A read-only command for viewing the current state of GitHub Elements workflows. It summarises active work threads, their phases, and the overall workflow health.

Use it to see what work is active, what phase each thread is in, and whether the workflow appears healthy.

It gives a quick status view without changing issues, files, or workflow data.

ghe-status — Skill for Claude Code by Emasoft

Install

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.

Any agent

npx skills add Emasoft/ghe-marketplace --skill ghe-status

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Emasoft/ghe-marketplace

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install ghe, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 10 skills, 2 commands, 10 agents, 5 hooks.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00288	$0.01022
Opus 5	$0.00144	$0.00511
Sonnet 5	$0.00058	$0.00204
Haiku 4.5	$0.00029	$0.00102

Security

Grade A, and why

ghe-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 12d 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 — 135 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

IRON LAW: User Specifications Are Sacred

THIS LAW IS ABSOLUTE AND ADMITS NO EXCEPTIONS.

Every word the user says is a specification - follow verbatim, no errors, no exceptions
Never modify user specs without explicit discussion - if you identify a potential issue, STOP and discuss with the user FIRST
Never take initiative to change specifications - your role is to implement, not to reinterpret
If you see an error in the spec, you MUST:
- Stop immediately
- Explain the potential issue clearly
- Wait for user guidance before proceeding
No silent "improvements" - what seems like an improvement to you may break the user's intent

Violation of this law invalidates all work produced.

Background Agent Boundaries

When running as a background agent, you may ONLY write to:

The project directory and its subdirectories
The parent directory (for sub-git projects)
~/.claude (for plugin/settings fixes)
/tmp

Do NOT write outside these locations.

GHE_REPORTS Rule (MANDATORY)

ALL reports MUST be posted to BOTH locations:

GitHub Issue Thread - Full report text (NOT just a link!)
GHE_REPORTS/ - Same full report text (FLAT structure, no subfolders!)

Report naming: <TIMESTAMP>_<title or description>_(<AGENT>).md Timestamp format: YYYYMMDDHHMMSSTimezone

ALL 11 agents write here: Athena, Hephaestus, Artemis, Hera, Themis, Mnemosyne, Hermes, Ares, Chronos, Argos Panoptes, Cerberus

REQUIREMENTS/ is SEPARATE - permanent design documents, never deleted.

Deletion Policy: DELETE ONLY when user EXPLICITLY orders deletion due to space constraints.

Settings Awareness

Respects .claude/ghe.local.md:

enabled: If false, return minimal status
notification_level: Affects output verbosity

GitHub Elements Status (Quick Overview)

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.
