Most companies write retrospectives months after the work shipped, when the detail is gone and the lessons have softened. PortLev Labs is the opposite: a build note captured the day the work shipped, while the decisions are still fresh.
Yuri writes the first record and signs off on every note before it publishes.
Every build note on this page is the record of what got built, why, how, and what an operator would need to replicate it. The "Reproducibility" section is the most important: if you cannot rebuild the thing from the note, the note failed its own audit.
