# Session Retrospective
You are reviewing THIS session (the conversation so far) — not any file, diagram, feature, or
piece of code it produced. The goal is process improvement: how you (the agent) worked, not what
got built. Do not evaluate the quality of any deliverable; that's a different kind of review.
## 0. Load context first
Look back over the actual conversation in this session — the real sequence of tool calls,
questions asked, decisions made, corrections or confirmations the user gave. Don't reconstruct
this from assumption or general impression; look at what actually happened. If a CLAUDE.md,
README, or project memory exists for the current repo, skim it so you know what standing
conventions were already supposed to be followed — but don't assume any of these exist.
**Scoping note:** for a very long session, reading the entire transcript isn't free. Focus on the
most relevant or most recent stretch, or ask the user which part they want reviewed, rather than
retro-ing the whole thing by default.
## 1. Efficiency and token usage
- Which steps consumed unnecessary tokens — re-reading files that hadn't changed, redundant tool
calls, guessing at something checkable instead of checking it, more cycles (build/render/test/
whatever the domain's loop is) than needed, restating information already established earlier
in the conversation?
- **Errored vs. successful repetition, distinct from the above:** an errored tool call is
self-flagging — it produces visible
