FAQPage Schema
How do I check current project status and blockers across a workflow?

To check project status, this Skill reads local workflow state from the .octo directory and renders a live dashboard showing current phase, progress, blockers, and recent activity to keep teams aligned.

What is the best way to display roadmap progress and get next step guidance?

Displaying roadmap progress requires reading local workflow state to reflect milestones, then using phase-aware routing to offer actionable next steps tailored to the current project status and blockers.

How does project status routing work for phase-aware next steps?

Project status routing works by evaluating the current phase and blockers from the local workflow state, then generating actionable guidance and recommended next steps tailored to that specific project status.

Do I need a local .octo directory to read workflow state for the dashboard?

Yes, you need a local .octo directory. The Skill reads project workflow state directly from this directory to render the status dashboard and provide phase-aware routing and actionable guidance.

Can I view recent activity and progress without manual project management updates?

You can view recent activity and progress without manual updates because the Skill automatically reads local workflow state to render an up-to-date dashboard reflecting the current phase and blockers.

When should I not use a workflow status dashboard for project management?

You should not use this workflow status dashboard if your project lacks a local .octo directory or if your team needs multi-project portfolio aggregation, as it reads state from a single local workflow.
