Does this skill create Jira or GitHub tickets?

No, the Initiative skill is designed for high-level strategic planning and reporting. It intentionally excludes developer-level task breakdowns and ticket creation.

What happens if a data source for a KPI is missing?

The skill follows a strict constraint to never fabricate data. If an MCP query fails or a connector is not configured, it will report the gap rather than guessing.

Can I use this for technical sprint planning?

This skill focuses on product management and executive-level milestones. It does not provide hour estimates, complexity points, or developer task management.

How does the skill calculate performance trends?

It compares current period metrics against the previous period. A change of more than 10% is categorized as 'Improving' or 'Declining,' while smaller changes are marked as 'Stable.'

Where is the initiative data stored?

Initiative plans and reports are stored within your local project structure in the 'memory/initiatives/' and 'journal/' directories for persistent context.
