Daily Okr

Daily OKR

Date, one priority objective, available time, active project, current inputs, and prior-day evidence. A seven-KR daily cycle linking input, cognition, wiki, behavior, creativity, output, and feedback. Each claimed KR has a durable receipt, and today's feedback changes one explicit next-day action or knowledge state. Seven unrelated priorities, invented completion, activity counting without evidence, or treating scheduled notes as execution.

Run one daily objective through seven linked Key Results. The cycle compounds only when evidence from today changes tomorrow's behavior or knowledge state.

Usage Template

Provide: date, one objective, available time, active project, knowledge inputs, and yesterday's evidence. Optional: a scheduled knowledge-loop note; treat it as input, not proof of execution.

Workflow

1. Load the current daily state and any scheduled-loop proposal.
2. Choose one objective tied to an active project or explicit learning goal.
3. Set a total time budget and a minimum viable day.
4. Carry forward only unresolved items with an owner or decision value.

If priority, available time, or completion evidence is missing, return NEEDS_INPUT with one narrow probe. If the day is constrained, select the minimum cycle rather than fabricating seven completed results.

Create seven causally linked KRs:

1. Input: capture one high-value source or observation.
2. Cognition: extract one mechanism, contradiction, or decision implication.
3. Wiki: write or improve one durable note with provenance.
4. Behavior: execute one minimum behavior linked to the objective.
5. Creativity: produce one alternative or falsifiable experiment.
6. Output: ship one reviewable artifact or project increment.
7. Feedback: record evidence, error, and tomorrow's adjustment.

Each KR needs an artifact or receipt. Keep unfinished work visible; do not convert a scheduled trigger into a success claim.

At close, mark each KR done, partial, blocked, or skipped from evidence. Check that at least one input became a durable wiki change and one observation changed a future action. Remove vanity metrics and report the bottleneck.

Persist {run_id, status, attempt, budget, evidence, unknowns, last_error, next_action} plus date, objective, seven KR statuses, artifact links, bottleneck, and tomorrow adjustment. Append receipts; never rewrite historical completion evidence.

Failure Protocol

• NEEDS_INPUT: no daily objective or time budget can be inferred safely.
• BLOCKED_DEPENDENCY: a required source, project, or tool is unavailable; complete independent KRs and record the blocker.
• VERIFY_FAILED: a KR has no artifact or receipt; mark it partial or skipped.
• BUDGET_STOP: time is exhausted; close the state and select one next action.

Output Contract

Return status, result (objective plus seven KR states), evidence (artifact links or receipts), unknowns, and next_action for the next cycle.

Edge Cases

• Only 15 minutes remain: perform Input -> Cognition -> Wiki as one atomic note, then record feedback; mark other KRs skipped.
• A scheduled loop note exists but no command ran: record the trigger as proposed work, not execution evidence.

Success Metrics

• One objective governs all seven KRs.
• At least one source becomes a verified durable note.
• The closing feedback changes a named next action.

Quality Gates

• [ ] Every completed KR has evidence.
• [ ] Scheduled and executed states are distinct.
• [ ] Carry-forward work has decision value and an owner.
• [ ] The minimum day respects the declared budget.
