## What you'll do

Two days before launch, you want to catch problems before Northstar does. You'll run a health check on the launch project, turn what it finds into tasks, and send the client a short update through an approved weekly review.

## Steps

1. Open **Projects** and then the Patient portal launch project.
2. Choose **Run Health Check**. It looks at stale tasks, blocked requests, missing decisions, and recent notes.
3. Read the findings. Say it reports: two tasks untouched for a week, a request with no reply, and an unsigned decision.
4. Act on each finding. Reassign or update the stale tasks, reply to the request, and use **Remind** on the decision.
5. Check the commercial side. Are there unbilled hours or an overdue invoice for Northstar?
6. Choose **Run Weekly Review**, edit the client update draft, and stage it. Once it's approved, it appears in Northstar's portal.

## Example: What you should see

- Every risk the check found now has an owner, a reply, or a reminder.
- The client update is saved as a client-update note on the project after approval.
- Both runs are listed in [Agent activity](https://flopinio.com/help/agent-activity).

## Note: No AI access?

Do the same review by hand. Sort the project's tasks by last updated, filter requests by **Needs response**, and check decisions waiting on sign-off.

## FAQ

### Does the health check change anything?

No. It reports what it found. You decide what to change.

### Does the weekly update go straight to the client?

No. Staging creates an approval. It's only saved, and shown in the portal, after the approval is accepted.
