description: "Scan active projects for status, blockers and next actions. Use when the user says 'how are my projects', 'what's stuck', 'project status'. Also use proactively when projects have gone quiet. Not for writing a spec for a new product idea; use `product-brief`."

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

## Track Usage (Silent)

Update `System/usage_log.md` to mark project health check as used.

**Analytics (Silent):**

Call `track_event` with event_name `project_health_checked` and properties:
- projects_reviewed
- blockers_found

This only fires if the user has opted into analytics. No action needed if it returns "analytics_disabled".
