description: Scan active projects for status, blockers, and next steps
---
Quick scan of all active projects to see what's stalled, blocked, or needs attention.
## What This Does
Checks each project in `04-Projects/` for:
1. Activity levels (when was project last touched?)
2. Week Priorities presence (does project have active tasks?)
3. Blockers (anything blocking progress?)
4. Next steps clarity (is the next action clear?)
## Process
### Step 1: Scan Projects
List all projects in `04-Projects/`:
```bash
ls -la 04-Projects/
```
### Step 2: Check Each Project
For each project folder or file:
**Activity Check:**
- Get last modification time
- >7 days without activity = yellow
- >14 days without activity = red
**Week Priorities Presence:**
- Scan `00-Inbox/Weekly_Plans.md` for project mentions
- No tasks for 2+ weeks = yellow
**Blocker Check:**
- Look for "blocked", "waiting on", "stuck" in project notes
- Any logged blocker = red
**Next Step Clarity:**
- Check if there's a clear next action
- No next step = yellow
### Step 3: Output Dashboard
```markdown
### Project Health Dashboard
| Project | Status | Issue | Days Since Activity |
|---------|--------|-------|---------------------|
| [Project A] | 🟢 | On track | 2 |
| [Project B] | 🟡 | No active tasks | 8 |
| [Project C] | 🔴 | Blocked - waiting on [X] | 15 |
**Summary:** [N] projects ([X] 🟢 / [Y] 🟡 / [Z] 🔴)
```
## Status Meanings
- 🟢 **Green**: Active, clear next steps, no blockers
- 🟡 **Yellow**: Stale 7-14 days, OR no active tasks, OR unclear next step
- 🔴 **Red**: Blocked, OR stale 14+ days
## When to Use
- Weekly planning to check project health
- When feeling disconnected from the big picture
- Before 1:1s to surface blocked projects
- When deciding what to work on next
## Follow-up Actions
For yellow projects:
- Add a task to Week Priorities
- Clarify next step in project notes
For red projects:
- Identify what's blocking progress
- Escalate if needed
- Or decide to pause/archive the project
