Weekly Review Ritual

Q: How do I know the Weekly Review Ritual output is good?

The skill verifies itself against its own quality checks: The slot is real, recurring, and defended on the calendar; The sweep list names every actual capture point including the head; The big three are outcomes, checked against real open hours, and blocked; Both questions get written answers.

Install the weekly review that keeps work from managing you — the 30-minute Friday ritual: close the week's loops, sweep the capture points, choose next week's big three before the calendar chooses for you, and the two questions that compound. Use when asked set up a weekly review, my weeks just happen to me, GTD-style review but lighter, or I keep dropping threads between weeks. Produces the ritual's fixed agenda, the sweep checklist, the big-three selection, and the survival rules for busy weeks.

What to give it

▸The existing systems — task list, calendar, notes; the review orchestrates what exists ([email-triage-system](../email-triage-system/SKILL.md), [task-triage-matrix](../task-triage-matrix/SKILL.md) are its natural companions) — a review without a task system to sweep *into* needs that installed first

▸The capture points, honestly — everywhere commitments accumulate: inboxes, chat mentions, meeting notes, the head (the head is always on the list)

▸The week's shape — when the review can actually happen (Friday 3pm default; the slot must be real, recurring, and defended)

▸The dropped-thread history — what tends to fall between weeks; the sweep checklist gets built around the actual leaks

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

✓The slot is real, recurring, and defended on the calendar

✓The sweep list names every actual capture point including the head

✓The big three are outcomes, checked against real open hours, and blocked

✓Both questions get written answers

✓The crisis version and never-skip-twice rule are explicit

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not review without sweeping — a review that skips the capture points is a diary entry

Do not choose five big things — three, calendar-checked; ambition unchecked by hours is next Friday's guilt

Do not let drops happen silently — dropped-on-purpose is healthy; dropped-by-leak is the thing this ritual exists to end

Do not skip twice — the second skip is the system's funeral, quietly

Do not expand the ritual — 30 minutes is the ceiling; a 90-minute review gets skipped by week three
