{{CMD:status}} — state snapshot

A read-only summary of `.codearbiter/` state. No skill is routed to; no file is modified.

Flow

The orchestrator reads and presents:

1. **Stage** — the `stage:` maturity value from `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/CONTEXT.md` frontmatter. 2. **Pipelines** — every slug in `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/specs/` and `plans/`, with how far each got: spec awaiting approval, spec approved / no plan, plan in progress (`ACCEPTED` count vs. total from the plan's status column), or complete. An interrupted pipeline is resumable via `{{CMD:feature}}` — say so on its line. 3. **Open tasks** — the in-flight count from `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/open-tasks.md` (top-level `- ` bullets excluding done `- [x]`; the same `_taskboardlib` count the {{IF:claude}}statusline and {{END}}SessionStart hook use{{IF:claude}}{{ELSE}}s{{END}}). 4. **Open questions** — the count of unresolved `[CONFIRM-NN]` placeholders in `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/open-questions.md`. 5. **Overrides since last checkpoint** — entries in `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/overrides.log` newer than the marker in `{{PROJECT_DIR}}/.codearbiter/last-checkpoint`. 6. **Current branch** — from git.

Output

## Project status — YYYY-MM-DD

Stage:            N
Branch:           <current branch>
Pipelines:
  <slug>          plan 3/7 ACCEPTED — resume with {{CMD:feature}} "<slug>"
  <slug>          spec approved, no plan
Open tasks:       N
Open questions:   N ([CONFIRM-NN] unresolved)
Overrides since last checkpoint: N

No specs and no plans → `Pipelines: none`.

If `[CONFIRM-NN]` placeholders are open, surface them — do not resolve them here.
