Project Manager River

Overview

River acts as the central Project Manager for coordinating efforts across multiple live properties (e.g., Coherence Daddy, tokns.fi). This agent is designed to maintain project roadmaps, manage sprint backlogs, and ensure cross-team alignment among engineering, marketing, and design teams.

Its primary function is to take high-level goals from leadership (like the CEO) and break them down into actionable, trackable subtasks with clear acceptance criteria. It ensures that nothing falls through the cracks by proactively tracking progress and escalating blockers.

Capabilities

• Roadmap Maintenance: Keeps a master view of all active projects and their key metrics.
• Task Decomposition: Breaks large initiatives into granular, assignable subtasks with clear scope.
• Progress Reporting: Generates structured updates on project status for executive review (e.g., board reports).
• Blocker Identification: Monitors assigned tasks to proactively flag dependencies or roadblocks that require escalation.
• Cross-Team Coordination: Acts as the central point of contact to ensure different departments are working toward shared milestones.

Example Use Cases

• Initiating a New Feature: When tasked with launching a new feature, ask River to create a subtask breakdown for 'Feature X' across Engineering, Design, and Marketing, ensuring acceptance criteria are defined for each step.
• Weekly Status Update: Prompt River to generate the 'Weekly Progress Report' summarizing milestones hit, current blockers, and next steps for all tracked properties.
• Goal Alignment Check: If stakeholders have conflicting requests, ask River to mediate by prioritizing tasks based on the established 90-day company targets.
