MOKAI Daily Operations

Manages MOKAI daily workflow: diary scanning, task tracking, dashboard updates, and strategic prioritization.

When This Runs

Auto-triggers when user:

• Mentions MOKAI status/progress
• Asks what to work on for MOKAI
• Shares wins, blockers, or learnings
• Requests task priorities
• Says "update MOKAI"

Quick Workflow

1. Read tracker → Get processed files, current week/phase
2. Scan diary (via Serena) → Extract wins, blockers, learnings, context
3. Scan inbox tasks → Find MOKAI tasks with priority levels
4. Update checklist → Mark completed items, roll incomplete forward
5. Update dashboard → Deduplicate wins/blockers, add inbox tasks, set weekly focus
6. Update tracker → Mark old diary files as processed (NOT today's)
7. Report status → Strategic summary with prioritized recommendations

Key Files

• Tracker: /01-areas/business/mokai/.mokai-tracker.json
• Diary: /01-areas/business/mokai/diary/YYYY-MM-DD-mokai-daily.md
• Checklist: /01-areas/business/mokai/status/phase-1-foundation.md
• Dashboard: /01-areas/business/mokai/mokai-dashboard.md
• Inbox Tasks: /00-inbox/tasks/*.md (with relation: mokai)

Serena Integration

Use Serena MCP for efficient pattern matching:

• mcp__serena__list_dir - Find diary files
• mcp__serena__search_for_pattern - Extract sections
• mcp__serena__find_file - Locate inbox tasks

See TRACKER.md for tracker system details. See DIARY.md for diary format and patterns.

Critical Rules

• ✅ Always re-read today's diary (even if processed - allows same-day updates)
• ✅ Mark as processed ONLY previous days (today stays unprocessed)
• ✅ Deduplicate wins/blockers (fuzzy match 80%+)
• ✅ Prioritize urgent inbox tasks over routine Phase 1 tasks
• ✅ Roll incomplete tasks forward with "(rolled from [date])" note
• ✅ Be strategic - act like co-founder, not reporter
