⚠ This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (repo unreachable/deleted). The test below is what we measured on Jul 19, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.
Executed the skill's own code against sample site data and it ran end-to-end, emitting a formatted text report and a real 4-sheet, ~6.9KB .xlsx (Summary/Work Activities/Labor/Equipment), with status auto-derived from planned vs actual quantities (A-102 with 0 of 200 correctly flagged Delayed). A from-scratch baseline yields ad-hoc prose with no reusable schema or spreadsheet artifact, so the delta is the deterministic status logic plus the exportable workbook. One honest wrinkle: the text summary's 'Total Man-hours' excludes overtime while the Excel 'Total Hours' column adds it, a minor internal inconsistency. The generic name risks over-triggering on non-construction 'daily reports,' which is why trigger is 4 not 5.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 4/5
- Output vs. baseline 7/10
- Docs & honesty 5/5
What Daily Progress Report does
Generates construction daily progress reports from site data, tracking work activities, labor hours, equipment usage, delays, and weather. Ships typed dataclasses and a reporter that derives completed/in-progress/delayed status from planned-vs-actual quantities and exports a multi-sheet Excel plus a plain-text summary. Triggers on construction/field-ops daily reporting from labor, equipment, and site inputs.
How to install Daily Progress Report
Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.
