SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents you from forgetting assignments and outdated work by syncing your task list with external sources and reconciling what you remember against what shows up in your current activity.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Task synchronization & diffing: Compares open tasks from connected project trackers and GitHub issues against TASKS.md, then offers to add new tasks, complete finished ones, or flag potential staleness.
  • Stale and overdue triage: Reviews active tasks for past due dates, long inactivity, and missing context (like unknown people or projects) and routes items to done, reschedule, or someday.
  • Memory gap discovery & enrichment: Decodes entities referenced in tasks, asks about unknown terms, updates people/projects/glossary memory, and enriches memory using links, status changes, relationships, and deadlines found in tasks and activity.
  • Optional comprehensive scan: When run with comprehensive mode, deep-scans chat, email, documents, and calendar to surface missed todos and suggest new memories.

Quick Start

Run /productivity:update to sync your tasks from your connected project sources, triage stale items, and fill any missing people or project context by asking before updates.

FAQPage Schema
How do I sync tasks from GitHub issues with a local TASKS.md file?▼

To sync tasks from GitHub issues with a local TASKS.md file, this Skill compares external assignments against your existing list, computes diffs, and offers interactive decisions to add new tasks or complete finished ones.

What is the best way to triage overdue and stale tasks in a project tracker?▼

Triage overdue and stale tasks by reviewing active items for past due dates and long inactivity, then routing them to done, reschedule, or someday categories based on interactive decisions.

How does memory gap discovery work for unknown entities referenced in tasks?▼

Memory gap discovery works by decoding unknown people, projects, or acronyms referenced in tasks, asking you for clarification, and updating people, projects, and glossary memory files accordingly.

Can I scan chat and email to discover missed todos?▼

Yes, you can scan chat and email to discover missed todos by running the Skill in comprehensive mode, which deep-scans chat, email, documents, and calendar to surface missed items and suggest new memories.

Do I need a specific project tracker to reconcile external assignments?▼

No specific tracker is required, as the Skill reconciles external assignments from connected project trackers and GitHub issues against local TASKS.md files, computing diffs to present interactive decisions.

Why are unknown acronyms showing up during task synchronization?▼

Unknown acronyms show up during task synchronization because the Skill actively identifies memory gaps by decoding unknown people, projects, or terms referenced in your tasks before asking you to update memory files.
