Project Status Reports

    Get Started with This Skill

    Overview

    Create and update structured project status reports from meetings, messages, and documents. Extracts status updates into markdown reports with summary, problems, risks, and actions sections. Supports single-team, compiled, and multi-team report formats.

    Getting Started

    Add your source materials to the project workspace, then activate the Project Status Reports skill. The agent will guide you through the process step by step.

    Example Conversation

    You: Create a status report for the Platform team from these Slack updates and the standup notes I’ve pasted.

    Agent: I’ve read the Slack thread and standup notes. I’ll structure a single-team status report. Which team name should I use for the report title and file name — “Platform” or something else? And should I infer RAG status (on track / risk-concern / problem) from the content, or do you want to set it explicitly?

    You: Use “Platform”. Infer RAG from the content.

    Agent: I’ve created platform-status-report-2024-10-15.md with your projects: API v2 (in progress, on track), Dashboard (in progress, risk-concern — design dependency), and Auth migration (scheduled). Each section has summary, on-track bullets, problems, risks, and actions from the sources. I didn’t add anything that wasn’t in your inputs. Want to add or change any project or move something to Done?

    Platform - Status Report - 2024-10-15

    This document shares work status from Platform as of 15-10-2024.

    API v2

    • status: in progress
    • rag status: on track

    API v2 spec is done; first endpoints are in development. Backend and frontend agreed on contract; staging will be ready by end of week.

    On track:

    • Spec and contract: Signed off; implementation started.
    • Staging: On track for Friday.

    Problems:

    • None.

    Risks and Concerns:

    • Design dependency for docs portal: If design slips, we can still ship API; only the docs site would move.

    Actions:

    • Deploy to staging by Friday.
    • Update API changelog.
