# Manage-Project Skill -- Research Project Management

## Commands

### `/manage-project init {name} --type {type} --journal {journal} [--ssot] [--zotero-collection NAME]`

**Parameters:**
- `{name}` -- Project identifier (e.g., `nnunet-skull-fracture`, `rfa-meta-analysis`)
- `--type` -- Paper type: `original | meta | case | animal | technical | ai_validation | letter`
- `--journal` -- Target journal: `RYAI | AJR | Radiology | European_Radiology | KJR | INSI | AJNR | generic`
- `--ssot` -- Emit `SSOT.yaml` (schema v1) from `templates/SSOT.yaml.template` instead of legacy `project.yaml`. Required, but not sufficient, for Phase 1C auto-enforce (the PostToolUse verify-refs hook blocks instead of warns): enforce also needs `qc/migration_complete`, which init does not write. After init, run `migrate_project_to_ssot.py --project-root {target_dir} --mark-complete` to validate the SSOT.yaml and write the marker. New projects should pass `--ssot`; legacy in-flight projects stay on `project.yaml` until `/manage-project migrate-ssot` is run.
- `--zotero-collection NAME` -- Optional. Create a Zotero collection via pyzotero and populate `library_id` + `collection_key` in the contract. Requires `ZOTERO_API_KEY` + `ZOTERO_LIBRARY_ID` (optionally `ZOTERO_LIBRARY_TYPE`, default `user`). With pyzotero or the credentials missing, the contract is scaffolded with `library_id: null` / `collection_key: null` and a WARN is printed.

**SSOT template substitutions:** `{{PROJECT_ID}}` → `{name}`; `{{PROJECT_TYPE}}` → the SSOT
