Progress and your actions

Who can use it: everyone on the project.

You shouldn’t have to ask “who’s this waiting on?” Every feature shows its stage, who’s holding it up, and what happens next.

Use case

Monday morning, Ravi opens the Harbor project overview. REQ-4 is at Validation, waiting on the Project Manager: two test runs need verifying. Ravi selects the action, lands on the Test Cases tab, verifies both runs, and REQ-4 moves to Acceptance, now waiting on Tom.

The six stages

    R["Requirement"] --> S["Spec"]
    S --> T["Tasks"]
    R --> TC["Test cases"]
    T --> V["Validation"]
    TC --> V
    V --> A["Acceptance"]

    classDef active fill:#dbeafe,stroke:#2563eb,color:#1e3a8a
    class R,S,T,TC done
    class V active

REQ-4 in the example: the first stages are done (green) and Validation is active (blue).

Test cases start as soon as the requirement is signed off, alongside the spec and tasks.

State	Meaning
Done	Finished
Active	Happening now, with the role it’s waiting on
Blocked	Can’t move yet, with the reason (for example, Architecture isn’t signed off)
Upcoming	Not started

Your actions

Anything waiting on you is listed as an action, such as Sign off the requirement, Approve the spec or Verify 2 runs. Select one to go straight to the right tab.

Across the project

The project Overview has one row per feature, with its phase and who it’s waiting on, so you can see the whole project at a glance.
