SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? After updating a project's status.md file, it is easy for stale items, mixed facts and guesses, or formatting drift to creep in. This Skill performs a dedicated quality review of a project's status.md so the document stays readable and consistent for the next update cycle. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Quality Review: Checks that sections like overview, current status, blockers, open questions, next observations, sources, and change history match the standard status.md template and the projects/README.md update rules. - Content Hygiene Checks: Detects decided or completed items still listed as open, facts mixed with speculation, pasted raw logs, relative dates, and non-relinkable sources such as pasted conversation summaries. - Safe In-Place Fixes: Applies safe corrections directly (formatting, moving stale items, removing linkless sources) while leaving judgment calls in a "points needing confirmation" section instead of guessing. - Use Case: After updating a project's status.md from the week's Slack and Linear activity, run this review to confirm the file still follows the vault's format, that the sources section only contains link-backed references, and that the change history records only what actually changed. ## Quick Start Use the review-project-status skill to review the status.md of my current project folder and report any fixes or points needing confirmation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I review a project status.md file for quality?▼

Run the review on a single project folder's status.md after updating it. The review checks each section against the standard template and update rules, applies safe fixes like formatting and stale-item cleanup, and returns a structured report of fixes and open questions.

What does a project status document review check for?▼

It checks that overview, current status, blockers, open questions, next observations, sources, and change history are present and consistent, that facts are separated from speculation, that sources are link-backed Markdown references, and that dates are absolute rather than relative.

Does the review fetch external information like Slack or Linear?▼

No. The review is strictly limited to the status.md file content and does not read external sources, make new priority judgments, or rewrite the document from scratch. Items needing external verification are listed as points needing confirmation.

What happens to sources without links in status.md?▼

Linkless entries such as pasted conversation summaries are removed from the sources section. Their key context is merged into the overview, status, or change history sections, and items whose links are unknown are moved to open questions for follow-up.

When should I not use this status review?▼

Do not use it to create a status.md from scratch, to fetch fresh project information, or to decide project priorities. It only reviews an existing, recently updated status.md within one project folder.
