What Am I Missing
Surface risks, blind spots, overlooked items, and accountability across all areas.
What to Check
1. Commitment Risks
From context/commitments.md:
- Overdue items
- Items at risk (due soon, no progress)
- Patterns of slippage
- Cascading delays
2. Relationship Risks
From people/ files:
- Cooling relationships (60+ days)
- Unfulfilled promises to key people
- Sentiment shifts detected
- Key relationships not nurtured
3. Waiting Risks
From context/waiting.md:
- Overdue items from others
- Critical dependencies at risk
- Patterns (chronic late deliverers)
4. Pattern Risks
From context/patterns.md:
- Recurring issues not addressed
- Blind spots observed
- Capacity concerns
- Self-limiting patterns
5. Strategic Risks
Looking at the bigger picture:
- Important-but-not-urgent items being neglected
- Opportunities cooling
- Decisions being avoided
6. Data Consistency Check
Cross-reference memory DB against file state to catch divergence:
- Run
claudia memory recall "project status commitments" --project-dir "$PWD" --limit 10
- Compare recalled statuses (interview completion, deliverable state) against file-based trackers
- For any active project with a dashboard/README tracker, grep actual file statuses and compare to stated counts
- Flag contradictions: "Memory says X is completed, but tracker shows it outstanding" (or vice versa)
- Recommend correction path: update the stale source to match the authoritative one
This step catches the scenario where an interview/task was processed but only some status sources were updated.
Output Format
## What You Might Be Missing - [Date]
### Commitment Risks
**Overdue:**

**Cooling:**
- [Person] - last contact [X] days ago
-> Was: [relationship context]
-> Risk: [what could happen]
**Open Loops:**
- Promised [thing] to [person] - [status]
### Waiting Risks
**Overdue from Others:**
- [Item] from [person] - expected [date]
-> Impact: [why this matters]
-> Suggested action: [what to do]
### Pattern Risks
- [Pattern] - seen [X] times recently
