Project Snapshot Skill

Purpose

Generate quick status overview of all active engineering projects, showing progress, blockers, and immediate priorities.

Usage

•/project-snapshot - All active projects
•/project-snapshot all - All projects including paused/completed
•/project-snapshot [project-name] - Detailed snapshot for specific project

Instructions

When this skill is invoked:

•
Find all project files using Glob:
code
```
Project*.md
```
•
Read each project file to extract:
- •Project title and status
- •Related ADRs
- •Related tasks (completed and pending)
- •Recent meetings
- •Key stakeholders
- •Current blockers/risks
- •DPIA status (if applicable)
- •Last modified date
•
Filter by status (unless 'all' specified):
- •Active projects (status: active, in progress, or null)
- •Exclude paused and completed unless 'all' flag used
•
For each project, assess:
- •Health status: 🟢 On track, 🟡 At risk, 🔴 Blocked
- •Recent activity (meetings/tasks in last 7 days)
- •Pending actions and priorities
- •Compliance status (DPIA, Cyber, etc.)
•
Generate formatted snapshot:
