Project Manager

What This Skill Does

The Project Manager skill is a sophisticated task-tracking engine designed for the Vivi OS environment. It acts as a central nervous system for your professional and personal workflows by maintaining a structured JSON database located at /Users/fz1/clawd/data/pm/projects.json. Unlike simple to-do lists, this skill implements a Kanban-style architecture that allows you to transition tasks through various lifecycle stages: todo, in_progress, review, done, and blocked. One of its most powerful features is the native integration with Apple Reminders; when a task is flagged with the 'sync: true' attribute, the skill automatically mirrors the item into your Apple ecosystem, ensuring you never miss a deadline regardless of whether you are in OpenClaw or checking your mobile devices. Furthermore, the skill enforces specific business logic, such as a work-in-progress limit of three tasks, which helps prevent cognitive overload and fosters a more focused working environment.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw agent, execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/fr0ziii/project-manager

Ensure that you have read and write permissions for the directory /Users/fz1/clawd/data/pm/ before installation, as the agent requires these to persist your project data effectively.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for developers, project managers, or power users who live within a terminal-based workflow but need to maintain compatibility with standard productivity tools like Apple Reminders. Use it to keep your project status updated during daily standups, manage your feature backlog, or track long-term goals. The 'blocked' status is particularly useful for highlighting dependencies, while the 'review' status ensures that you follow strict approval workflows when working with stakeholders like David.

Example Prompts

1. "What is currently in my pipeline, and which tasks are marked as blocked?"
2. "Add a new task: Develop API authentication, priority: high, sync: true, project: SaaS."
3. "Move the task regarding the frontend refactor to review and notify David that it is ready for inspection."

Tips & Limitations

• Focus Management: The system enforces a maximum of 3 tasks in 'in_progress'. If you attempt to add more, the agent will prompt you to complete or move existing tasks first.
• Synchronization: Changes to Apple Reminders are one-way flows initiated by the agent. If you manually change a reminder status in Apple's app, you should trigger the 'Sync' command in OpenClaw to ensure the local JSON database reflects these changes.
• Notifications: Always ensure you have your communication channels configured, as moving tasks to 'review' or 'blocked' triggers an automated notification to David.
