Code Forge — Status

⚡ Execution Entry Point

@../shared/execution-entrypoint.md

For this skill: start at the first executable step. If you catch yourself about to say "falling back to manual status check", STOP and go to the indicated step.

---

Display a dashboard of all features or detailed progress for a specific feature.

When to Use

• Want to see all features and their progress
• Want to check status of a specific feature
• Need to regenerate the project-level overview

Examples

/code-forge:status                  # Show project dashboard
/code-forge:status user-auth        # Show detail for one feature

Workflow

Load Config → Scan Features → Display Dashboard or Detail → Update Overview

Detailed Steps

@../shared/configuration.md

Step 1: Determine Mode

Based on arguments:

• No argument → Global Dashboard (Step 2)
• Feature name provided → Feature Detail (Step 3)

---

Step 2: Global Dashboard

2.0 Render the dashboard (fast path)

Run the status renderer — it scans both plan locations, recomputes progress from each state.json, and prints the ready-to-display table so the raw state files never enter context. Resolve <cf_scripts> once (see Locating the script layer in the configuration step), then:

python3 "<cf_scripts>/cf-status.py" [--output-dir "<output_dir>"]

Print its output as the dashboard, then continue to 2.3 (update overview) and 2.4 (handle selection). If python3 is unavailable or the script is missing, build the table by hand using 2.1–2.2 below.

2.1 Scan for Features

1. Resolve the output directory: <base_dir>/<output_dir>/
2. Search for all state.json files in both locations:
   • <output_dir>/*/state.json (standard plans)
   • .code-forge/tmp/*/state.json (temporary plans created with --tmp)
3. For each state.json, extract: feature, status, progress.*, metadata.source_doc, updated
4. Mark features from .code-forge/tmp/ with [tmp] suffix in display

2.2 Display Feature Dashboard

Features found: Show table with #, Feature, Progress, Status, Last Updated.

code-forge — Feature Dashboard

  #  | Feature        | Progress   | Status      | Last Updated
  1  | user-auth      | 3/5 (60%)  | in_progress | 2026-02-14
  2  | file-upload    | 0/3 (0%)   | pending     | 2026-02-13
  3  | notifications  | 4/4 (100%) | completed   | 2026-02-12

Commands:
  /code-forge:plan @doc.md          Create new plan from document
  /code-forge:plan "requirement"    Create new plan from prompt
  /code-forge:impl <feature>        Execute tasks for a feature
  /code-forge:status <feature>      View feature detail
  /code-forge:fix "description"  Debug a bug
  /code-forge:review <feature>      Review completed feature

Offer actions via AskUserQuestion:

• Enter a feature name to view its detail
• Start a new plan
• Exit

No features found: Show empty state with instructions:

• How to create a feature document at {base_dir}/{input_dir}/{feature-name}.md
• How to run /code-forge:plan @path/to/feature.md or /code-forge:plan "requirement text"

2.3 Update Project-Level Overview

After scanning, regenerate {output_dir}/overview.md using Step 4 logic.

2.4 Handle User Selection

• Feature name selected → show Feature Detail (Step 3)
• "New plan" → suggest /code-forge:plan command
• "Exit" → end

Step 3: Feature Detail

3.1 Locate Feature

Fast path: python3 "<cf_scripts>/cf-status.py" <feature_name> locates the feature (output dir, then .code-forge/tmp/), recomputes progress, and prints the detail table directly — use it and skip to Step 4. On a missing feature it exits non-zero with an error listing where it looked. Fall back to the manual steps below if python3 is unavailable.

1. Look for {output_dir}/{feature_name}/state.json
2. If not found, also check .code-forge/tmp/{feature_name}/state.json
3. If still not found: show error, list available features

3.2 Display Feature Detail

Read state.json and display:

code-forge — Feature: user-auth

Status: in_progress
