What it does

Project Status Report is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Write a structured project status report for any project. Use when asked to write a project update, status report, RAG report, project dashboard narrative, or weekly project communication. Produces a clear status report with RAG ratings, milestone progress, risks, and decisions needed.

Its SKILL.md is about 950 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Project management, Internal communications and Retrieval-augmented generation. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to write a project update
  • Project dashboard narrative
  • Weekly project communication

Example prompts

  • “/project-status-report”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. 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

Project Status Report loads about 954 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 77 tokens; SKILL.md has 425 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~77
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~954

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.

Project Status Report Skill

Produces a clear, structured project status report — the weekly communication that keeps stakeholders informed without requiring a meeting.

Required Inputs

  • Project name
  • Reporting period
  • Current RAG status (Red / Amber / Green)
  • Key milestones (due, delivered, coming)
  • Issues or blockers
  • Decisions needed from stakeholders
  • Budget status (if tracked)
  • Audience (steering committee / sponsor / PMO / full team)

Output Structure


Project Status Report: [Project Name]

Period: [Date range] | Author: [PM] | Next report: [Date]

Risks

RAG definitions:

  • Green: On track. No significant issues.
  • Amber: At risk. Issues identified but mitigations in place.
  • Red: Off track. Escalation or decisions required to recover.

Executive Summary

[3-5 sentences. Headline story. If it is Red, say so immediately and why. Never bury bad news after good news.]

Writing Rules

  • Never soften a Red status
  • Milestones are binary: complete or not complete
  • Decisions must be genuinely actionable
  • Keep to one page where possible

Quality Checks

  • Red status is stated immediately (not buried after positives)
  • Every issue has a named owner and a resolution date
  • Decisions required are genuinely actionable by the audience
  • Milestones are binary (complete or not complete — no "85% done")
  • Executive summary can stand alone for a stakeholder who reads nothing else

Anti-Patterns

  • Do not rate project health as Green while listing unresolved critical blockers
  • Do not report milestone progress as a percentage — milestones are binary: complete or not complete
  • Do not bury risks at the bottom — if something is high risk, it belongs in the executive summary
  • Do not leave decisions required without specifying who must decide and by when
  • Do not write an executive summary that requires reading the full report to understand — it must stand alone

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Write a project status report for [project]"
  • "Generate a RAG status update for [project]"
  • "Write the steering committee report for [project]"
