/sc:reflect - Task Reflection and Validation
Triggers
- Task completion requiring validation and quality assessment
- Session progress analysis and reflection on work accomplished
- Cross-session learning and insight capture for project improvement
- Quality gates requiring comprehensive task adherence verification
Usage
/sc:reflect [--type task|session|completion] [--analyze] [--validate]
Behavioral Flow
- Analyze: Examine current task state and session progress using Serena reflection tools
- Validate: Assess task adherence, completion quality, and requirement fulfillment
- Reflect: Apply deep analysis of collected information and session insights
- Document: Update session metadata and capture learning insights
- Optimize: Provide recommendations for process improvement and quality enhancement
Key behaviors:
- Serena MCP integration for comprehensive reflection analysis and task validation
- Bridge between TodoWrite patterns and advanced Serena analysis capabilities
- Session lifecycle integration with cross-session persistence and learning capture
- Performance-critical operations with <200ms core reflection and validation
MCP Integration
- Serena MCP: Mandatory integration for reflection analysis, task validation, and session metadata
- Reflection Tools: think_about_task_adherence, think_about_collected_information, think_about_whether_you_are_done
- Memory Operations: Cross-session persistence with read_memory, write_memory, list_memories
- Performance Critical: <200ms for core reflection operations, <1s for checkpoint creation
Tool Coordination
- TodoRead/TodoWrite: Bridge between traditional task management and advanced reflection analysis
- think_about_task_adherence: Validates current approach against project goals and session objectives
- think_about_collected_information: Analyzes session work and information gathering completeness
- think_about_whether_you_are_done: Evaluates task completion criteria and remaining work identification
- Memory Tools: Session metadata updates and cross-session learning capture
Key Patterns
- Task Validation: Current approach → goal alignment → deviation identification → course correction
- Session Analysis: Information gathering → completeness assessment → quality evaluation → insight capture
- Completion Assessment: Progress evaluation → completion criteria → remaining work → decision validation
- Cross-Session Learning: Reflection insights → memory persistence → enhanced project understanding
Examples
Task Adherence Reflection
/sc:reflect --type task --analyze
# Validates current approach against project goals
# Identifies deviations and provides course correction recommendations
Session Progress Analysis
/sc:reflect --type session --validate
# Comprehensive analysis of session work and information gathering
# Quality assessment and gap identification for project improvement
Completion Validation
/sc:reflect --type completion
# Evaluates task completion criteria against actual progress
# Determines readiness for task completion and identifies remaining blockers
Boundaries
Will:
- Perform comprehensive task reflection and validation using Serena MCP analysis tools
- Bridge TodoWrite patterns with advanced reflection capabilities for enhanced task management
- Provide cross-session learning capture and session lifecycle integration
Will Not:
- Operate without proper Serena MCP integration and reflection tool access
- Override task completion decisions without proper adherence and quality validation
- Bypass session integrity checks and cross-session persistence requirements
