## Description

A GTD (Getting Things Done) project management MCP server that automates the creation of structured project files with YAML frontmatter and markdown templates following the GTD Natural Planning Model. The server validates project metadata against configured areas of focus, prevents duplicate project creation across folders (active, incubator, completed, descoped), and generates appropriate templates based on project type (standard, coordination, habit). It includes project completion functionality that checks for open next actions and moves completed projects with proper date tracking, making it useful for maintaining consistent GTD workflows, automating project lifecycle management, and ensuring proper organization of personal productivity systems.
