A sprint retrospective agenda for scrum teams running facilitated retros in Taskade. The agent clusters cards into themes, surfaces patterns across recent sprints, and turns every action item into a tracked task in next sprint's backlog.
What's Included
- Retro Board: Three columns (Went Well, Didn't Go Well, Action Items) on a Board view
- Theme Clustering Agent: AI agent reads cards and clusters into 3-5 themes per retro plus cross-sprint patterns
- Sprint History Database: Table view with prior retro themes, attendance, and action-item completion rate
- Action Item Automation: When a card moves to "Action Items," the automation creates a tracked task in next sprint's backlog
- Mood Tracker: Team mood (1-5) per sprint with trend
- Facilitator Guide: Built-in scrum master checklist
Why This Template Wins
- Memory across retros: Each retro feeds the Sprint History database so the agent surfaces patterns recurring across the last 4-8 sprints
- Action items don't die: Automation guarantees every action item becomes a tracked next-sprint task with an owner
- Async-first contribution: Cards added before the meeting so distributed teammates participate equally
How to Use
- Clone this template into your Taskade workspace
- Customize column headers, mood scale, and team roster
- Connect Jira, Linear, Slack
- Train the Theme Clustering Agent on your team's vocabulary
- Set up automation triggers for action-item creation and theme summary
FAQ
Does this work for scrum and kanban retros?
Yes. Scrum retros use the sprint cadence; kanban retros use a date-range cadence (weekly, bi-weekly). The theme agent clusters by date range either way.
Can the agent identify systemic blockers?
Yes. The agent reads multi-sprint themes and surfaces blockers crossing sprints — useful for systemic issues that need engineering or product investment.
What plan supports a multi-team scrum org?
Pro ($16/mo annual) handles the team. Business ($40/mo) adds cross-team analytics.
