Opening this issue per @ilan-pinto's request.
I'm on board with adopting Ghost, but while attempting to integrate my own automation tooling, I discovered several gaps that should be addressed before migration can proceed smoothly.
Issues Identified
1. Missing low-level documentation
The README covers setup and lists MCP tools, but there's no documentation for:
- Entity definitions and data model
- How
log_activity relates to manual reports
- Architecture for AI agents to understand the system
2. Unclear entity definitions
The relationship between log_activity entries (which auto-attach to reports) and manually-created reports (with free-form text) is confusing. It's not clear when to use which, or how they relate to each other.
3. No migration path from existing system
The old system routes reports to managers based on Category → Initiative → Project. Ghost routes based on Team membership. There's no documented mapping between these concepts, and no clear equivalent for Epic and Achievements in Ghost's data model.
4. Limited manager adoption
Currently only one manager is using Ghost. For projects managed by other managers (e.g., NIM Integration), we still need to use the old Google Form workflow. This means we need a clear path for integration tools that can work with both systems simultaneously.
How I discovered this
I have my own automation tool for weekly reports. I forked this repo to integrate the two - allowing my agent to push reports directly to Ghost. That's when I discovered the entity mismatch: there's no clear mapping between the old system's components (Category/Initiative/Project/Epic/Achievements) and Ghost's data model.
Suggested next steps
