# Project Snapshot Skill
## Purpose
Generate quick status overview of all active engineering projects, showing progress, blockers, and immediate priorities.
## Usage
- `/project-snapshot` - All active projects
- `/project-snapshot all` - All projects including paused/completed
- `/project-snapshot [project-name]` - Detailed snapshot for specific project
## Instructions
When this skill is invoked:
1. **Find all project files** using Glob:
```
Project*.md
```
2. **Read each project file** to extract:
- Project title and status
- Related ADRs
- Related tasks (completed and pending)
- Recent meetings
- Key stakeholders
- Current blockers/risks
- DPIA status (if applicable)
- Last modified date
3. **Filter by status** (unless 'all' specified):
- Active projects (status: active, in progress, or null)
- Exclude paused and completed unless 'all' flag used
4. **For each project, assess:**
- Health status: 🟢 On track, 🟡 At risk, 🔴 Blocked
- Recent activity (meetings/tasks in last 7 days)
- Pending actions and priorities
- Compliance status (DPIA, Cyber, etc.)
5. **Generate formatted snapshot:**
