status

A command that displays the current state of a Brigade project, including sprint tasks, review decisions, and carried-over lessons. Brigade is a project workflow that organizes work into roles, sprints, and waves.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check whether the project is configured for Brigade, identify the current sprint, see task statuses and dependencies, and review reports.
Why use it?
It gives a quick view of project progress without manually opening many planning files.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 103 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are printing a status dashboard for the current brigade state. Read-only — never modify files. Goal: give the user a quick overview without opening 10 files manually.

Step 1 — Locate state

Check if this is a brigade-enabled project:

  • If .planning/tasks/ROLES.md does not exist → print: "Not a brigade project. Run /brigade:init to bootstrap." and stop.

Read:

  • .planning/tasks/ROLES.md — roles and agent mapping
  • .planning/ARCHITECTURE.md (if exists) — module count
  • .planning/learnings.md (if exists) — recent patterns
  • .planning/tasks/sprint-*/ — all sprint directories

Step 2 — Identify current sprint

Pick the highest-numbered sprint. Read its _README.md for goal, waves, file map.

Step 3 — Parse task specs

For each task file in the current sprint (S{N}.{M}-*.md):

  1. Read frontmatter: id, title, role, status, wave, depends
  2. Determine effective status:
    • done — status: done
    • in-progress — status: in-progress OR has feature branch feat/s{N}.{M}-* in git
    • blocked — any depends task is not yet done
    • todo — otherwise

Step 4 — Check review reports

For each wave with reports in reviews/:

  • Read wave-{W}-summary.md if exists → extract verdict + counts
  • Otherwise scan individual review files

Step 5 — Print the status

Format (use ANSI colors for terminal, fall back to plain text if not):

brigade status — {project-path}

Sprint {N} — {done}/{total} tasks done ({pct}%)
Goal: {sprint goal from _README.md}

  {icon} {id} {title:40}  {agent:15} {model:8} {notes}

Waves:
  Wave 1 {icon} ({task count})   — {verdict or "in progress" or "pending"}
  Wave 2 ...

{if learnings exists}
Learnings carry-over from previous sprints:
  - {pattern}: {suggestion}
  - ...
{endif}

{if any task blocked}
Blocked:
  {id} {title} — waiting on {dependency}
{endif}

Next action: {suggestion based on state}

Icons

  • green — done
  • yellow — in progress
  • gray — todo
  • red — blocked
  • red — failed / REQUEST 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 ushibo/brigade (1 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 915 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.
