project-manager

Agent skill fromcoreyhaines31/makerskills

When you want to manage projects across your businesses using a kanban + Eisenhower methodology. One kanban per business (whatever portfolio of businesses, projects, or initiatives you run). Tool-agnostic — connects via API/MCP to whatever PM tool each business uses (Notion, GitHub Projects, Plane, Linear, Obsidian file-based, or manual mode). Async-first output. Six modes — setup (scaffold a new board for a business), triage (Eisenhower-sort the backlog), next (pick the next thing to work on, single board or across all), status (paste-ready async snapshot), unblock (diagnose Review/Blocked column), weekly (Friday pulse + week planning). Triggers on "/project-manager," "/pm," "/pm setup," "/pm triage," "/pm next," "/pm status," "/pm unblock," "/pm weekly," "project manager," "what should I work on next," "kanban status," "Eisenhower this," "triage my backlog," "what's blocked." Not for specing or launch-readiness checks on an app (see product-manager).

2
3Methodology-first project management. Kanban + Eisenhower + async. One board per business. Tool-agnostic via adapters.
4
5## Mental model
6
7Each business gets its own kanban with 5 columns:
8
9```
10Backlog → Ready → In Progress → Review/Blocked → Done/Archived
11```
12
13- **Backlog**: everything that *might* matter — not yet committed
14- **Ready**: triaged, well-defined, can be picked up
15- **In Progress**: actively being worked
16- **Review/Blocked**: waiting on someone else, review, or external dependency
17- **Done/Archived**: shipped or killed
18
19**Eisenhower** sits on top of the board — used to triage Backlog → Ready (which items make the cut) and to pick next from Ready (which Ready item to pull).
20
21```
22 Urgent Not Urgent
23Important Q1: Do Q2: Schedule ← Q2 is the high-leverage zone
24Not Important Q3: Delegate Q4: Delete
25```
26
27**Async-first**: every status snapshot should read like a Loom you didn't have to record. Make work visible without requiring a meeting.
28
29## Step 1 — Detect mode and target
30
31Parse the invocation:
32
33| Invocation | Mode | Target |
34|---|---|---|
35| `/project-manager setup [business]` | setup | the named business |
36| `/project-manager triage [business]` | triage | the named business (or ask) |
37| `/project-manager next [business]` | next | the named business |
38| `/project-manager next` | next | **across all boards** (cross-portfolio) |
