synthesis-daily-rituals

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides rigorous, dependency-ordered day-start and day-end checklists to prevent context drift, missed PRs, stale action items, and uncommitted work across synthesis engineering projects. It codifies context optimization, Slack transcript capture, meeting processing, PR triage, daily action plan creation, and final repo verification so work is actionable, grounded, and safely persisted.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Context Optimization & Archival: Archive long CONTEXT.md entries to sessions/ and REFERENCE.md using a two-phase commit before truncation to preserve provenance.
• Slack Sync & Transcript Handling: Run the synthesis-slack-sync protocol to verify auth, read channels and threads, save transcripts, and extract action items and decisions.
• PR Queue Triage & Integration Sweep: Detect pending reviews, prioritize integration, and apply adopt-and-adapt merge patterns with reviewer attribution.
• Daily Action Plan Authoring: Generate prioritized daily plans that include grounded draft messages with thread locators, waiting-on-others tables, and a canonical file structure for live updates.
• Commit & Repo Guard Protocols: Commit and push only repos and files touched in the invocation, enforce pre-commit checks, and run a final repo_sync_check to ensure zero uncommitted or unpushed changes.
• Observer / Vacation Mode: Perform passive full syncs, produce "Things to Know" plans, update context, and commit without sending messages.
• Use cases: morning routine to set up focus and sync, mid-day catch-up to refresh plans and threads, end-of-day archival and verification, and observer-mode monitoring during vacation.

Quick Start

Create today's action plan by running a full Slack sync, update CONTEXT.md with new items and actionables, extract action items into projects/_daily-plans/YYYY-MM-DD.md, and commit the touched files.
