### Mode: status Requires: ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/shared/report-footer.md Read-only. The **single answer to "versions + deployment + settings + bridges"** across the whole family — `tools/family-registry.mjs` aggregates every member's `capability.json` and surveys the project. It **never writes, never commits, and never runs a subscription CLI**. Run `node ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/tools/family-registry.mjs --json [--dir ]` and render it **compact**, in the user's conversational language — **never paste the JSON or any internal field name** (no-leak rule). Map the **`installed[].state`** token via the value→plain-language map under *The version block + welcome mat* in `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/shared/report-footer.md` (the `visibility` and wrapper states have their own phrasings, below). Present, each area on its own line(s), routing detail to its domain mode: 1. **Versions — a status-only render from `installed[]` + `deploymentHead`** (this is **NOT** the shared notes-based version block — see the separation note below): the **`docs/ai` structure version** (named as such, never "lineage head"), then each member by its `display` showing its `version` (or, when there is no version, the plain phrase for its `state`, mapped above), plus the two-axes disambiguation. **Freshness comes from `installed[].refresh`, not from `notes`:** for each member whose **`refresh.behind`** is `true`, show a **localized "needs refresh"** label and the **verbatim `refresh.recommend`** command **exactly once** (the command/package name stays source-language; **do not also paste the English `notes` caveats** — `refresh.recommend` is the single source of the recovery step, so the command is never duplicated on this surface). A member whose **`refresh.freshness`** is **`unknown`** is surfaced too — a localized *"couldn't be checked"* label; it is **never counted as current and never as behind** (its `notes` caveat carries the detail on the notes-based surfaces; here the label is enough). Lead with a one-line **headline count** derived from `installed[].state` + `refresh.behind` + `refresh.freshness` (e.g. *"5 members installed · 1 needs a refresh · 1 couldn't be checked"* — omit a zero count). > **Status reads `refresh`; the shared version block + the bootstrap/upgrade footers stay `notes`-based (unchanged this release).** `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/modes/status.md` has its OWN status-only render (above), keyed on `installed[].refresh.behind` / `refresh.recommend`. The shared **version block** (under *The version block + welcome mat* in `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/shared/report-footer.md`) and the bootstrap (step 11) + every upgrade (steps 4 / 8) report footer still consume `installed[].notes` verbatim — that wiring is deliberately **untouched** here (their migration onto `refresh` is deferred). Do not rewrite those footers onto `refresh`. 2. **Deployment (`--dir`)** (from `project`): whether `docs/ai/` is deployed + the deploy stamps by `display`; and **visibility** — render `project.visibility.state` in **user-safe words only**: *visible (tracked)* / *hidden (git-ignored, local-only)* / *unclear (uncommitted or partially set up)* — **never** the words "hidden fence" or any marker term. A `visibility.error` → surface it plainly. When `project.adrLayout` is **`old`** or **`old-unrotated`**, add a plain-language note that the project still uses an **older ADR layout** and should run the opt-in **`/agent-workflow-kit migrate-adr-store`** to move to the one-file-per-ADR store (preview first; it never commits) — the note is the SAME for both, they differ only in how the older layout was detected (`old` = a retired archive file is still on disk; `old-unrotated` = the project's deployed rotation script predates the store); `migrated` / `none` need no note. 3. **Settings (`--dir`, one line each)** (from `project.settings`): - **recipes** — the effective recipe per slot (detail → `/agent-workflow-kit procedures` / `recipes`); a `recipes.detectError` → say the backends couldn't be checked, so recipes floored at solo. - **attribution** — `includeCoAuthoredBy` effective; call out a **local override** only when `local` is non-null **and** differs from `project` (a `null` `local` means the key is absent there, so the project value stands — that is not an override). - **velocity** — the effective `permissions.defaultMode` + whether an allowlist is seeded (detail → `/agent-workflow-kit velocity`). - **subagents** — how many of the kit's read-only subagent vehicles are placed (`agents.placed` of `agents.bundled`; zero placed → the optional `/agent-workflow-kit agents` opt-in). None of them grants a shell; three ride a cheap model for mechanical work and one is a read-only review lens. - **gate hook** — wired / hook file placed / declaration present, plus **`hook.declaredGates`** (0 = absent or an empty list; `null` = present but unreadable → say *couldn't be counted*, never a number; detail → `/agent-workflow-kit hook` and the gates guide). - **bridge knobs** — a settings entry carrying **`retired`** is a key that is CONFIGURED but arms nothing: say so plainly (the reason is in the field) and point at `bridge-settings --unset --apply` to clear it. Never render a retired key as an active setting. - Any area's **`error`** field → surface it **loudly** in plain language; the rest of `status` still renders (never a crash). 4. **Bridges (host, one line)** (from `bridges[]`): per bridge — readiness + wrapper PATH-presence; render each wrapper's `state` as *on PATH* (`present`) / *not on PATH* (`missing`) / *couldn't check* (`unknown`) (detail → `/agent-workflow-kit backends` / `setup`). **No default-model claim.** "credentials present" means a marker file exists, not a live login. Restate the **two-axes honesty** — an installed *package* version is not the project's **`docs/ai` structure version** (see *Version disclosure* in `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/shared/report-footer.md`); the installed version is whatever is on disk under `~/.claude/skills/…`, so a stale install shows its real (older) version, honestly. A host that can't run the helper → **skip with the concrete reason** (the helper-failure contract), never silently. **Invariants:** read-only · never writes · never commits · never runs a subscription CLI · plain language only, no leaked internal terms.
