status

status is a skill for Claude Code from SienkLogic/plan-build-run. It costs 13 tokens per session (4,373 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only project dashboard showing the current planning state and a suggested next action.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review project status, progress, and the next logical step.
Why use it?
It makes it easier to see where a project stands and identify problems or unfinished work.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; names the AskUserQuestion tool; positional $N argument.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is node plugins/pbr/scripts/pbr-tools.js init status.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 439 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

STOP — DO NOT READ THIS FILE. You are already reading it. This prompt was injected into your context by Claude Code's plugin system. Using the Read tool on this SKILL.md file wastes ~7,600 tokens. Begin executing Step 1 immediately.

Step 0 — Immediate Output

Before ANY tool calls, display this banner:

╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  PLAN-BUILD-RUN ► PROJECT STATUS                             ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

Then proceed to Step 1.

/pbr:progress — Project Status Dashboard

You are running the status skill. Your job is to read the project state and present a clear, actionable status dashboard. You suggest the most logical next action based on where the project is.

This skill runs inline and is read-only — it never modifies any files.

References

  • references/questioning.md — Questioning philosophy (for routing intelligence)
  • references/ui-brand.md — Status symbols, banners, progress display format

Core Principle

Show the user where they are and what to do next. The status display should be a quick glance, not a wall of text. Surface problems and route to the right action.


Flow

Step 1: Read Project State

CRITICAL — STOP. You MUST run these CLI commands FIRST. Do NOT skip them. Do NOT read files manually instead.

First, run the init command to capture routing, drift, and metadata:

node plugins/pbr/scripts/pbr-tools.js init status

Store the JSON result as blob. This provides:

  • blob.routing — suggestNext output with blob.routing.command and blob.routing.reason for Step 5 smart routing
  • blob.drift — STATE.md discrepancy warnings (blob.drift.drift_detected, blob.drift.stale_fields)
  • blob.counts.pending_todos, blob.counts.notes, blob.counts.active_debug — directory scan counts
  • blob.has_paused_work — whether .continue-here file exists
  • blob.progress — progress bar data (percentage, completed_plans, total_plans)
  • blob.state — STATE.md frontmatter fields
  • blob.config.mode, blob.config.features, blob.config.workflow — config checks

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.

status is a skill published in the GitHub repository SienkLogic/plan-build-run (17 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 4,373 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
