Status

Overview

Provide a concise, human-friendly summary of project status or a specific bead. When no bead id is provided, run

waif

CLI tool to summarize recent work and current work in progress. When a bead id is provided, run

bd show <bead-id> --json

and provide a detailed explanation of that bead (title, status, assignee, description, blockers, and related links).

When To Use

• User asks general project status (e.g., "What is the current status?", "Status of the project?", "audit the project", "audit").
• User asks about a specific bead id (e.g., "What is the status of bd-123?", "audit bd-123").

Behavior

1. Detect whether the user provided a bead id in the request.
2. If no bead id is provided:
   • Run

     waif in-progress --json

     to fetch in-progress work.
   • Parse the returned JSON and produce a short summary including:
     • Number of in-progress beads
     • Highest-priority items, a short description, and their assignees
     • Any items in a blocked state or missing assignees
     • A one-line suggestion for next action (e.g., "Review bd-123 assigned to @alice")
     • Run

       waif recent --json

       to fetch recently modified beads.
     • Run

       bd show <bead-id> --json

       for the last 3 completed beads to get more information.
     • Parse and summarize the last 3 completed beads with titles, most recent comments and assignees.
3. If a bead id is provided:
   • Run

     bd show <bead-id> --json

     to fetch bead details.
   • Parse and present: title, status, assignee, priority, description, blockers, dependencies, comments count, and relevant links.
4. Handle errors gracefully: if

   waif

   or

   bd

   are not available or return invalid JSON, present a helpful error and possible remediation steps.

Notes

• Keep the output concise and actionable for quick human consumption.
