status

A command that shows the previous MindLink session summary, including completed work, next steps, and memory statistics. MindLink is a project memory system for coding-agent sessions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Starting a session, reviewing completed work, checking planned next steps, and viewing memory statistics; JSON output is available for scripts.
Why use it?
It helps you quickly recover project context instead of reconstructing what happened last time.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

status scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Show last session summary and what's next.


Synopsis

mindlink status [--json]

Description

Reads .brain/SESSION.md and .brain/LOG.md and surfaces the most relevant context from your last session: what was completed, what's coming up next, and basic memory stats.

Useful at the start of a session to quickly orient yourself before opening an AI agent.


Output

Last session — Apr 9, 2026

Completed
✓  Scaffolded auth module
✓  Fixed login redirect bug
✓  Decided: use JWT, not sessions

Up next
→  Write tests for auth middleware
→  Hook up password reset flow

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

status is a command published in the GitHub repository 404-not-found/mindlink (11 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 308 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
