What it does

Raw creep numbers don't tell you why scope grew. This agent-driven workflow collects the tickets that entered the Linear cycle after commit, then has the CEO agent analyze patterns — which requesters, which projects, which kinds of work — and write a short retro narrative explaining what happened and what to change next sprint. The narrative is delivered to the team for the retro discussion.

When to use it

Use it when you want more than a tally: a thoughtful, human-readable read on the drivers of scope creep and concrete suggestions, ready to drop into a retrospective.

How it works

  1. 1A scheduled trigger fires at sprint close.
  2. 2The flow pulls all post-commit additions to the active Linear cycle with their requesters, labels, and points.
  3. 3The CEO agent reasons over the set to identify the dominant creep sources and recurring themes.
  4. 4It drafts a concise retro narrative with findings and two to three recommendations.
  5. 5The narrative is posted to the team's Slack channel for the retrospective.

Set it up

What you configure once, before turning it on.

  1. 1
    Connect LinearIssues, projects, cycles, triage.
  2. 2
    Connect OpenAIModels, embeddings, files.
  3. 3
    Connect SlackChannels, DMs, threads, mentions.
  4. 4
    Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
  5. 5
    Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
  6. 6
    Test, then turn it onRun once against a sample, confirm the output, then enable the trigger.
