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

ace: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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

This is a lightweight alternative to /ace:progress - same information, faster output.

1. Quick State Check

if PROJECT.md does not exist:
    Display:
    [!] No project. Run /ace:new-project or /ace:init
    EXIT

if ROADMAP.md does not exist:
    Display:
    [!] No roadmap. Run /ace:create-roadmap
    EXIT

2. Compact Status Display

Read STATE.md and display:

+----------------------------------------------+
|  [Project Name]                              |
+----------------------------------------------+
  Phase: [X]/[Y] - [Phase Name]
  Plan:  [A]/[B] - [Plan Name]
  Status: [Ready/In Progress/Complete]

  [##########..........] 50%

  Next: /ace:[suggested-command]
+----------------------------------------------+

3. Progress Bar Calculation

Calculate overall progress:
- Count completed phases
- Count completed plans in current phase
- Show as visual bar: [####........] XX%

Formula:
  completedPhases = phases marked complete
  currentPhasePlans = plans completed in current phase / total plans
  overallProgress = (completedPhases + currentPhasePlans) / totalPhases * 100

4. Quick Next Action

Based on STATUS field in STATE.md:

Status Suggestion
needs-roadmap /ace:create-roadmap
ready-to-plan /ace:plan-phase [N]
ready-to-execute /ace:execute-plan
in-progress /ace:resume-work
phase-complete /ace:plan-phase [N+1]
all-complete Project finished!

5. Resume File Detection

if .continue-here*.md exists:
    Add to output:
    [i] Resume file found - run /ace:resume-work

<success_criteria>

  • Status displayed in 5 lines or less
  • Progress bar shown
  • Next action clearly suggested
  • Executes quickly (minimal file reads) </success_criteria>

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.
