brownfield-retrospective
80 / 100 · Low risk
Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.
By affaan-m/ECC (GitHub) · coding · 300,508 stars · scanned at commit d2ef268
Run the ECC engineering process retroactively against an existing project slice. Audit current state, reconstruct past decisions, produce a four-axis gap register (thinking, coding practice, missing features, technology selection), then execute fixes forward through the plan-TDD-review pipeline. Use when adopting ECC mid-project, taking over an inherited codebase, or asking what was missed and what would have been built differently from day one.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'brownfield-retrospective' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'brownfield-retrospective' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named brownfield-retrospective already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/affaan-m/ECC' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'd2ef2680594f9a17526a6e1a2e18b3d242c5d17b' -- 'skills/brownfield-retrospective' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/brownfield-retrospective' ~/.agents/skills/'brownfield-retrospective' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'brownfield-retrospective' ~/.claude/skills/'brownfield-retrospective' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
