description: Use when the user asks where things stand, what's in progress, what's landed, or "where was I" in a YOLO repo. Derives every feature's status from git and the briefs; nothing is read from a stored status field.

yolo-status

Report every feature's state by deriving it from git, exactly per `../../yolo/conventions.md` *Deriving status*. There is no stored status. Don't look for one.

Procedure

1. Resolve `base_branch` (config, else the detection rule). Guard refs with `git rev-parse --verify -q`; if base doesn't resolve, report a config error and stop. 2. Collect evidence once, not per feature:

  • subjects of merges made on base: `git log --first-parent <base> --merges --format=%s`
  • first-parent line of base: `git rev-list --first-parent <base>`
  • `YOLO-Feature` trailers on base, and `yolo/done/*` tags
  • live branches: `git for-each-ref --format='%(refname:short)' refs/heads/feature/`

3. For each `workspace/features/*/brief.md` (slug = folder name), classify in order: cancelled → landed → verified → in-progress → planned. Use the slug-boundary match for merge subjects so `csv` never matches `csv-export`. 4. Add an **untracked-branch** row for every `feature/<slug>` with no brief. 5. For `planned`/`in-progress` rows whose brief has `depends_on`, mark any dependency that hasn't landed as `blocked-by: <slug>`. 6. Print a compact table: slug · status · milestone · blocked-by · last commit date on the branch (in-progress only). Group by `milestone` when set. End with one line naming the most recently touched in-progress branch.

Constraints

  • Read-only. Compute, never store.

Ships withyolo

A thin state layer for agent-driven feature work. A feature is a short brief plus a git branch, and its status is derived from git every time you ask. Nothing is stored, so nothing drifts. YOLO doesn't tell your agent how to plan, build or review.
