What is being built, and what it has to prove
Every project here is at one of a few stages, and the stage decides what it owes. A bet owes a claim and a date. Something live owes objectives with numbers attached. The thresholds are set before the measurement, not after, which is the only thing that makes any of the numbers below worth reading.

Across 4 scorecards: 0 on track, 3 measuring, 2 needing action, 10 not yet readable.

Italian
When I have family in Italy and school-grade Italian that has gone quiet, I want to know which words I actually hold, so that practice aims at the gaps instead of the whole language.

Pet Med Reminder
When my pet is on a medication schedule I keep half-remembering, I want the dose either logged or clearly missed, so I stop reconstructing last week from memory.

Show Notes
When I have subscribed to more podcasts than I will ever listen to, I want the episodes I skipped to come back as something I can read in two minutes, so the backlog stops being a debt.

Everything else
Shipped, steady, or not yet committed toThese have no scorecard on purpose. Objectives on a tool that two people use, or on an idea nobody has committed to building, measure nothing except whether someone felt like writing objectives.
| Project | Stage | The question it is at |
|---|---|---|
| Work Context Protocol | Steady | Is it still up and still used? |
| Vine Trails | Building | Will it ship, and will anyone use it? |
| The Short List | Steady | Is it still up and still used? |
Why the bad numbers are still here
A threshold published before the measurement cannot be moved afterwards without everyone seeing it move. That is the entire point, and it is the reason the red rows stay red on this page instead of being rewritten into something kinder. A small number sitting next to a target set in advance says more about how the work is run than a polished summary ever could.
