specrew-status

specrew-status is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from alonf/specrew. It costs 21 tokens per session (752 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only command alias that displays the current status dashboard for a Specrew project. It produces the same result as the Specrew “where” command.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to view project, feature, or iteration status, with optional compact or plain-text output.
Why use it?
It gives contributors a familiar status command without creating a separate status system or implying permission to change the project.

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

specrew-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 4d 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.

specrew-status

Type: Operational Skill Schema: v1 Status: Active (alias) Namespace: /specrew Canonical command: /specrew-status Alias of: /specrew-where

Purpose

Alias for /specrew-where. Show the current Specrew project status dashboard. Produces the exact same semantic result as /specrew-where.

When to Use

  • When a contributor asks for project status using "status" phrasing.
  • Whenever /specrew-where would be appropriate — this command is a full semantic alias.
  • Invoke this skill when the user says: "Show Specrew status", "What's the project status?", or "Status".

Alias Contract

/specrew-status is the only alias in the v1 Specrew slash-command catalog. It is routed to the same backend, uses the same validation path, and produces identical output to /specrew-where. It is not a separate status model.

Boundary Safety

This skill provides read-only status information only. Invoking /specrew-status does not authorize or imply approval to advance any lifecycle boundary.

Invocation

/specrew-status [--project-path <path>] [--feature <id>] [--iteration <NNN>]
                 [--compact] [--ascii] [--no-color] [--json]
                 [--team] [--worktrees] [--recentcount <N>] [--barwidth <N>]

Backed by: specrew status (alias route) -> specrew where / scripts/specrew-where.ps1

Inputs

Input Type Required Description
--project-path string No Target Specrew project path (defaults to current directory)
--feature string No Restrict view to a specific feature directory under specs\
--iteration string No Restrict view to a specific iteration number
--compact flag No Emit a compact single-line summary
--ascii flag No Use ASCII-safe output (no Unicode box-drawing)
--no-color flag No Suppress color output
--json flag No Emit machine-parseable JSON output
--team flag No Include team member status in the view
--worktrees flag No Include worktree awareness information
--recentcount number No Number of recent iterations to include (default: 6)
--barwidth number No Width of progress bar in characters (default: 28)

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.
