Maintenance Log Entry

The user is reporting maintenance work on N720AK. Process their input and add it to the appropriate digital maintenance log.

Input

$ARGUMENTS

Steps

1. Determine the correct log file based on what system was worked on:

   • Engine work (oil, filters, plugs, compression, accessories) → engine-log.tsv
   • Airframe work (structure, gear, controls, condition inspection) → airframe-log.tsv
   • Propeller/governor work → propeller-log.tsv
   • Avionics work (software, databases, wiring, antennas) → avionics-log.tsv

2. Read the target log file at: ~/Library/CloudStorage/GoogleDrive-sritchie09@gmail.com/My Drive/N720AK/Private/Maintenance/

3. Extract or ask for these fields (ask only for what's missing — don't overwhelm):

   • Date: Default to today if not specified
   • Tach/Hobbs: Current readings — ask if not provided
   • Total Time: Airframe total time if known
   • Work Type: One of: Maintenance, Inspection, Repair, Modification, Overhaul
   • Description: Detailed narrative of what was done
   • Parts Used: Part numbers and quantities if applicable
   • Reference: AD, SB, or manual reference if applicable
   • Performed By: Who did the work (default: Sam Ritchie)
   • Cost: If mentioned
   • Next Due: Hours or date for next occurrence if this is a recurring item
   • Notes: Anything else relevant

4. Append a new TSV row to the log file using the Edit tool. Match the existing column order exactly.

5. Check recurring-items.tsv — if this work satisfies a recurring item, update the "Last Done Date" and "Last Done Tach" / "Last Done Hobbs" columns.

6. Check squawks.tsv — if this work resolves an open squawk, update its Status to "Cleared", fill in Corrective Action, Cleared By, and Date Cleared.

7. Proactively suggest related items:

   • Oil change → "Did you send a sample to Blackstone? Cut the filter?"
   • Spark plugs → "What were the gap measurements? Any fouling?"
   • Compression check → "What were the readings for each cylinder?"
   • Condition inspection → "Who signed it off? Any squawks found?"
   • Any engine work → "Did you do a run-up afterward? Any leaks?"

Important

• The user may dictate casually — extract structured data from conversational input
• Always confirm the entry before writing (show a summary)
• If multiple systems were worked on, create entries in multiple log files
• Paper logbooks are the legal record — remind the user to update paper logs for anything requiring a signature (condition inspection sign-off)
