goal-tracking
Cascading goal tracking system connecting 3-year vision to daily tasks. Automates progress calculation, stalled goal detection, and project-to-goal alignment for Obsidian vaults.
Introduction
This skill acts as the engine for an AI-powered accountability system, bridging the gap between high-level long-term vision and granular daily execution. Designed for users of Obsidian and Claude Code, it monitors a hierarchical goal structure that begins with 3-year life area visions and cascades down through yearly objectives, projects, monthly focus areas, and weekly reviews, ultimately grounding them in specific daily tasks. By scanning your vault, the skill calculates completion percentages using checklist-based, metric-based, or time-based logic, ensuring that no initiative is forgotten. It serves as a rigorous personal assistant that identifies stalled goals—defined as those lacking progress for over 14 days—and highlights orphaned goals that are not supported by any active project.
-
Automatically parses progress from markdown files using checklist completion rates and quantitative metrics.
-
Implements an orphan goal detection mechanism to prompt the creation of new projects for neglected objectives.
-
Integrates with project-tracking logic to roll up project status into the overarching goal hierarchy.
-
Generates comprehensive progress reports, including goal status, project health, and recommended focus areas for the upcoming week.
-
Supports task-based tracking by linking specific daily actions to yearly and monthly goals via wiki-links and priority tags.
-
Facilitates session-scoped task management to ensure data gathering, analysis, and flagging operations are performed in a structured sequence.
-
Ensure goal files (3-year, yearly, monthly) are correctly placed in the designated Goals/ directory to allow the agent to parse the hierarchy.
-
Use the provided project integration by linking active projects in the Projects/*/CLAUDE.md files to specific goals.
-
The skill assumes a standard markdown format for checkboxes and value tracking; ensure consistency in your goal files to maintain accurate reporting.
-
Performance depends on the presence of recent daily notes to cross-reference task completion and goal contributions.
-
Ideal for users practicing GTD, PARA, or any cascading OKR-style methodology who require automated, context-aware reminders and accountability.
