Marker client report

marker-client-report

Produce a polished, client-facing recap of what an agency completed on a website over a week or month, straight from Marker.io — grouped by page, written in plain language, ready to paste into an email or send as-is. Read-only.

When to use

"Write the weekly report for <client>", "what did we ship for <project> this month", "monthly recap for the <site> work", "client status update from Marker". For analyzing recurring patterns rather than reporting a period's work, use marker-insights; for triaging the open backlog, use marker-triage.

Inputs to confirm

• Which project (one client / site is usually one project; resolve per the operating rules).
• The window: default the last 7 days, or "last month" / last 30 days / an explicit date range.
• Whether to include sections beyond completed work: in-progress now, and newly reported this period. Default: completed only.

Steps

1. Resolve the project and read project_get for its name and websiteUrls (the report header and the page mapping).
2. Decide which statuses count as completed — Resolved and Closed by default. Statuses are project-specific and can be renamed, so don't assume a customized board uses the English defaults: confirm which are in use by probing issues_list with each status value, and if it is unclear which statuses mean "done", show the candidates and ask.
3. Pull issues with issues_list, paginating limit/offset fully. Keep fields lean: markerId, title, status, url, createdAt, updatedAt. The MCP has no date filter, so window client-side: an item counts as completed this period when its status is one of the completed states and its updatedAt falls in the window.
4. Classify each completed item as a content update (typo, copy, wrong number or fact, image, link, layout) or a fix (functional bug). Marker does not expose an issue's type to read, so infer it from the title and page URL; open issue_get / issue_get_screenshot only when the title is too thin to describe in client terms.
5. Group by page (from the URL relative to websiteUrls), and within a page by content vs fix.
6. Write the report (see Output). Translate internal titles into client language: "Fix typo in intro paragraph" becomes "Corrected a typo in the Solutions page intro". Drop Marker jargon, statuses, and IDs from the client-facing copy.

Output

A markdown report client-report-<project>-<date>.md:

• A one-line headline: "This week we completed 12 updates across 4 pages of <site>."
• What we updated, grouped by page, each item a plain-language sentence. Separate content updates from fixes when both are present.
• Optional In progress and New this period sections when requested.
• A short closing line inviting feedback.

Keep a separate internal copy (or a footnote) with the Marker links and issue codes for the agency's own reference; keep the client-facing version clean.

Honesty about the data

Completion is dated by updatedAt because the Marker.io MCP exposes no resolved-at timestamp and no date filter. An older issue that was re-touched (a late comment, a status change) in the window can therefore appear; skim the list before sending and drop anything that was not really completed this period.

This skill is read-only. It does not change any issue.

Operating rules

This skill drives the Marker.io MCP. Read tools: projects_list, project_get, project_list_users, list_issue_types, issues_list, issue_get, issue_get_context, issue_get_screenshot, issue_get_attachments, issue_get_console_log, issue_get_network_request. Write tools: issue_update_status, issue_update_assignee, issue_update_priority, issue_update_type, comment_create.

1. Resolve the project first. Call projects_list (filter with searchText). If more than one could match, show the candidates and ask which one. Never guess a projectId.
2. Discover before you write. Status and issue-type strings are project-specific. Call list_issue_types and project_get for valid values before any issue_update_*. Get user IDs from project_list_users before assigning or @mentioning.
3. Read cheap, drill deep only when it matters. Start from issue_get_context summaries; fetch a specific issue_get_console_log(logIndex) / issue_get_network_request(requestIndex) or issue_get_screenshot only when it changes a decision.
4. Propose, then apply. Before any write, print a table of the planned changes (issue, field, old to new). Apply via the *_update_* / comment_create tools only after the user confirms. Default comment visibility to Member-only unless the reporter should see it.
5. Respect the limits. issues_list does not return assignee (fetch per-issue via issue_get). The MCP cannot create Marker.io issues. Never embed tokens; rely on the configured MCP auth.
