Weekly Review — GTD Loop → Trusted System

This skill runs a full GTD weekly review through David Allen's three-phase loop — GET CLEAR, GET CURRENT, GET CREATIVE — using deterministic scripts to inventory open loops, gate the checklist, and audit commitment health. It produces a verdict (COMPLETE/INCOMPLETE) and a health score, ensuring your personal system stays trusted.

✨ What it does

  • Scans a directory for open loops (unchecked checkboxes, TODO/FIXME markers, stale files).
  • Walks the ten-step three-phase checklist with a gate that computes completion and names missing steps.
  • Audits commitments, flagging stalled or actionless items and scoring health 0-100.
  • Enforces all five GET CURRENT steps as mandatory; skips require a stated reason.
  • Provides references and assets for GTD principles and a fillable checklist.
  • Timeboxes the review to 60-90 minutes and handles lapsed habits with a shorter pass.

🎯 When to use it

  • When you want to run a weekly review to close open loops and get your system back to trusted.
  • When you need to audit stalled projects or commitments and identify next actions.
  • When you've lapsed your review habit and want to restart with a structured, guilt-free process.
  • When you say '/cs:weekly-review' to trigger the skill.

🚀 How to use

Trigger with '/cs:weekly-review' or a request like 'Run my weekly review'. Optionally provide a directory or notes to review. The skill runs three scripts: open_loop_scanner.py, weekly_review_gate.py, and commitment_auditor.py. Example prompts:

/cs:weekly-review
Run a weekly review on ~/notes and audit my commitments.

📄 Output: A review verdict (COMPLETE/INCOMPLETE) with completion percentage, a commitment health score (HEALTHY/DRIFTING/OVERCOMMITTED), and a named next action.

⚠️ Good to know

Requires Python and a directory to scan; the skill relies on the user to provide honest input for the gate and auditor.

❓ FAQ

What happens if I skip a GET CURRENT step?

You can skip with a stated reason, but the gate will still name it and force an INCOMPLETE verdict if it's a mandatory step.

How long should a weekly review take?

Timebox it to 60-90 minutes; if it goes past two hours, gate what's done honestly and schedule the remainder.

Can I use this after a long break from reviews?

Yes, a lapsed habit restarts with a shorter pass and zero guilt — a review is maintenance, not judgment.
