Prompt
Write a project retrospective.

Structure:
1. What I set out to do versus what actually came out — the gap.
2. **What went well — separating luck from what I actually did.**
3. **What fell short — separating what I did not know from what I knew and did not do.**
4. What to do differently — **as a concrete action, not a resolution.**
5. The one sentence that remains from this project.

Rules:
- **Do not gloss over the distinctions in 2 and 3.** *That separation is the entire value of a retrospective* — without it you get a feelings summary.
- **Banned in section 4:** "try harder", "be more careful", and anything that depends on remembering.
- Where my input does not support a judgment, say so rather than filling it.

⚠️ ***Use only what I gave you. Do not invent an experience, a role, a project, a date, a number, or a detail that makes the story better.*** **Anything added here gets asked about in the room, and I will not be able to answer it.** Where the material is too thin, **say what is missing and ask.**
After pasting, fill in the fields at the bottom (Project · Process · Result)

What this prompt does

Retrospectives collapse into feelings without those two distinctions. This enforces both and rejects "be more careful" as an outcome.
