What is Project Tracker?
The Project Tracker skill for Openclaw Skills is designed to manage the full lifecycle of software development projects based on specific requirements or versions. It enforces a standardized directory structure to ensure that all project-related data—including PRDs, technical designs, work logs, and issue tracking—is consistently organized and accessible by AI agents. This skill enables seamless transition from project initiation to final archiving, providing a unified source of truth for developer workflows.
By integrating Project Tracker into your Openclaw Skills environment, you bridge the gap between technical execution and project documentation. The skill ensures that critical decisions are not lost in logs but are instead distilled and synchronized into long-term memory, allowing for highly contextualized development support.
Project Tracker Use Cases
- Initializing standardized directory structures for new feature requirements or software versions.
- Keeping daily work logs updated in reverse chronological order while syncing decisions to agent memory.
- Tracking bugs, blockers, and task assignments directly within the project repository.
- Managing the distillation of project documents and final archiving once a requirement goes live.
How Project Tracker Works
- The user provides a command such as create new requirement or record project progress to trigger the Openclaw Skills agent.
- The skill reads template files from a central reference directory to generate the necessary file structure.
- It populates initial project metadata including ownership, status, and estimated launch dates in a README file.
- Throughout the development phase, the agent updates specific Markdown files like WORK_LOG.md and ISSUES.md based on developer input.
- Upon reaching project milestones or launch dates, the skill transitions the project through states like Distillation and Archive, summarizing long logs into concise historical records.
Project Tracker Setup
To get started with Project Tracker in your Openclaw Skills setup, ensure your project templates are defined in the references folder.
# Standard structure is automatically created under:
# projects/<project-name>/<requirement-name>/
# To trigger the skill via CLI or chat interface:
"Create a new requirement directory for my-app called authentication-module"
Project Tracker Data Schema & Taxonomy
Project Tracker organizes data within a dedicated hierarchy to ensure Openclaw Skills can parse project states efficiently:
| File/Folder | Function | Key Metadata |
|---|---|---|
README.md |
Project Overview | Status, Owner, Go-live Date |
WORK_LOG.md |
Daily Progress | Date-wise activities (reverse-chrono) |
DIVISION.md |
Task Allocation | Roles and Responsibilities |
ISSUES.md |
Problem Tracking | Status (Pending/Processing/Resolved) |
CHANGES.md |
Change Management | Impact, Reason, and Approval |
tech/ |
Technical Design | Architecture and API specs |
docs/ |
Requirements | PRD links and functional specs |
Project Tracker Advanced Features
- Multi-state lifecycle management: transitions projects from Active to Distilled and finally to Archived based on time-since-launch.
- Intelligent memory synchronization: automatically writes key decisions into the memory_store for long-term project context.
- Automated dashboard generation: scans all active requirement directories to produce a high-level project status summary.
- Built-in data distillation: compresses long-form work logs and issue tables into manageable summaries during the archive phase.
