run-learning-retrospective — Claude Code skill: review learning
This skill runs a learning retrospective: checks finished work against goals, finds recurring blockers and adjusts the plan. Handy after a milestone closes.
npx skills add cursor/plugins --skill run-learning-retrospective -a claude-codeWhat run-learning-retrospective does
The skill fires once a learner has completed a milestone. It reviews what was actually done against the target outcomes, then looks for recurring blockers and weak concepts. From there it sorts what to reinforce now and what to defer.
You get a progress retrospective, an updated learning plan and a next milestone with a measurable checkpoint. The workflow leans on the Ask user tool, so it will ask you questions along the way. Keep your answers concrete or the review drifts into generalities.
Worth installing if you follow a learning plan and want it corrected by evidence rather than vibes. Install with npx skills add cursor/plugins --skill run-learning-retrospective -a claude-code; the skill file lands at ~/.claude/skills/run-learning-retrospective/SKILL.md.
