## What it does

This skill turns the agent into a project manager with persistent memory. It creates and maintains files under `/mnt/user-data/outputs/projects/`, tracking the project name, start date, conversations involved, tasks split into completed, in-progress and pending, decisions made, blockers, resources, links to related conversations and a last-updated timestamp.

Updates fire on their own when you mention the project name in a conversation. From there the skill builds a status report covering work from several chats and reminds you about commitments and follow-ups. State survives weeks and months, so a project does not reset every session.

Check the `/mnt/user-data/outputs/projects/` path before installing. If that directory is not reachable in your setup, there is nowhere to write project files, and that is the first thing to fix.
