status

A project status view summarises an epic's running, available, blocked, and completed tasks. It also maps which files active tasks own and identifies work that could be done in parallel.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect task dependencies, active work, file ownership, unclaimed files, parallel opportunities, and the project's worktree and execution settings.
Why use it?
It shows not only how much work is done, but why other work may be waiting and where people or agents might conflict. This makes the next safe task easier to choose.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 113 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

Setup

  1. If $ARGUMENTS contains an epic ID, use it. Otherwise, find the most recent open epic:
    coco-tracker epic-status
    
    Pick the most recent non-closed epic from the output.

Execution

1. Get Epic State

coco-tracker epic-status {epic-id}
coco-tracker list --json --epic {epic-id}

2. Categorize Tasks

Group tasks by status:

  • Running (in_progress): Currently being worked on
  • Available (pending, not blocked): Ready to start
  • Blocked (pending, has unresolved blockers): Waiting on dependencies
  • Completed: Done

3. File Ownership Map

For each running task, read owns_files from metadata (if present) and display:

File Ownership
==============
Task {id} ({title}):
  - {file pattern 1}
  - {file pattern 2}

Unclaimed:
  - {remaining file patterns}

4. Parallel Opportunities

Identify tasks that could run in parallel right now:

Parallel Opportunities
======================
Available tasks with no file conflicts:
  1. {task title} (no overlap with running tasks)

Cannot parallelize:
  - {task title} (blocked by {blocking-tasks})

5. Worktree / Parallel Status

Read loop.parallel.enabled from .coco/config.yaml. If parallel execution is enabled:

Parallel Execution
==================
Mode: {enabled | disabled}
Max agents: {max_agents}

Active Worktrees:
  - worktree-{task-id}: {task title} ({status: running | completed | failed})
    Branch: {issue-branch}
    PR: #{pr-number} ({review status})

Merge Queue:
  - PR #{N}: {task title} (awaiting review)

Recently Completed:
  - {task-id}: {title} -- merged via PR #{N}

If parallel execution is not enabled, skip this section.

6. Dependency Graph

Show the dependency tree with status indicators:

Dependency Graph
================
[x] Phase 1: Setup
[x] Phase 2: Foundational
  +-- [>] Phase 3: US1 (in_progress)
  +-- [ ] Phase 4: US2 (available)
  +-- [~] Phase 5: Polish (blocked by 3, 4)

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 skullninja/coco-workflow (7 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 649 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-08-31.
