Glancely

Personal tracker framework. Scaffold new habit/workout/mood/reminder trackers from natural language. Dashboard, cron, all in one skill.

What glancely is

A personal tracker framework that puts all your habits in one dashboard. You describe what you want to track, and glancely scaffolds it — migrations, cron, dashboard panel — in one command.

Routing user intent

When a user asks for something, follow this dispatch table:

User says	Action
"log mood" / "how I feel"	Check ~/.glancely/components/mood/. If exists → read SKILL.md → run log.py. If not → read examples/mood/SKILL.md for reference → scaffold first, then log.
"remind me" / "add reminder"	Check ~/.glancely/components/reminder/. Same fallback to examples/reminder/SKILL.md.
"what's my MIT" / "most important task"	Check ~/.glancely/components/mit/. Fallback to examples/mit/SKILL.md.
"log diary" / "track time"	Check ~/.glancely/components/diary_logger/. Fallback to examples/diary_logger/SKILL.md.
"build dashboard" / "show dashboard"	Run glancely dashboard build and open ~/.glancely/dashboard/index.html.
"create tracker" / "track my" / "scaffold a habit"	Read glancely/skills/scaffold_component/SKILL.md. Infer fields, cron, notifications from the user's description. Propose a plan. Confirm. Scaffold.
"what trackers do I have"	Run glancely list.

Per-route workflow

1. Check if the user already has a matching component in ~/.glancely/components/
2. If yes: read its SKILL.md for field docs, then call its scripts/log.py
3. If no: read the matching example in examples/ for reference, then use the scaffold flow to create it first
4. Report the result

Setup

If glancely CLI is missing or ~/.glancely/ does not exist:

1. Install the package: pip3 install glancely (or pip install glancely if pip3 isn't available; use pipx install glancely on macOS Homebrew/PEP 668 systems)
2. Run glancely setup (minimal init — migrations only)
3. If user wants cron, ask for agent_id / session info and write ~/.glancely/openclaw.toml

Scaffold flow (via scaffold_component/SKILL.md)

1. Analyze the user's goal. Infer tracker name, fields, cron schedule, notification text.
2. Propose a plan — list trackers, fields, and cron before touching anything. Ask for confirmation.
3. Scaffold each confirmed tracker: glancely scaffold --name ... --field ... --cron ... --notify ...
4. Dashboard auto-builds after each scaffold.
