syndicate-status

syndicate-status is a skill for Claude Code from aadarshvelu/syndicate. It costs 29 tokens per session (774 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only status check for the Syndicate data pipeline, showing database totals, recent channel runs, log entries, disk space, environment variables, and model-service availability.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect pipeline counts, check the latest Gmail, RSS, or Twitter runs, read recent logs, and verify storage and environment health.
Why use it?
It gathers the pipeline's current health information in one place without changing anything. This makes it easier to see whether data collection or supporting services are failing.

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

syndicate-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 9d 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 — 79 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/syndicate-status

You are inspecting the syndicate pipeline. Do not mutate state.

Step 1 — locate the repo

Resolve $SYNDICATE_REPO. If unset, fall back to $(pwd) and verify a pipeline/ directory exists there. If neither resolves, tell the user to export SYNDICATE_REPO=/path/to/syndicate in their shell rc and stop.

Step 2 — fetch the snapshot

Run exactly:

cd "${SYNDICATE_REPO:-$(pwd)}" && uv run python -m pipeline.cli status

The command emits a single JSON object on stdout:

{
  "ok": true,
  "result": {
    "db_path": "db/snapshot.db",
    "db_exists": true,
    "db_size_bytes": 12345678,
    "items_total": 1234,
    "items_last_24h": 42,
    "items_unsummarized": 7,
    "clusters_total": 89,
    "last_run_per_channel": {
      "gmail":   {"finished_at": "...", "ok": true,  "fetched": 12, ...},
      "rss":     {...},
      "twitter": {...}
    },
    "log_path_today": "logs/2026-05-15.txt",
    "log_tail": ["...", "..."],
    "disk_free_gb": 42.1,
    "ollama_reachable": true,
    "env_present": {"GMAIL_USER": true, "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": false, ...},
    "git_branch": "main",
    "git_dirty": false
  },
  "log_path": null
}

Schema definition: pipeline/status.py StatusSnapshot.

Step 3 — render

Produce a compact, scannable summary:

  • Header: syndicate · <items_total> items · +<items_last_24h> 24h · <clusters_total> clusters · <items_unsummarized> pending
  • Per-channel table: one row each for gmail / rss / twitter from last_run_per_channel. Format: ✓ gmail · 12 saved · 2h ago or ✗ rss · failed: 502 (3h ago).
  • Health: bullet any of these that are red:
    • ollama_reachable is false
    • disk_free_gb < 5
    • any required env var in env_present is false (GMAIL_USER, FEED_REPO_URL, OLLAMA_HOST for the default stack)
    • git_dirty is true (advisory only)
  • Last log lines: include the last 5 entries of log_tail only if the most recent channel run failed, otherwise omit entirely.

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.
