project-scaffold

You can set up a standardized research project structure by running the initialization command, which generates canonical directories and metadata files like project.yaml and progress.yaml to ensure consistent organization and seamless cross-skill handoffs.

The best way to organize an existing research project without moving files is to use the adopt mode. This maps your current project layout to the canonical structure and generates the required metadata files for cross-skill coordination.

Yes, you can create project scaffolds for qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods research workflows. The setup process prompts you to select your project type and generates the appropriate standardized directory structure.

You can track progress and view status for a scaffolded research project by running the status command. This generates a status dashboard and keeps the central README and progress.yaml files up-to-date with your current project overview.

The metadata files needed for reproducible research workflows include project.yaml, progress.yaml, and a README.md. These files define canonical paths, track project status, and enable consistent cross-skill coordination.
