What is a Mission?

A mission is RUSVEL’s daily planning system, powered by the Forge engine. It reads your active goals, checks the state of all departments, and generates a prioritized task list for the day.

The workflow is: set goals > generate daily plan > execute > review progress.

Set Goals

Goals are high-level objectives with a timeframe. They drive what the daily plan prioritizes.

Via the Web UI

  1. Navigate to the Forge department from the sidebar
  2. Click the “Set new goal” quick action
  3. The Forge agent will ask for context and help you define the goal

Via the CLI

# Add a goal with default month timeframe
cargo run -- forge mission goal add "Launch MVP"

# Add a goal with specific timeframe and description
cargo run -- forge mission goal add "Get 10 beta users" \
  --description "Recruit beta testers from HN and Reddit" \
  --timeframe week

# List all goals
cargo run -- forge mission goals

Output from goals:

The daily plan is an AI-generated prioritized task list based on your goals and current state.

Via the Web UI

  1. Open the Forge department
  2. Click “Daily plan” quick action
  3. The agent generates tasks with priorities and focus areas

Via the CLI

cargo run -- forge mission today

Output:

Periodic reviews summarize what was accomplished and identify blockers.
