- All integrated into daily/weekly routines

PARA Work Structure:
- 01-projects/work/: 10 project folders (placeholders ready for customization)

Work Integration Quick Start Guide

Quick reference for using your work integration with Basecamp, Outline, and Teams.

🚀 First-Time Setup

1. Customize Your Projects

The 10 projects in 01-projects/work/ are placeholders. Customize them:

# Option A: Fetch from Basecamp (when MCP is ready)
"Show my Basecamp projects" → Get actual project names

# Option B: Manual customization
cd ~/CODEX/01-projects/work
# Rename folders to match your actual Basecamp projects
# Update each _index.md with:
#   - Correct project name
#   - Actual Basecamp project ID
#   - Real deadline
#   - Actual status

2. Set Up Outline MCP

# Install Outline MCP server
pip install mcp-outline

# Configure in your Opencode/MCP client
# See: https://github.com/Vortiago/mcp-outline
# Set OUTLINE_API_KEY and OUTLINE_API_URL

3. Test Basecamp Connection

# Test Basecamp MCP
"Show my Basecamp projects"

# Should list your actual projects
# If successful, ready to use

📅 Daily Work Workflow

Morning Planning

"Start day" or "/chiron-start"

What happens:

Checks yesterday's completed tasks
Fetches today's Basecamp todos
Searches Outline for relevant wiki docs
Creates integrated morning plan

Work priorities (from Basecamp)
Personal priorities (from PARA areas)
Meeting schedule
Deep work blocks protected

During Work Day

Check Basecamp status:

"What's in API Integration Platform?"
"Show my Basecamp todos due today"
"Search Basecamp for OAuth2"

Search wiki for context:

"Search Outline for authentication best practices"
"Search Outline for API rate limiting"

Quick capture:

"Capture: OAuth2 needs refresh token logic"
# → Saved to 00-inbox/work/

Process meeting transcript:

"Process transcript: api-design-review.docx"
# → Creates meeting note
# → Extracts action items
# → Optionally syncs to Basecamp

Evening Reflection

"End day" or "/chiron-end"

What happens:

Reviews completed Basecamp tasks
Captures work wins and learnings
Checks project progress
Plans tomorrow's work priorities
Updates work metrics

📊 Weekly Work Review

"Weekly review" or "/chiron-review"

What happens:

Checks all Basecamp project status (completion %, overdue items)
Reviews work area health
Identifies at-risk projects
Plans next week's work priorities
Processes work inbox

Output includes:

Work metrics (tasks completed, projects progressed)
Work wins and challenges
Project status overview (on track, behind, at risk)
Work area health review
Next week's priorities

🔧 Tool-Specific Commands

Basecamp (Project Management)

List all projects:

"Show my Basecamp projects"

"What's in API Integration Platform?"
"What's status of Customer Portal Redesign?"

Create todos:

"Add todos to API Integration Platform"
# → Prompts for: project, todo list, tasks with due dates

Search content:

"Search Basecamp for OAuth2"

Outline (Wiki Knowledge)

Export to Obsidian:

"Export OAuth2 Setup Guide to Obsidian"
# → Saves to 03-resources/work/wiki-mirror/
# → Adds frontmatter with outline source
# → Links to related projects/areas

Create wiki document:

"Create Outline doc: API Authentication Decision"
# → Creates in Outline with provided content
# → Adds to appropriate collection

Teams (Meetings)

Process transcript:

"Process transcript: [filename.docx]"

Workflow:

Upload transcript file
Extract text from DOCX
AI analysis extracts: attendees, topics, decisions, action items

Optionally syncs action items to Basecamp

Manual steps (see skills/meeting-notes/references/teams-transcript-workflow.md):

# Step 1: Download transcript from Teams
# Step 2: Extract text
python extract_transcript.py transcript.docx

🔗 Integration Examples

Example 1: Starting a New Project

# 1. Create project in PARA (manually or from plan-writing)
# 2. Create project folder in 01-projects/work/
# 3. Link to Basecamp (if project exists there)

User: "What's the status of API Integration Platform in Basecamp?"
→ Gets: 65% complete, next milestone: OAuth2 endpoints

User: "Search Outline for OAuth2 setup guides"
→ Gets: 3 relevant documents

User: "Export OAuth2 Setup Guide to Obsidian"
→ Saves to project/notes/oauth2-setup-guide.md
→ Links from project MOC

Example 2: Processing a Meeting

User: "Process transcript: api-design-review.docx"

System:
1. Extracts text from DOCX
2. AI analyzes: attendees, topics, decisions, action items
3. Creates meeting note: 01-projects/work/api-integration-platform/meetings/api-design-review-20260128.md
4. Outputs action items:
   - [ ] Create OAuth2 implementation guide #meeting #todo 🔼 👤 @alice 📅 2026-02-05
   - [ ] Document rate limiting policy #meeting #todo 🔼 👤 @bob 📅 2026-02-10

User: "Sync action items to Basecamp?"
→ System creates 2 todos in API Integration Platform project
→ Assigns to Alice and Bob
→ Sets due dates

Example 3: Daily Work Flow

Morning:
"/chiron-start"
→ Gets: 5 Basecamp todos due today
→ Gets: 2 meetings scheduled
→ Searches Outline: "API authentication patterns"
→ Creates integrated plan:
   - Work: Complete OAuth2 flow (P0)
   - Work: Review dashboard mockups (P1)
   - Meeting: Architecture review (2pm)
   - Deep work: 9-11am (OAuth2)

During work:
"Search Basecamp for OAuth2"
→ Finds: 3 docs, 2 todos

Evening:
"/chiron-end"
→ Reviews: OAuth2 flow complete
→ Captures: Learning about token refresh pattern
→ Checks project: 70% complete now
→ Plans: Tomorrow: Finish API endpoints

💡 Best Practices

Daily Use

Start with morning plan - Sets focus for the day
Check Basecamp first - Prioritize work tasks
Search Outline for context - Get knowledge before starting
Quick capture interruptions - Don't break flow, capture and continue
End with evening reflection - Review and plan tomorrow

Weekly Use

Dedicated time - 60-90 minutes for weekly review
Check all projects - Don't forget any
Review area health - Balance attention across responsibilities
Process inbox - Keep 00-inbox/ clean
Plan next week - Set priorities, don't just review

Tool Use

Basecamp for tasks - Live task tracking
Outline for knowledge - Persistent wiki access
Obsidian for storage - Tool-agnostic knowledge
Teams transcripts - Process within 24 hours
AI for analysis - Extract insights from transcripts/docs

🔧 Troubleshooting

Basecamp MCP Not Working

Check:

MCP server running?
API key configured?
Connection to Basecamp?

Outline MCP Not Working

Check:

pip install mcp-outline completed?
OUTLINE_API_KEY set?
OUTLINE_API_URL correct?

Project Not Found in Basecamp

Check:

Project name matches exactly?
Project in correct workspace?

Wiki Search No Results

Try:

Broader query (fewer keywords)
Remove collection_id to search everywhere
Use ask_ai_about_documents for semantic search

Transcript Processing Fails

Check:

DOCX file valid?
python-docx installed?
AI prompt clear enough?
