project-workflow

name	project-workflow
description	Use when the user wants the full package on a repo, says run my project workflow, project check-in, or is overwhelmed opening an old or new folder. Runs the project onboarding checklist—explain-new-project, project-worth-my-time, and project-catch-up—in order or on demand.

Project Workflow

One sentence

One ask → the right steps in order → three files on disk + a short chat summary.

Pick a path first (routing)

User means…	Run
New folder / “what is this?” / guide only	Step 1 only → explain-new-project
“Worth my time?” / build vs buy	Step 2 → project-worth-my-time (read PROJECT_GUIDE.md first if it exists)
“I’m back after a while” / what’s new	Step 3 → project-catch-up
“Full workflow” / “check-in” / “do everything”	Steps 1 → 2 → 3 in order (unless skip rules below)
Unclear	Default: full (1 → 2 → 3)

Same audience as the other skills: self-taught, plain language, Learn: for jargon.

What each step saves

Step	Skill	File
1	explain-new-project	PROJECT_GUIDE.md
2	project-worth-my-time	PROJECT_VERDICT.md
3	project-catch-up	PROJECT_CATCH_UP.md

Before you start

1. Confirm project root (workspace folder or path user names).
2. Glance at which PROJECT_*.md files already exist—report in chat, then follow skip rules or user request.

Execute

For each step you run: read that skill’s SKILL.md and follow it completely (do not shorten sub-skills).

• Step 2 uses Pieces MCP (user-pieces: get_user_persona, ask_pieces_ltm) when available.
• Step 3 uses web search when available.

Do not ask permission to save files—sub-skills always save.

Skip rules

User says	Skip
guide only / step 1 only	2 and 3
no verdict / no worth	2
no catch-up	3
verdict only	1 if PROJECT_GUIDE.md exists and is usable; else run 1 first
catch-up only	1 if guide missing; else skip 1 and 2

File already exists	Default
All three fresh enough	Ask once: Re-run all three or only what’s missing? If user said full workflow, re-run all (overwrite).
User said full workflow	Overwrite all three

After you finish — chat reply (keep short)

Use this checklist in the reply:

Done:
- [ ] PROJECT_GUIDE.md — paste "In one minute" + "How you run it"
- [ ] PROJECT_VERDICT.md — paste Quick verdict + What I'd do (if ran step 2)
- [ ] PROJECT_CATCH_UP.md — paste Headline + Do these first (if ran step 3)

Files saved at: [project root path]

If a step was skipped, say which and why.

Prerequisites

Need	For
Write access to project root	All steps
PiecesOS + the pieces MCP server configured in your agent	Step 2 (ok to skip Pieces if down—say so)
Web search	Step 3

What not to do

• Do not inline the full text of the three skills—delegate to them.
• Do not run step 2 or 3 without project context (guide or quick explore per sub-skill).
• Do not add a fourth combined markdown file.

• The Pieces MCP server name can differ between agents (often pieces or user-pieces). Use whichever name your coding agent exposes; the flow is identical.
