How does the skill calculate the overall project health score?

It uses a weighted calculation: Schedule (25%), Cost (20%), Quality (20%), Scope (15%), Risk (10%), and Stakeholder health (10%).

Does this skill provide recovery actions?

Yes, Gate 3 of the workflow specifically focuses on generating immediate, short-term, and long-term recommendations to address identified red flags.

What dimensions are evaluated in a Project Health Check?

The skill assesses six critical dimensions: Schedule Health, Cost Health, Scope Health, Quality Health, Risk Health, and Stakeholder Health.

When should I use this skill instead of portfolio planning?

Use Project Health Check for an intensive deep-dive into a single project. Use Portfolio Planning when you need a high-level view across multiple different projects.

What metrics are used to measure schedule and cost health?

The skill utilizes standard Earned Value Management (EVM) metrics including Schedule Performance Index (SPI) and Cost Performance Index (CPI).

Productivity & Workflow

Evaluates project status across six key dimensions to provide early warnings and actionable recovery recommendations for troubled initiatives.

About

The Project Health Check skill offers a rigorous, data-driven framework for assessing the viability and performance of individual software projects. By analyzing Schedule, Cost, Scope, Quality, Risk, and Stakeholder satisfaction, it moves beyond subjective status reporting to provide objective health scores based on industry-standard metrics like SPI and CPI. This skill is essential for project managers and AI agents who need to diagnose root causes of delays, manage stakeholder expectations, and implement structured recovery plans before milestones are missed.

Key Features

Multi-dimensional scoring across schedule, cost, scope, quality, risk, and stakeholders
Anti-rationalization patterns to prevent optimistic bias in project reporting
Three-gate assessment workflow: Data Collection, Health Assessment, and Recommendations
Quantitative metric calculation including SPI, CPI, and Milestone Status percentages
17 GitHub stars
Automated generation of detailed health reports with prioritized action items

Use Cases

Generating recovery plans for projects that have received stakeholder escalations
Conducting objective milestone reviews to identify hidden project risks
Standardizing status assessments across a PMO to ensure data-driven decision making
