status

A status view for a group of coordinating AI agents, sometimes called a swarm. It shows their current structure, progress, resource use, and overall health.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check the current swarm, monitor it in real time, view agent measurements, and run health checks for coordination, memory, and learned patterns.
Why use it?
It lets you see what the coordination system is doing while Claude Code handles the actual coding and commands.

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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to status — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Check Coordination Status

🎯 Key Principle

This tool coordinates Claude Code's actions. It does NOT write code or create content.

MCP Tool Usage in Claude Code

Tool: mcp__claude-flow__swarm_status

Parameters

{
  "swarmId": "current"
}

Description

Monitor the effectiveness of current coordination patterns

Details

Shows:

  • Active coordination topologies
  • Current cognitive patterns in use
  • Task breakdown and progress
  • Resource utilization for coordination
  • Overall system health

Example Usage

In Claude Code:

  1. Check swarm status: Use tool mcp__claude-flow__swarm_status
  2. Monitor in real-time: Use tool mcp__claude-flow__swarm_monitor with parameters {"interval": 1000}
  3. Get agent metrics: Use tool mcp__claude-flow__agent_metrics with parameters {"agentId": "agent-123"}
  4. Health check: Use tool mcp__claude-flow__health_check with parameters {"components": ["swarm", "memory", "neural"]}

Important Reminders

  • ✅ This tool provides coordination and structure
  • ✅ Claude Code performs all actual implementation
  • ❌ The tool does NOT write code
  • ❌ The tool does NOT access files directly
  • ❌ The tool does NOT execute commands

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 shyftlabs/continuum (84 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 331 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to status, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
