project-awareness

project-awareness is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jmagly/aiwg. It costs 25 tokens per session (2,267 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project-context detector that identifies the project type, technology stack, framework state, team setup, recent activity, and current work. A monorepo is one repository containing multiple related projects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to ask where a project stands, identify its current lifecycle phase, inspect team assignments, check iteration status, and suggest next actions.
Why use it?
It removes the need to gather project context from many files and tools before deciding what to do next. It can also highlight blockers and active work.

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

project-awareness 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/project_awareness.py, scripts/status_check.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 364 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

project-awareness

Comprehensive project context detection and state awareness.

Triggers

Alternate expressions and non-obvious activations (primary phrases are matched automatically from the skill description):

  • "where are we" / "what's next" → project state summary
  • "what's blocking" in project context → status + blockers
  • "sprint status" → iteration awareness

Purpose

This skill provides rich project context awareness including:

  • Project type and technology stack detection
  • AIWG framework state (installed frameworks, current phase)
  • Team configuration and agent assignments
  • Recent activity and artifact status
  • Active work detection (branches, PRs, iterations)
  • Recommendations for next actions

Behavior

When triggered, this skill:

  1. Detects project type:

    • Monorepo vs single project
    • Library vs application vs service
    • Web, API, CLI, mobile, etc.
    • Programming languages and frameworks
  2. Identifies AIWG state:

    • Installed frameworks (SDLC, MMK, addons)
    • Current lifecycle phase
    • Active iteration (if applicable)
    • Deployed agents and commands
  3. Parses team configuration:

    • Team roster from .aiwg/team/
    • Agent assignments
    • Role responsibilities
  4. Loads recent activity:

    • Git log (recent commits, active branches)
    • Recent artifact changes
    • Open PRs and issues
  5. Builds context object:

    • Structured data for other skills
    • Summary for user display
    • Recommendations for next actions

Trigger Phrase Mappings

Natural Language Action
"Where are we?" Check phase status, recent activity
"What's next?" Identify pending tasks, next milestone
"Project status" Full status report
"Current phase" Phase name + completion percentage
"Ready to transition?" Gate criteria check
"What's blocking us?" Risk register + blockers
"How long until..." Milestone progress estimate
"Who owns..." Team and agent assignments

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.
