Review Skill
Smart router that detects context and launches the appropriate review workflow.
Usage
/review # Auto-detect the right review based on time/context /review daily # Force daily review /review weekly # Force weekly review /review monthly # Force monthly review
Or simply: "Help me review" — and the right workflow starts.
Auto-Detection Logic
When invoked without arguments, detect context using these rules:
- Check the Time of Day
HOUR=$(date +%H)
-
Before noon (< 12): Morning routine — delegate to /daily morning workflow
-
After 5 PM (>= 17): Evening shutdown — delegate to /daily evening workflow
-
Midday (12-17): Midday check-in — delegate to /daily midday workflow
- Check the Day of Week
DAY_OF_WEEK=$(date +%u) # 1=Monday, 7=Sunday
-
Sunday (7) or Monday (1): Weekly review — delegate to /weekly
-
Override time-of-day detection
-
Ask: "Ready for your weekly review?" before proceeding
- Check the Day of Month
DAY_OF_MONTH=$(date +%d) DAYS_IN_MONTH=$(date -v+1m -v1d -v-1d +%d 2>/dev/null || date -d "$(date +%Y-%m-01) +1 month -1 day" +%d)
Last 3 days of month (DAY_OF_MONTH >= DAYS_IN_MONTH - 2): Monthly review — delegate to /monthly
-
Override both time-of-day and day-of-week detection
-
Ask: "End of month — ready for your monthly review?" before proceeding
First day of month (DAY_OF_MONTH == 1): Also suggest monthly review
- "It's the first of the month. Want to do your monthly review for last month?"
- Check Staleness
Before routing, check for overdue reviews:
Read weekly review file for last date
WEEKLY_REVIEW="Goals/3. Weekly Review.md"
If last weekly review > 7 days ago, suggest weekly regardless of day
-
Weekly review overdue (>7 days): Suggest weekly review
-
"Your last weekly review was N days ago. Want to catch up?"
-
If user says no, fall through to time-of-day detection
Routing Behavior
After detecting context:
-
Tell the user what was detected: "It's Sunday evening — launching your weekly review."
-
Delegate to the appropriate skill's workflow
-
The delegated skill handles everything from there
Delegation
This skill does NOT duplicate the logic of /daily , /weekly , or /monthly . It:
-
Detects context
-
Informs the user
-
Follows the instructions from the target skill's SKILL.md
Explicit Override
If the user specifies a type (/review weekly ), skip auto-detection entirely and go directly to that review type.
Output on Detection
Review Router
Time: 7:15 AM (Morning) Day: Sunday Month day: 15th
Detected: Weekly review (Sunday override) Last weekly review: 3 days ago (not overdue)
Launching weekly review...
Edge Cases
-
Multiple triggers (e.g., last Sunday of month): Monthly takes priority over weekly
-
No daily note exists: Create one first, then continue with review
-
User says "no" to suggestion: Fall through to next detection level
-
Explicit argument overrides everything: /review monthly runs monthly review even on a Tuesday morning
Integration
Works with:
-
/daily — Morning, midday, and evening routines
-
/weekly — Full weekly review process
-
/monthly — Monthly review and planning
-
Session init hook — Staleness data already calculated
