/sitrep — state of the union re-orientation

Optional integrations (each missing one degrades to a noted DATA GAP, never a failure): a curator verification subagent (see agents/curator.md in this collection) for escalated claims; a session-history MCP and a memory MCP for the historical lane; a docs/roadmap/MILESTONES.md for milestone anchoring; sibling skills /pm and /focus.

Occasional deep sweep. Three jobs: verify shipped-vs-claimed, surface loose ends / loss-risk (unpushed commits, stale worktrees, unchecked plans, unclosed handoffs), and reset what's next. Read-only except for the report file it writes; the MILESTONES.md change is PROPOSED, never applied.

/pm-style live boards are the daily at-a-glance; /sitrep is periodic truth-reconciliation, and its loose-ends/at-risk section is loss-risk & staleness reconciliation, not a live board.

Step 1 — Args + window

/sitrep takes no required args. Determine the git/since window: read the newest prior docs/digests/*-sitrep.md; if found, window = its date → today; else default 14 days. Pass the window string (e.g. 14 days ago or 2026-05-14) to the backbone lane.

Step 2 — Dispatch both lanes IN PARALLEL

In a single message, dispatch two general-purpose subagents (Agent tool, no subagent_type):

BACKBONE: "Read ~/.claude/skills/sitrep/references/gatherer-protocol.md. Act as the BACKBONE lane, window=. Return only the claim list."
HISTORICAL: "Read ~/.claude/skills/sitrep/references/gatherer-protocol.md. Act as the HISTORICAL lane. Return only the claim list with the CONTINUITY LAG note at top."

Step 3 — Validate digests

Read ~/.claude/skills/sitrep/references/synthesis-rules.md §1. For each lane: confirm schema completeness; mark missing/errored sources as DATA GAPs.
