Display project status, active tracks, and next actions
Conductor Status
Display the current status of the Conductor project, including overall progress, active tracks, and next actions.
Use this skill when
Working on conductor status tasks or workflows
Needing guidance, best practices, or checklists for conductor status
Do not use this skill when
The task is unrelated to conductor status
You need a different domain or tool outside this scope
Instructions
Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.
Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes.
Provide actionable steps and verification.
If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md.
Pre-flight Checks
Verify Conductor is initialized:
Check conductor/product.md exists
Check conductor/tracks.md exists
If missing: Display error and suggest running /conductor:setup first
Check for any tracks:
Read conductor/tracks.md
If no tracks registered: Display setup complete message with suggestion to create first track
Data Collection
1. Project Information
Read conductor/product.md and extract:
Project name
Project description
2. Tracks Overview
Read conductor/tracks.md and parse:
Total tracks count
Completed tracks (marked [x])
In-progress tracks (marked [~])
Pending tracks (marked [ ])
3. Detailed Track Analysis
For each track in conductor/tracks/:
Read conductor/tracks/{trackId}/plan.md:
Count total tasks (lines matching - [x], - [~], - [ ] with Task prefix)
Count completed tasks ([x])
Count in-progress tasks ([~])
Count pending tasks ([ ])
Identify current phase (first phase with incomplete tasks)
Identify next pending task
Read conductor/tracks/{trackId}/metadata.json:
Track type (feature, bug, chore, refactor)
Created date
Last updated date
Status
Read conductor/tracks/{trackId}/spec.md:
Check for any noted blockers or dependencies
4. Blocker Detection
Scan for potential blockers:
Tasks marked with BLOCKED: prefix
Dependencies on incomplete tracks
Failed verification tasks

PROJECT STATUS: {Project Name}
================================================================================
Conductor is set up but no tracks have been created yet.
To get started:
/conductor:new-track "your feature description"
================================================================================
Conductor Not Initialized
ERROR: Conductor not initialized
Could not find conductor/product.md
Run /conductor:setup to initialize Conductor for this project.
Track Not Found (with argument)
ERROR: Track not found: {argument}
Available tracks:
- auth_20250115
- dashboard_20250112
- nav-fix_20250114
Usage: /conductor:status [track-id]
Calculation Logic
Task Counting
For each plan.md:
- Complete: count lines matching /^- \[x\] Task/
- In Progress: count lines matching /^- \[~\] Task/
- Pending: count lines matching /^- \[ \] Task/
- Total: Complete + In Progress + Pending
Phase Detection
Current phase = first phase header followed by any incomplete task ([ ] or [~])
Progress Bar
filled = floor((completed / total) * 20)
empty = 20 - filled
bar = "[" + "#".repeat(filled) + ".".repeat(empty) + "]"
Quick Mode
If invoked with --quick or -q:
{Project Name}: {completed}/{total} tasks ({percentage}%)
Active: {trackId} - Task {X.Y}
JSON Output
If invoked with --json:
{
"project": "{name}",
"timestamp": "ISO_TIMESTAMP",
"tracks": {
"total": N,
"completed": X,
"in_progress": Y,
"pending": Z
},
"tasks": {
"total": M,
"completed": A,
"in_progress": B,
"pending": C
},
"current": {
"track": "{trackId}",
"phase": N,
"task": "{X.Y}"

Limitations
Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.don't have the plugin yet? install it then click "run inline in claude" again.
