FAQPage Schema

How do I get a consolidated project status view from scattered markdown files?▼

To get a consolidated project status view, this Skill aggregates phase, progress, blockers, and decisions from STATE.md, ROADMAP.md, and SUMMARY.md into a single readable markdown block for quick reviews.

Does this project status tool modify my roadmap or state files when generating reports?▼

This project status tool does not modify your files; it operates as a read-only aggregator, safely computing progress and rendering a status block without altering STATE.md, ROADMAP.md, or SUMMARY.md.

What's the best way to track project blockers and decisions for daily standups?▼

The best way to track project blockers and decisions for standups is using a read-only status view that extracts recent decisions, current blockers, and a recommended next action directly from your markdown project tracking files.

How do I calculate project progress and phase from a STATE.md file?▼

Project progress and phase are calculated by reading the current plan and progress markers within STATE.md, then aggregating that data with roadmap context to compute the overall project completion stage.

Can I use this status reporting Skill without a ROADMAP.md file in my repository?▼

This Skill is designed to read ROADMAP.md for project overview and SUMMARY.md for context, so using it without these specific markdown files will result in an incomplete project status view.

Why does my project status show missing decisions and next actions during a review?▼

Your project status shows missing decisions and next actions because the Skill reads recent decision history from your tracked markdown files; if those files lack decision entries, the status view cannot display them.
