02_Projects

Purpose

Active initiatives with specific goals and deadlines. Projects have a finish line.

What Belongs Here

  • Active products being built
  • Features in development
  • Time-bound initiatives
  • Anything with a clear “done” state

What Does NOT Belong Here

  • Ongoing responsibilities without end dates (use 03_Areas/)
  • Reference material (use 04_Knowledge/)
  • Completed projects (move to 05_Archive/)

Project Structure

Each project gets its own folder:

Project-Name/
├── Project-Name.md      # Hub file (required)
├── Ideas/               # Atomic idea notes
├── Meetings/            # Meeting notes and summaries
└── Docs/                # Technical documentation

Project Hub Template

Every project hub must contain:

  • North Star: The project’s ultimate goal
  • State of Play: Current status and what’s happening now
  • Key Decisions: “Why we did What” - decision log with reasoning
  • Log: Links to all meeting notes

State Management

Update ‘Key Decisions’ and ‘State of Play’ whenever a project is mentioned in meetings or discussions.

For AI Agents

Before updating any project:

  1. Read the project hub first
  2. Check recent meeting notes for context
  3. Update State of Play if status changed
  4. Add new decisions to Key Decisions
  5. Link any new ideas to the hub
