Iterate one research project with evidence and keep its PROJECT_BOARD.html board in sync. Works standalone or inside a manage-research-portfolio workspace. Use when Codex needs to classify and place material into attempts, docs, data notes, literature, project-local skills, or _ai working memory; maintain 0-Project, 1-Docs, 2-Data, 3-Paper_Survey, 4-Skills, and _ai; route discussions to docs and concrete experiments to subprojects; write context handoffs; triage project challenges such as board drift, data-provenance gaps, local-rule drift, and messy worktrees; track evidence, status, blockers, next actions, and the Markdown-first Sync Scale.
Manage a multi-project research portfolio and keep its dashboard board in sync. Use when Codex needs to create, review, update, synchronize, or QA a portfolio workspace built from four slug-prefixed top-level areas (overview, project, data, ai); a project registry with owner/priority/status/next-action/evidence; challenge triage for sync drift, stale public copies, dirty worktrees, data-provenance gaps, local-rule drift, or orphaned handoffs; a copyable project template; shared data-governance notes; cross-project AI handoffs; a PROJECT_DASHBOARD.html board whose persistent overview and Project/Data/Usage views map one-to-one to the top-level folders; and a public-safe published copy of that dashboard. Keeps a lightweight Markdown-first workflow and private-data safety boundaries.
