write-status

write-status is a command for coding agents from animalzinc/claude-plugins. It costs 0 tokens per session (243 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for checking the progress of articles being written.

In plain words
What is it for?
It reports article titles, phases, completed checks, thesis, word-count target, update date, and latest log entry for one or all articles.
Why use it?
It saves time by showing the current stage and recent work without requiring a full review.

Command

Part of the structured-article-writer plugin — 3 commands shipped together

Install

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.

agentmods
npx agentmods add commands/animalzinc/claude-plugins/write-status
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/animalzinc/claude-plugins

Or install structured-article-writer, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 3 commands.

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

write-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 3d 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

/write-status

Quick status check for articles in the writing process.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS — Optional: article slug. If not provided, show all in-progress articles.

Process

If a slug is provided

  1. Read articles/{slug}/state.md
  2. Report:
    • Title: {title}
    • Current phase: Phase {X}/8: {name}
    • Phases completed: list with dates
    • Quality gates passed: list
    • Thesis: {thesis}
    • Target: {word_count_target} words for {target_publication}
    • Last updated: {date}
    • Last log entry: {summary}

If no slug provided

  1. Scan all articles/*/state.md files
  2. For each, report: title, current phase, last updated
  3. Sort by last_updated (most recent first)
  4. Separate into: In Progress / Completed

Keep the output concise — this is a quick status check, not a deep review.

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.
