the number of retrospectives covered and their dates [RETRO_DATES], and the recurring complaints I hear [RECURRING_COMPLAINTS]. Create: (1) a table with columns Retro date, Action, Owner named?, Has a Jira issue?, Specific and checkable?, Outcome (Done / In progress / Dropped / Unknown), Age in days (show arithmetic); (2) counts and the completion rate across all retrospectives, plus per retro; (3) a list of actions that repeat across retros in different words; (4) vague actions rewritten as specific, small ones with a placeholder for owner and date; (5) a comparison of recurring complaints with the actions actually taken, noting the complaints with no action; (6) a simple tracking approach: where actions live in Jira, a label or board to use, and where they are reviewed at the start of the next retrospective; (7) a rule that limits the team to a maximum of [MAX_ACTIONS] actions per retro. Guardrails: do not assign blame. Do not assume that unfinished means bad; sometimes dropping is right, and the team should say so. Do not create issues for me; list proposals. Mark Jira feature statements [VERIFY]. Add a worked example with invented numbers: 18 actions over 6 retros, 7 done. Show 38.9 percent completion.
