Aurora Coach and retrospective tools
A retrospective is one ceremony at one moment. Aurora Coach runs the full improvement loop, every period, and uses retro signal as one input.
| Retro tools | Aurora Coach | |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | One ceremony | The full improvement loop |
| When | A moment | Every period, continuous |
| Grounding | The room’s memory | Context plus delivery signal |
| After the retro | Notes | Tracked commitments, re-evaluated |
| Six domains | No | Yes |
Keep the ceremony. Aurora Coach carries what comes out of it into the loop, period after period.
Is Aurora Coach a retrospective tool?
No. A retro is one ceremony at one moment. Aurora Coach runs the full continuous improvement loop every period: sense, analyze, recommend, refine, commit, execute, re-evaluate. Retro themes are useful input, not the whole practice.
Can we keep running retros with Aurora Coach?
Yes. Keep the ceremony if it works. Aurora Coach folds that signal into a grounded analysis and carries the commitments forward, so the work between retros does not fall away.
