What it does

Weekly Review is an agent skill from andreaskelm/pm-brain. Plan or close the week using PM cadence rituals, draft the weekly note (YYYY-Www.md), resolve due decisions, and run the Friday drift sweep across decisions, live assumptions, initiatives, and context. Use when the user says "weekly review", "plan my week", "Friday wrap", "drift sweep", or invokes week planning.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/drift-sweep.md`).

It sits in Knowledge Management, covering Journaling and reflection. The repository describes itself as: AI-powered product management thinking & operating system. Playbooks, guides, templates, and frameworks that bridge PM theory to daily execution.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says weekly review
  • Invokes week planning

Example prompts

  • “weekly review”
  • “plan my week”
  • “Friday wrap”
  • “/weekly-review”

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Which moment is this?
  2. Load context
  3. Monday output (when planning)
  4. Wednesday output (when mid-week)
  5. Friday retrospective (before drift)
  6. Friday drift sweep (~10 min)
  7. Draft YYYY-Www.md
  8. decisions.md hygiene

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 38696ac. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Weekly Review loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 677 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~82
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 677 words (~1,414 tokens).

“Week-over-week execution only compounds if someone closes the loop: what shipped, what you believed, what drifted. The agent drafts; the user owns honesty — especially "what am I avoiding?" Never fill that in for them.”
