Retrospection conversation DM flow #27

Description

@sunba91-su

Goal

Implement the conversational DM collection flow for team retrospectives, similar to daily standups but with retro-specific questions and structure.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Register commands under /standup namespace:
    • /standup retro start — starts a retro session for today
    • /standup retro add <column> <text> — adds an item to a retro column
    • /standup retro submit — finishes and saves retro
    • /standup retro cancel — aborts retro (deletes partial)
  • Or create a separate /retro command namespace (preferred):
    • /retro start — starts a retro session
    • /retro add <text> — adds to current column (DM walks through columns one at a time)
    • /retro submit — finishes
    • /retro cancel — aborts
  • DM conversation flow (reuse or extend convstate):
    • Bot: "Starting retro for team X. Column 1: What went well? (reply with your item)"
    • User replies
    • Bot: "Column 2: What could be improved?"
    • ...repeat for each column
    • Bot: "✅ Retro submitted! Thanks."
  • Permission: team member or lead (same as standup submit)
  • Multi-team support: --team flag for team selection
  • Duplicate prevention: one retro per team per day (re-open allowed? optional)
  • Update internal/commands/help.go with new commands

Technical Notes

  • Reuse convstate.Manager — add a Type field to Conversation to distinguish standup vs retro
  • Or create a separate retro conversation manager — evaluate tradeoffs
  • Retro columns come from the session (created at session start via defaults or team config)
  • Store items as they are added (immediate persistence, not just in-memory)

Dependencies

  • Blocked by: Retrospection data model and store
