Hivemind Goals

A unified goal and task tracker that stores everything as Markdown files in Deeplake's virtual filesystem. Instead of juggling separate systems for OKRs and todos, you write goals and KPIs as files at memory/goal/ and memory/kpi/, where the folder path encodes status (opened, in_progress, closed) and ownership. The real trick is the "capture" pattern: when you're deep in one problem and something else comes up, you can park it with full context (files, branch, next action) so you can resume cold in a future session without re-explaining. All file operations go through Bash because the VFS intercepts writes and versions them into a shared table. It replaced the old hivemind tasks CLI, so now "remind me to fix X" and "ship feature Y by Friday" land in the same system.

Files

Hivemind Goals

Track goals as Markdown files inside the Deeplake virtual filesystem. Each file is one row in a dedicated team-shared table — the path encodes the structural metadata, the file body holds the human-readable description.

When to use this skill

Activate when the user expresses any of:

"I want to track X / aim for X / track my progress on Y"
"add a goal", "what are my goals?"
"mark this as done", "close that goal"
"shipping X by Friday", "5 PRs this week", any measurable target
"create a task", "add a todo", "remind me to fix X", any work item (the goals system absorbs the old hivemind tasks CLI — there is no separate task store)

For "list my goals" → run ls ~/.deeplake/memory/goal/<userName>/opened/ and ls ~/.deeplake/memory/goal/<userName>/in_progress/. If empty, ask the user if they want to create one.

Path conventions (LEARN THESE)

~/.deeplake/memory/goal/<owner>/<status>/<goal_id>.md

<owner> — user identifier (use the userName from hivemind whoami or the credentials)
<status> — one of opened, in_progress, closed
<goal_id> — UUIDv4 you generate at create time
