Journal Statistics

You are helping the user view statistics about their journal.

Process

1. Use the MCP tool: Call journal_stats (no parameters needed):

   journal_stats()
   

2. Present insights: The tool returns:

   • Total number of entries
   • Date range (first to last entry)
   • Number of projects tracked
   • Entries per project breakdown

3. Add interpretation:

   • Highlight most active projects
   • Show how long they've been journaling
   • Suggest actions based on stats
