+
+`dbt retry` re-executes the last `dbt` command from the node point of failure. If the previously executed `dbt` command was successful, `retry` will finish as `no operation`. 
+
+Retry works with the following commands:
+
+- [`build`](/reference/commands/build)
+- [`compile`](/reference/commands/compile)
+- [`seed`](/reference/commands/seed)
+- [`snapshot`](/reference/commands/build)
+- [`test`](/reference/commands/test)
+- [`run`](/reference/commands/run)
+- [`run-operation`](/reference/commands/run-operation)
+
+`dbt retry` references [run_results.json](/reference/artifacts/run-results-json) to determine where to start. Executing `dbt retry` without correcting the previous failures will garner <Term id="idempotent" /> results.
+
+`dbt retry` reuses the [selectors](/reference/node-selection/yaml-selectors) from the previously executed command.
