An invented week, scrollable. The names, clients and completions in it are written, not anybody’s real ones.

1.0What it does
  • WeekOne focus, and up to six priorities, each with a stated outcome rather than a title.
  • WorkProjects and key actions beneath the priorities, with the client, the minutes and the fee where they apply.
  • WaitingWho owes a reply, and for how many days. Sorted by how long it has been, not by when it was added.
  • ParkedIdeas expire after sixty days and ask for a decision: promote, rewrite or delete. There is no fourth option.
  • LogEvery completion, kept permanently, with the priority’s name and colour as they were at the moment it was ticked.
2.0Why it exists

Most planners are a list of what you have not done yet. The difficulty for anyone working alone is the opposite question, asked at the end of a term by a client, an accountant or yourself: what did I actually do, and did any of it move the thing I said mattered most?

So the log is permanent and the priorities are coloured regions whose size is honest about how much open work each one carries. A priority with nothing under it is a thin bar, and that is the most useful thing on the page.

3.0Who it is for

It was built for one person: José Picardo, an education consultant working alone. It is not for sale and there is no waiting list. It is also a worked example — one person, one database, built with Claude Code — used in talks and training days about what is now possible to build yourself.

4.0The weekly review

Once a week attick reads your own record back to you and talks it through: what moved, what did not, and what has quietly survived five Mondays in a row without being done. It remembers the previous conversation, so it can tell you when you are promising the same thing again.

Nothing is written or completed on your behalf without you agreeing to it first. To produce the review, your week and your log are sent to Anthropic’s API on your own account, and nowhere else.
