What it does

This skill teaches an agent to keep a project-tracking status page up to date for a 'Product' inside the Agno company framework. The agent calls a refresh tool, reads the Product's remaining Projects, Tasks and configured source documents, and records observed progress and failures in a status file. It is designed to propose rather than decide: it suggests Project completions and Task changes that a human must accept through a separate API, and it removes references to archived work so old items stop appearing in future agent context.

Great for

  • Teams using the Agno company/Product framework who want status pages refreshed automatically
  • Developers building scheduled maintenance routines for wiki-style project tracking
  • Project managers who want evidence-based status summaries they review before accepting

Skip it if

  • Anyone outside the Agno framework: the skill depends on its specific tools (refresh_company_product, read_product_source, intake_product_source) and will not work on its own.
  • Fully autonomous project management: the skill is written so that completions and Task state changes need human approval, and relying on it to close work without review would be a misuse.
  • Situations needing read access to sensitive source material without controls: the agent reads configured sources and writes them into status pages, which could expose content if sources are not appropriately restricted.

Try asking

  • “Refresh the status of the Marketing Product using its current tasks and sources”
  • “Check which Projects in the Platform Product look complete and propose them for review”
  • “Update the status page for the Website Product with today's progress and any source failures”
  • “Remove archived work from the Sales Product's status so it no longer influences agent context”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Review every proposal the skill produces before using the Project transition API; the skill is designed to never complete work on its own.
  • Configure archive_window_days deliberately, since its default of 14 days determines which generated pages are deleted during maintenance.
  • Make sure configured Sources are ones you want the agent to read, because it pulls document content into status updates.
