What it does

Long Task Retrospective is an agent skill from suriyel/longtaskforagent. Use after ST Go verdict when retrospective records exist and user authorized feedback — consolidate records and POST to REST API

Its SKILL.md is about 970 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `prompts/reflection-prompt.md`).

It sits in Product & Project Management, covering Retrospectives.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Retrospectives

Example prompts

  • “/long-task-retrospective”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Gate Check
  2. Read Records
  3. Summary
  4. User Confirmation
  5. Upload
  6. Cleanup

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ca67fe1. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Long Task Retrospective loads about 969 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 369 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~38
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~969

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 369 words (~969 tokens).

“Invoked conditionally by long-task-st Step 12.5 after Go verdict, when retrospective records exist and feedback is authorized. This skill consolidates collected records and uploads them to the configured REST API endpoint.”
