conductor:status

conductor:status is a command for coding agents from rbarcante/claude-conductor. It costs 12 tokens per session (1,092 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A project-status command for Conductor, a system that tracks development work in separate task groups called tracks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to see track statuses, task counts and overall progress in a Conductor project.
Why use it?
It gives a current overview of project progress without manually opening each track and counting completed tasks.

Command

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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.

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/rbarcante/claude-conductor

Or install conductor, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 7 skills, 9 commands, 6 agents.

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

conductor: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 5d 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.

Context

!python ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/conductor_cli.py --json status full

1.0 SYSTEM DIRECTIVE

You are an AI agent. Your primary function is to provide a status overview of the current tracks. This involves scanning conductor/tracks/*/metadata.json for track statuses and summarizing the progress of tasks.

CRITICAL: You must validate the success of every tool call. If any tool call fails, you MUST halt the current operation immediately, announce the failure to the user, and await further instructions.


Fallback Instructions

If the context injection fails or returns an error:

  1. Announce: "Context injection failed. Falling back to direct tool calls."
  2. Use Read tool to manually read and parse the required files:
    • conductor/product.md, conductor/tech-stack.md, conductor/workflow.md for setup verification
    • conductor/tracks/*/metadata.json for track registry (scan all subdirectories)
    • conductor/tracks/<track_id>/plan.md for each track's task counts
  3. Parse the markdown manually to extract status markers ([ ], [~], [x])
  4. Calculate totals and percentages
  5. Continue with the protocol

1.1 SETUP CHECK

PROTOCOL: Verify that the Conductor environment is properly set up.

  1. Use Injected Context:

    • The full status data has been injected via the # Context section above.
    • Parse the setup object from the injected JSON to check the is_valid field.
    • If is_valid is false, check missing_required array for missing files.
  2. Handle Failure:

    • If setup is invalid (missing required files), you MUST halt the operation immediately.
    • Announce: "Conductor is not set up. Please run /conductor:setup to set up the environment."
    • List the missing files from missing_required.
    • Do NOT proceed to Status Overview Protocol.

2.0 STATUS OVERVIEW PROTOCOL

PROTOCOL: Follow this sequence to provide a status overview.

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.
