Use the decision framework to ask if your task has a fixed deadline and specific deliverables. If it does, it is a project; if it is a repeatable process like a weekly report, it is a skill, avoiding common anti-patterns.

Yes, the Nexus project lifecycle includes an archived state. The workflow tutorial walks through all lifecycle states from planning to archived, enabling correct project creation and progress tracking management.

A common anti-pattern is misclassifying repeatable workflows as finite projects, such as creating duplicate weekly report projects. The tutorial provides decision frameworks and examples to eliminate this work misclassification.

Yes, the tutorial covers onboarding scenarios for new Nexus users. It teaches standard project folder structure, lifecycle states, and progress tracking workflows to enable correct project creation and management.
