status

A command that reports the state of a project's current development-workflow feature by reading its working-document files. It shows the active feature, approved phases, review findings, and approval lock.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check feature progress, see which phase is current or next, review outstanding findings, and confirm whether work is locked pending approval.
Why use it?
It gives developers a short, reliable status update from project files instead of relying on conversation history. It also identifies the most useful next action.

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 yesterday.

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

Report the current state of the dev-workflow feature in progress. Do this by reading the project's working docs (do NOT rely on conversation memory):

  1. Resolve the active feature: read .dev-workflow/active for the slug, then read spec.md, plan.md, phase-log.md from .dev-workflow/features/<slug>/. Fall back to the project root for the legacy single-feature layout. Read .approval-gate at the repo root if present.
  2. Print a concise status:
    • Active feature (from the spec/phase-log title).
    • The chosen solution in one line (from spec.md), if decided.
    • Phases: how many are USER APPROVED vs total, and which phase is current / next (the first not-yet-approved phase in phase-log.md).
    • Any outstanding review findings recorded for the current phase.
    • Approval gate state (LOCKED / UNLOCKED / not set).
    • The single most useful next action.
  3. If none of these files exist, say there is no active dev-workflow feature and suggest running /dev-workflow:init and /dev-workflow:feature.

Keep it short — this is a status readout, not a full report. Do not modify any files.

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.

status is a command published in the GitHub repository tandnguyendev/dev-workflow (2 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 308 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.
