Quick scan of all active projects to see what's stalled, blocked, or needs attention.
What This Does
Checks each project in 04-Projects/ for:
- •Activity levels (when was project last touched?)
- •Week Priorities presence (does project have active tasks?)
- •Blockers (anything blocking progress?)
- •Next steps clarity (is the next action clear?)
Process
Step 1: Scan Projects
List all projects in 04-Projects/:
bash
ls -la 04-Projects/
Step 2: Check Each Project
For each project folder or file:
Activity Check:
- •Get last modification time
- •
7 days without activity = yellow
- •
14 days without activity = red
Week Priorities Presence:
- •Scan
00-Inbox/Weekly_Plans.mdfor project mentions - •No tasks for 2+ weeks = yellow
Blocker Check:
- •Look for "blocked", "waiting on", "stuck" in project notes
- •Any logged blocker = red
Next Step Clarity:
- •Check if there's a clear next action
- •No next step = yellow
Step 3: Output Dashboard
