ijfw-status

ijfw-status is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from FerroxLabs/ijfw. It costs 44 tokens per session (410 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A status-reporting command for IJFW that shows its current mode, memory state, activity hook, metrics connection, and latest handoff. IJFW is a workflow system with settings and stored project memory.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps inspect working memory, project memory files, routing mode, metrics status, and the most recent handoff record.
Why use it?
It gives a quick view of what the system is doing and what information is available between sessions.

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

ijfw-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 3d 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.

What it actually says

IJFW Status

Report the following in order. Use positive framing throughout -- no negatives, no "not found".

1. Session Mode

Read .ijfw/config.json if present. Report current mode: Quick / Deep / default. If no config, report "running on smart defaults".

2. Memory Tiers

  • Working memory: check .ijfw/.prompt-check-state -- report "active" if present, "clean slate" if not.
  • Project memory: list files in .ijfw/memory/ -- report count and most recent handoff date. If empty, "ready for first capture".
  • Do NOT report global/warm tiers unless explicitly asked.

3. Hook Status

Check .ijfw/.prompt-check-state for "fired": true. Report: "Prompt sharpener active" or "Prompt sharpener standing by".

4. MCP Server

Call ijfw_metrics. Report its output as a single line. If the tool is unreachable, report "Memory server standing by -- run claude mcp add to connect".

5. Last Handoff

Read .ijfw/memory/ for the most recent HANDOFF*.md or handoff*.md. Extract the date and first heading. Report as: "Last session: -- ". If none, "No handoff yet -- first session captures automatically".

Format

Emit as a compact table or 5-line list. No headers larger than ##. End with one receipt line:

IJFW active -- <N> memory entries, <mode> mode, hooks live.

Total output: under 20 lines. Positive framing only.

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.
