FAQPage Schema
How do I get a project status dashboard for my writing and research tasks?

To get a project status dashboard, you can aggregate your BRD status, corpus statistics, research progress, and writing progress into a single unified view. This reduces manual reporting and provides actionable next-step recommendations.

What is the best way to track corpus statistics and research progress in a project management workflow?

Tracking corpus statistics and research progress is best handled by querying your SurrealDB database to aggregate BRD presence and task completion. This generates a comprehensive read-only overview of your project management workflow.

Can I use SurrealDB to check project health and identify configuration blockers?

Yes, you can use SurrealDB to check project health by validating configuration and inspecting BRD presence. This surfaces database connectivity issues and configuration blockers early without modifying any project data.

Does the project status dashboard modify my data when querying research and writing progress?

No, the project status dashboard operates as a read-only reporting tool. It satisfies reporting requirements by querying SurrealDB and inspecting your BRD while strictly avoiding any data modification.

How do I know the recommended next action for my writing project?

To find the recommended next action for your writing project, evaluate the current BRD presence, sources, research tasks, and writing tasks. The system computes suggested commands based on this current state to keep your project moving.
