dvcrn Project Tracker
Track every project in one place. Know what's moving, what's stalled, and what to kill.
by The Agent Ledger — theagentledger.com
Setup
Create projects/ directory and projects/DASHBOARD.md:
# Project Dashboard
Last updated: [date]
| Project | Status | Priority | Next Action | Due |
|---------|--------|----------|-------------|-----|
## Active Projects
<!-- Agent maintains this section -->
## On Hold
<!-- Paused but not abandoned -->
## Completed
<!-- Archive of finished work -->
How It Works
Adding a Project
When the user mentions a new project, create projects/<project-name>.md:
# Project: [Name]
**Status:** 🟢 Active | 🟡 On Hold | 🔴 Blocked | ✅ Done
**Priority:** P1 (critical) | P2 (important) | P3 (nice-to-have)
**Started:** [date]
**Target:** [deadline or "ongoing"]
**One-liner:** [what this project is in one sentence]
## Milestones
- [ ] Milestone 1 — [description] — [target date]
- [ ] Milestone 2 — [description] — [target date]
## Progress Log
### [date]
- What happened today
## Decisions
| Date | Decision | Rationale |
|------|----------|-----------|
## Blockers
- [blocker] → [who/what can unblock it]
Dashboard Updates
Update projects/DASHBOARD.md whenever:
- A project status changes
- A milestone is completed
- A new project is added
- During weekly reviews
Stalled Project Detection
A project is stalled if:
- No progress log entry in 7+ days
- Status is 🟢 Active but no recent milestone movement
- Has unresolved blockers older than 3 days
Flag stalled projects in daily briefings or heartbeat checks:
⚠️ Stalled: [Project Name] — no updates in [N] days. Continue, pause, or kill?
Weekly Review Format
Generate every Sunday (or on request):
# Weekly Project Review — [date range]
## Summary
- **Active:** [N] projects
- **Completed this week:** [list]
- **Stalled:** [list]
- **New:** [list]
## Per-Project Status
### [Project Name]
- **Progress:** [what moved]
- **Blockers:** [any]
- **Next week:** [planned actions]
## Recommendations
- [Kill/pause/accelerate suggestions based on patterns]
Priority Scoring
When the user has too many active projects, help prioritize:
| Factor | Weight | Score (1-5) |
|---|---|---|
| Revenue potential | 30% | |
| Time to completion | 20% | |
| Strategic alignment | 25% | |
| Personal energy/interest | 15% | |
| Dependency (blocks other work) | 10% |
Weighted score = Σ(weight × score). Projects below 2.5 are candidates for pause/kill.
Integration
- With daily-briefing: Include project summary in morning briefings
- With solopreneur-assistant: Feed project data into business dashboard
- With memory system: Log project decisions in daily memory files
Customization
- Review cadence: Weekly (default), biweekly, or monthly
- Stale threshold: 7 days (default), adjust per project type
- Dashboard format: Table (default) or kanban-style list
- Priority weights: Adjust scoring factors to match user's values
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Fix |
|---|---|
| Dashboard out of sync | Re-scan projects/ directory, rebuild from individual files |
| Too many active projects | Run priority scoring, recommend pause/kill for bottom 30% |
| Stalled detection too aggressive | Increase stale threshold for long-cycle projects |
| Missing progress entries | Set up heartbeat reminder to log daily |
