AI agents call snow_agile_retrospective to retrieve information from Serac without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool generates/retrieves analytical data about sprint performance metrics. It reads and aggregates existing sprint data without modifying, executing, or deleting anything. The word 'generate' here means producing a report/view, not creating new records.
From the tool's definition Generate sprint retrospective data: planned vs completed story points, defect rate, velocity trend, carry-over stories, and team performance metrics
