SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of clear, actionable project status reports by synthesizing git history, session documents, and current work-in-progress so teams can quickly understand progress, blockers, and next steps.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Commit analysis: Summarizes recent commits and groups them by scope using CC_COMMIT_SCOPES to reveal active work streams.
  • Session and planning integration: Reads recent session documents and planning docs to connect code changes with documented context and planned tasks.
  • WIP detection & recommendations: Detects uncommitted or untracked files indicating in-progress work and generates prioritized next actions and continuation points.

Quick Start

Run the project-status skill to analyze the last 30 days of commits, recent session documents, and the working tree and produce a prioritized status report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a project status report from git history?

Generate a project status report by analyzing git commits, session documents, and work-in-progress state. The report summarizes recent work streams, identifies blockers, and recommends prioritized next actions across a configurable time window.

How do I track work in progress and blockers in a software repository?

Track work in progress and blockers by detecting uncommitted or untracked files in the working tree. The analysis connects these WIP states with recent session documents to produce continuation points and actionable recommendations.

Can I group recent git commits by scope to understand active work streams?

Group recent git commits by scope by applying CC_COMMIT_SCOPES configurations from cognitive-core.conf. This classification reveals active work streams and summarizes recent progress within the project status report.

What is the best way to summarize uncommitted work and next actions for a development project?

Summarize uncommitted work by reading the git working tree and session documents. The process detects in-progress changes, classifies them by scope, and generates prioritized next actions to guide development continuation.

Does the project status report integrate session docs with git logs?

The project status report integrates session docs with git logs by reading recent session documents and planning docs. This connects documented context and planned tasks with code changes to provide a comprehensive view of project progress.

What time frame does the project status analysis cover by default?

The project status analysis covers a configurable time window, defaulting to the last 30 days of commits. It analyzes git history, recent session documents, and the working tree within this period to produce the status report.
