Weekly Review
When to use
Use this skill for weekly review when you need to close open loops and reset priorities. The expected result is a weekly review with a short priority list.
Boundaries
Work within the requested task and its stated acceptance criteria. Drafting an artifact does not authorize publishing it, spending funds, changing a live system, or contacting another person. Identify any such action separately before taking it.
Inputs
Inspect unfinished tasks, commitments, calendar, and waiting items. Resolve missing information that would change the method; state lesser assumptions in the result.
Method
- Diagnose. Inventory the actual commitments, deadlines, available blocks of time, and the work that must be deferred.
- Decide. Decide what to do, delegate, defer, or drop.
- Produce. Build a weekly review with a short priority list from the inspected material; keep assumptions distinguishable from observed facts.
Decision rules
- Choose a next action small enough to start, then place a review point where new information can change the plan.
- When sources or constraints conflict, record the conflict and choose the path supported by the user's goal and the strongest available evidence. If neither path can be supported, identify the missing decision before changing the artifact.
Domain rules
- Translate the goal into actions that fit available time and energy.
- Limit the plan to an achievable next step and a realistic review date.
Verification
Confirm every retained commitment has a next action. Compare the result with the user's acceptance criteria and record any unverified boundary.
Provide a realistic schedule or checklist with completion criteria; reject plans that require more time than exists.
Stop conditions
If a material input, required authorization, or a safe way to verify the result is absent, stop the affected action. Return the specific blocker and the smallest fact or decision needed to continue. Do not report an unrun check as passed.
Output
Provide a weekly review with a short priority list. Include the decisive evidence and actual verification result. Name any artifact location and unresolved issue that affects its use.
