session-status

session-status is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from WellApp-ai/Well. It costs 16 tokens per session (1,230 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A session-tracking format that adds breadcrumb navigation, elapsed-time targets, and simple flow metrics to agent responses. Takt time means the target time for completing a step; muda is a term for wasted effort.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to label responses, track progress through planning or implementation phases, and record session metrics for later review.
Why use it?
It makes the current phase, progress, and delays visible during longer agent sessions. This helps identify when work is moving normally, waiting, or taking too long.

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

session-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 1mo 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.

Session Status Skill

Generate consistent navigation breadcrumbs showing current position, takt time, and session metrics.

When to Use

  • At START of every Ask/Agent/Plan mode response
  • At END of every Ask/Agent/Plan mode response
  • When session metrics are needed for Session Journal sync

Phase 1: Gather State

Collect current session state:

Data Source
Feature name From init context or branch name
Current phase DIVERGE / CONVERGE / DEFINE / AGENT
Loop count Incremented on each user feedback cycle
Progress Validated items / total items
Duration Time since phase started
Status G (flow) / Y (waiting) / R (stopped)

Phase 2: Calculate Takt

Compare duration against targets from 03-shared.mdc:

Phase Target Warning Stop
DIVERGE (per loop) 15min 30min 60min
CONVERGE 20min 40min 90min
DEFINE 10min 20min 45min
Commit (each) 10min 20min 30min

Determine suffix:

  • Under target: (none)
  • Warning exceeded: !
  • Stop exceeded: !!

Phase 3: Format Header

Generate single-line breadcrumb:

Format: [STATUS] | [Feature] | [PHASE_PROGRESS] | L[N] | [X]/[Y] | [TIME]

Examples by phase:

  • DIVERGE: G | Collaboration | DIVERGE ###....... | L3 | 5/9 | 18m
  • CONVERGE: G | Collaboration | DIVERGE OK | CONVERGE ##.... | L1 | 22m
  • DEFINE: G | Collaboration | DIVERGE OK | CONVERGE OK | DEFINE ###.. | L2 | 35m
  • AGENT: G | Collaboration | AGENT | C2/5 | 45m
  • Warning: Y | Collaboration | DIVERGE ###....... | L3 | 5/9 | 32m!
  • Stopped: R | Collaboration | AGENT | JIDOKA STOP

Progress bar: 10 chars, # filled, . empty, proportional to completion.

Generate context-specific footer:

---
Next: [action prompt]

Dynamic prompts by context:

Context Footer Prompt
DIVERGE with DIG Provide OK/KO/DIG for: #4, #6, #7
Gate 1 passed All validated. Say "converge" to proceed.
Gate 2 Choose option: A / B / C
Gate 3 Approve phasing: OK / REORDER / SPLIT
AGENT Commit 2/5 in progress...
Jidoka stop Reply with A, B, C, or D
Autonomous Iteration 3/5...

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.
