What it does

Status is an agent skill from NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit. Display the current state of the FPF knowledge base

Its SKILL.md is about 740 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Knowledge Management, covering Knowledge bases. The repository describes itself as: Hand-crafted Claude Code Skills focused on improving agent results quality. Compatible with OpenCode, Cursor, Antigravity, Gemini CLI, and others. Includes CodeRabbit open-source… The licence is GPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Knowledge bases

Example prompts

  • “/status”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Check Directory Structure: Verify .fpf/ exists and contains required subdirectories.
  2. Count Hypotheses: List files in each knowledge layer
  3. Check Evidence Freshness: Scan .fpf/evidence/ for expired evidence.
  4. Count Decisions: List files in .fpf/decisions/.
  5. Report to user.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 23e2428. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Status loads about 735 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 15 tokens; SKILL.md has 181 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~15
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~735

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Status Check

Display the current state of the FPF knowledge base.

Action (Run-Time)

  1. Check Directory Structure: Verify .fpf/ exists and contains required subdirectories.
  2. Count Hypotheses: List files in each knowledge layer:
    • .fpf/knowledge/L0/ (Proposed)
    • .fpf/knowledge/L1/ (Verified)
    • .fpf/knowledge/L2/ (Validated)
    • .fpf/knowledge/invalid/ (Rejected)
  3. Check Evidence Freshness: Scan .fpf/evidence/ for expired evidence.
  4. Count Decisions: List files in .fpf/decisions/.
  5. Report to user.

Status Report Format

markdown
## FPF Status

### Directory Structure
- [x] .fpf/ exists
- [x] knowledge/L0/ exists
- [x] knowledge/L1/ exists
- [x] knowledge/L2/ exists
- [x] evidence/ exists
- [x] decisions/ exists

### Current Phase
Based on hypothesis distribution: ABDUCTION | DEDUCTION | INDUCTION | DECISION | IDLE

### Hypothesis Counts

| Layer | Count | Status |
|-------|-------|--------|
| L0 (Proposed) | 3 | Awaiting verification |
| L1 (Verified) | 2 | Awaiting validation |
| L2 (Validated) | 1 | Ready for decision |
| Invalid | 1 | Rejected |

### Evidence Status

| Total | Fresh | Stale | Expired |
|-------|-------|-------|---------|
| 5 | 3 | 1 | 1 |

### Warnings

- 1 evidence file is EXPIRED: ev-benchmark-old-2024-06-15
- Consider running `/fpf:decay` to review stale evidence

### Recent Decisions

| DRR | Date | Winner |
|-----|------|--------|
| DRR-2025-01-15-use-redis | 2025-01-15 | redis-caching |

Phase Detection Logic

Determine current phase by examining the knowledge base state:

ConditionPhaseNext Step
No .fpf/ directoryNOT INITIALIZEDRun /fpf:propose-hypotheses
L0 > 0, L1 = 0, L2 = 0ABDUCTIONContinue with verification
L1 > 0, L2 = 0DEDUCTIONContinue with validation
L2 > 0, no recent DRRINDUCTIONContinue with audit and decision
Recent DRR existsDECISION COMPLETEReview decision
All emptyIDLERun /fpf:propose-hypotheses

Evidence Freshness Check

For each evidence file in .fpf/evidence/:

  1. Read the valid_until field from frontmatter
  2. Compare with current date
  3. Classify:
    • Fresh: valid_until > today + 30 days
    • Stale: valid_until > today but < today + 30 days
    • Expired: valid_until < today

If any evidence is stale or expired, warn the user and suggest /fpf:decay.

Example Output

## FPF Status

### Current Phase: DEDUCTION

You have 3 hypotheses in L0 awaiting verification.
Next step: Continue the FPF workflow to process L0 hypotheses.

### Hypothesis Counts

| Layer | Count |
|-------|-------|
| L0 | 3 |
| L1 | 0 |
| L2 | 0 |
| Invalid | 0 |

### Evidence Status

No evidence files yet (hypotheses not validated).

### No Warnings

All systems nominal.
