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.

Pre-flight Checks

  1. Verify Conductor is initialized:

    • Check conductor/product.md exists
    • Check conductor/tracks.md exists
    • If missing: Display error and suggest running /conductor:setup first
  2. 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

FAQ

What are 'tracks'?

'Tracks' are like specific steps or parts of the project that are being worked on.

How does the tool know what's blocking the project?

It looks for tasks marked as 'blocked' or for dependencies on other project parts that haven't been completed yet.

Can I use this for any project?

No, this tool is specific to projects using the 'Conductor' methodology and that have the status files correctly configured.
