Daily OKR

<skill_contract>

<input>Date, one priority objective, available time, active project, current inputs, and prior-day evidence.</input>

<output>A seven-KR daily cycle linking input, cognition, wiki, behavior, creativity, output, and feedback.</output>

<done>Each claimed KR has a durable receipt, and today's feedback changes one explicit next-day action or knowledge state.</done>

<non_goals>Seven unrelated priorities, invented completion, activity counting without evidence, or treating scheduled notes as execution.</non_goals>

Run one daily objective through seven linked Key Results. The cycle compounds only when evidence from today changes tomorrow's behavior or knowledge state.

Usage Template

Provide: date, one objective, available time, active project, knowledge inputs, and yesterday's evidence. Optional: a scheduled knowledge-loop note; treat it as input, not proof of execution.

Workflow

<intake>

• Load the current daily state and any scheduled-loop proposal.
• Choose one objective tied to an active project or explicit learning goal.
• Set a total time budget and a minimum viable day.
• Carry forward only unresolved items with an owner or decision value.

</intake>

<unknowns_gate>

If priority, available time, or completion evidence is missing, return NEEDS_INPUT with one narrow probe. If the day is constrained, select the minimum cycle rather than fabricating seven completed results.

</unknowns_gate>

<execute>

Create seven causally linked KRs:

• Input: capture one high-value source or observation.
• Cognition: extract one mechanism, contradiction, or decision implication.
• Wiki: write or improve one durable note with provenance.
• Behavior: execute one minimum behavior linked to the objective.
• Creativity: produce one alternative or falsifiable experiment.
• Output: ship one reviewable artifact or project increment.
• Feedback: record evidence, error, and tomorrow's adjustment.

Each KR needs an artifact or receipt. Keep unfinished work visible; do not convert a scheduled trigger into a success claim.

</execute>

<evaluate>

At close, mark each KR done, partial, blocked, or skipped from evidence. Check that at least one input became a durable wiki change and one observation changed a future action. Remove vanity metrics and report the bottleneck.

</evaluate>

<state_contract>

Persist {run_id, status, attempt, budget, evidence, unknowns, last_error, next_action} plus date, objective, seven KR statuses, artifact links, bottleneck, and tomorrow adjustment. Append receipts; never rewrite historical completion evidence.

</state_contract>

Failure Protocol

• NEEDS_INPUT: no daily objective or time budget can be inferred safely.
• BLOCKED_DEPENDENCY: a required source, project, or tool is unavailable; complete independent KRs and record the blocker.
• VERIFY_FAILED: a KR has no artifact or receipt; mark it partial or skipped.
• BUDGET_STOP: time is exhausted; close the state and select one next action.

Output Contract

Return status, result (objective plus seven KR states), evidence (artifact links or receipts), unknowns, and next_action for the next cycle.

Edge Cases

• Only 15 minutes remain: perform Input -> Cognition -> Wiki as one atomic note, then record feedback; mark other KRs skipped.
• A scheduled loop note exists but no command ran: record the trigger as proposed work, not execution evidence.

Success Metrics

• One objective governs all seven KRs.
• At least one source becomes a verified durable note.
• The closing feedback changes a named next action.

Quality Gates

• [ ] Every completed KR has evidence.
• [ ] Scheduled and executed states are distinct.
• [ ] Carry-forward work has decision value and an owner.
• [ ] The minimum day respects the declared budget.
