blueprint-status

Display the current blueprint configuration status with three-layer architecture breakdown.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when...	Use blueprint-execute instead when...
You want a read-only status report (PRD/ADR/PRP counts, traceability)	You want auto-detection that takes the next action, not just reports
You want the three-layer architecture breakdown	Use blueprint-feature-tracker-status instead for FR/phase progress
You want to audit orphan docs and stale generated content	Use blueprint-sync instead for an actionable drift reconcile
You run with --report-only for non-interactive auditing	Use blueprint-upgrade instead when you've already spotted an upgrade

Flags

Flag	Description
--report-only	Display status report and exit without prompting for next action

Steps

1. Check if blueprint is initialized:

   • Look for docs/blueprint/manifest.json
   • If not found, report:

     Blueprint not initialized in this project.
     Run `/blueprint:init` to get started.
     

2. Read manifest and gather information:

   • Parse manifest.json for version and configuration
   • Parse id_registry for traceability metrics
   • Count PRDs in docs/prds/
   • Count ADRs in docs/adrs/
   • Count PRPs in docs/prps/
   • For ADRs, also count:
     • With domain tags (grep -l "^domain:" docs/adrs/*.md | wc -l)
     • With relationship declarations (supersedes, extends, related)
     • By status (Accepted, Superseded, Deprecated)
   • Count work-orders (pending, completed, archived)
   • Resolve the configured rules path: jq -r '.structure.generated_rules_path // ".claude/rules/"' docs/blueprint/manifest.json
   • Count generated rules in the configured path (default .claude/rules/)
   • Count custom skills in .claude/skills/
   • Count custom commands in .claude/commands/
   • Check for .claude/rules/ directory
   • Check for CLAUDE.md file
   • Check for docs/blueprint/feature-tracker.json
   • If feature tracker exists, read statistics and last_updated
   • Read task_registry from manifest (if present)
   • For each task, calculate schedule status:
     • ok: Not yet due based on schedule
     • due: Due for execution based on schedule
     • overdue: Past due by more than 1 schedule period (e.g., daily task not run in 2+ days)
     • disabled: enabled: false
     • never: last_completed_at is null (never tracked)

3. Check for upgrade availability:

   • Compare format_version in manifest with current plugin version
   • Current format version: 3.3.0
   • If manifest version < current → upgrade available

3a. Monorepo portfolio refresh (v3.3.0+):

• If workspaces.role == "root", invoke /blueprint:workspace-scan to refresh workspaces.children and cached stats before rendering. Skip if scanned within the last hour (last_scanned_at).
• If workspaces.role == "child", resolve workspaces.root_relative_path and mention the parent in the status report but do NOT trigger a scan.

4. Check generated content status:

   • For each generated rule in manifest:
     • Hash current file content
     • Compare with stored content_hash
     • Status: current (unchanged), modified (user edited), stale (source PRDs changed)

5. Display status report:

6. Additional checks:

   • Warn if any tasks are overdue (e.g., "3 maintenance tasks overdue - run /blueprint:execute to catch up")
   • Warn if feature-tracker.json is stale (> 1 day since last update)
   • Warn if PRDs exist but no generated rules
   • Warn if modular rules enabled but .claude/rules/ is empty
   • Warn if generated content is modified or stale
   • Warn if feature-tracker.json is older than 7 days (needs sync)
   • Warn if TODO.md has been modified since last sync
   • Warn if ADRs have potential issues:
     • Multiple "Accepted" ADRs in same domain (potential conflict)
     • ADRs without domain tags (harder to detect conflicts)
     • Missing bidirectional links (e.g., supersedes without corresponding superseded_by)
   • Traceability checks:
     • Warn if documents exist without IDs (run /blueprint:sync-ids)
     • Warn if orphan documents exist (docs without GitHub issues)
     • Warn if orphan issues exist (GitHub issues without linked docs)
     • Warn if broken links detected (referenced docs/issues don't exist)

7. If --report-only: Output the status report from Steps 5-6 and exit. Skip the interactive prompt below.

8. Prompt for next action (use AskUserQuestion):

   Build options dynamically based on state:

   • If upgrade available → Include "Upgrade to v{latest}"
   • If modified content → Include "Sync generated content"
   • If stale content → Include "Regenerate skills"
   • If PRDs exist but no generated skills → Include "Generate skills from PRDs"

   • If CLAUDE.md stale → Include "Update CLAUDE.md"
   • If feature tracker exists but stale → Include "Sync feature tracker"
   • If ADRs have potential issues → Include "Validate ADRs"
   • If documents without IDs → Include "Sync document IDs"
   • If orphan documents/issues → Include "Link documents to GitHub"
   • If overdue tasks exist → Include "Run overdue maintenance tasks"
   • Always include "Continue development" and "I'm done"

   question: "What would you like to do?"
   options:
     # Dynamic - include based on state detected above
