Pm onboard

PM Onboard / Update Skill

Wire up or update the current project in the studio PM system. First audit existing config, then fill gaps and align to current standards.

---

Step 1 — Audit current state

Read CLAUDE.md if it exists. Also check for these files:

ls .claude/ 2>/dev/null
cat .claude/asana-ids.json 2>/dev/null
cat .claude/open-questions.md 2>/dev/null
ls .claude/adr/ 2>/dev/null

Determine what's already present:

Item	Present?
ASANA_PROJECT_GID in CLAUDE.md	yes / no
ASANA_TASK_PREFIX in CLAUDE.md	yes / no
ASANA_PROJECT_NAME in CLAUDE.md	yes / no
## Studio PM section in CLAUDE.md	yes / no
.claude/asana-ids.json exists	yes / no
.claude/open-questions.md exists	yes / no
.claude/adr/ directory exists	yes / no

Set MODE:

• If ASANA_PROJECT_GID is already present → update mode (fill gaps, align to current setup)
• If ASANA_PROJECT_GID is missing → onboard mode (full setup from scratch)

Tell the user which mode you're in and summarise what's missing before continuing.

---

Step 2 — Confirm Asana use (onboard mode only)

If in onboard mode, ask: "Does this project use Asana for task tracking?" If no, skip Steps 3–6 and go to Step 4b. If yes, continue with Step 3.

---

Step 3 — Elicit required fields

Ask for any fields that are missing. Show your suggested value and let the user confirm or override. Ask one prompt at a time — do not batch all at once.

Required Asana fields (skip if already present):

1. Asana Project GID — ASANA_PROJECT_GID

   • Say: "Paste the Asana project GID. Find it in the project URL: app.asana.com/0/[GID]/list"
   • No default — must be provided.

2. Task prefix — ASANA_TASK_PREFIX

   • Suggest: uppercase initials of the project name, 2–4 chars (e.g. acme-corp → ACM)
   • Check ~/.claude/studio/projects.md if it exists to avoid collisions.

3. Project name — ASANA_PROJECT_NAME

   • Suggest: a clean version of the directory name (e.g. acme_corp → Acme Corp)

Optional Studio PM fields:

4. Session name — CLAUDE_SESSION_NAME → .claude/settings.json
   • Shown in desktop notifications: [KF Web] Task complete
   • Suggest: short project label, 2–4 words (e.g. KF Web, Mhairi Site)
5. Client name — full name and role (e.g. "Jane Smith — e-commerce retailer, London") → CLAUDE.md
6. Client tone — one line (e.g. "Warm, professional, concise. No jargon.") → CLAUDE.md
7. PM / client contact — name and email → .claude/settings.local.json (gitignored)
8. Billing rate — e.g. £48/hr → .claude/settings.local.json (gitignored)

In update mode, only ask for fields that are genuinely missing. If all fields are present, skip this step entirely.

---

Step 4 — Write to CLAUDE.md

4a — Asana section:

If ASANA_PROJECT_GID / ASANA_TASK_PREFIX / ASANA_PROJECT_NAME are missing or need updating, write or update the ## Asana section:

## Asana

ASANA_PROJECT_GID: {gid}
ASANA_TASK_PREFIX: {prefix}
ASANA_PROJECT_NAME: {name}

4b — Studio PM section (CLAUDE.md):

If client name or tone were provided and are not already documented, append a ## Studio PM section to CLAUDE.md:

## Studio PM

- **Client:** {client name and role}
- **Tone:** {tone note}

Do not include contact details or billing rate here — those go in the local settings file (Step 4c). Do not duplicate information already present.

4c — Sensitive fields (.claude/settings.local.json):

If contact or billing rate were provided, write them to .claude/settings.local.json under an "env" key so they stay gitignored:

{
  "env": {
    "CLIENT_CONTACT": "{name} ({email})",
    "CLIENT_BILLING_RATE": "{rate}"
  }
}

Read the existing .claude/settings.local.json first and merge — do not overwrite other keys. Confirm .claude/settings.local.json is in .gitignore; add it if not.

---

Step 5 — Scaffold .claude/

Create any missing files:

asana-ids.json (if missing or empty):

python3 - <<'EOF'
import json
from pathlib import Path
ids_file = Path(".claude/asana-ids.json")
ids_file.parent.mkdir(exist_ok=True)
if not ids_file.exists():
    ids_file.write_text(json.dumps({
        "custom_field_gid": None,
        "last_synced_field_gid": None,
        "tasks": {},
        "next_seq": 1,
        "posted_progress": {}
    }, indent=2))
    print("asana-ids.json written")
else:
    print("asana-ids.json already exists — skipping")
EOF

open-questions.md (if missing):

# Open Questions

Questions awaiting client or stakeholder input.

<!-- Format: - [ ] Question — *asked YYYY-MM-DD* -->

adr/ directory (if missing):

mkdir -p .claude/adr

.claude/settings.json permissions (merge, do not overwrite):

Ensure the following entries are in the permissions.allow array. Read the file first, merge, and write back only if something is missing:

import json
from pathlib import Path

required = ["Bash(*)", "Read(*)", "Write(*)", "Edit(*)", "WebSearch(*)", "WebFetch(*)"]
f = Path(".claude/settings.json")
data = json.loads(f.read_text()) if f.exists() else {}
allow = data.setdefault("permissions", {}).setdefault("allow", [])
added = [p for p in required if p not in allow]
if added:
    allow.extend(added)
    f.write_text(json.dumps(data, indent=2) + "\n")
    print(f"Added to settings.json: {added}")
else:
    print("settings.json permissions already complete")

---

Step 6 — Set up Asana custom fields

Create and attach the "Local ID" and "Last Synced" custom fields for the project:

python3 ~/.claude/studio/sync.py --setup --project {PREFIX}

Replace {PREFIX} with the actual ASANA_TASK_PREFIX. This is safe to re-run — fields already configured are skipped.

---

Step 7 — Run sync

python3 ~/.claude/studio/sync.py --project {PREFIX}

Report: tasks found, whether the mirror was written, any errors.

---

Step 8 — Confirm

Tell the user:

• What changed (in update mode, distinguish "already present" from "added now")
• Where the mirror lives: .claude/asana-mirror.md
• That overnight sync runs at 2am, or they can run /sync any time
• If any gaps remain (e.g. optional fields they skipped), note them briefly
