Show the current state of the workflow for this project.

Step 0: Run Migrations

This step is mandatory. You must complete it before proceeding.

Invoke the /migrate skill and assess its output.

If files were updated: STOP and wait for the user to review the changes (e.g., via git diff) and confirm before proceeding to Step 1. Do not continue automatically.

If no updates needed: Proceed to Step 1.

Step 1: Scan Directories

Check for files in each workflow directory:

docs/workflow/research/
docs/workflow/discussion/
docs/workflow/specification/
docs/workflow/planning/

Step 2: Present Status

Research is project-wide exploration. From discussion onwards, work is organised by topic - different topics may be at different stages.

Show a summary like this:

## Workflow Status

**Research:** 2 files (exploration.md, market-analysis.md)

**Topics:**

| Topic        | Discussion | Spec | Plan | Implemented |
|--------------|------------|------|------|-------------|
| auth-system  | ✓          | ✓    | ✓    | in progress |
| payment-flow | ✓          | ✓    | -    | -           |
| notifications| ✓          | -    | -    | -           |

Adapt based on what exists:

• If a directory is empty or missing, show "Not started"
• For planning, note the output format if specified in frontmatter
• Match topics across phases by filename

Step 3: Suggest Next Steps

Based on what exists, offer relevant options. Don't assume linear progression - topics may have dependencies on each other.

If nothing exists:

• "Start with /start-research to explore ideas, or /start-discussion if you already know what you're building."

If topics exist at various stages, summarise options without being prescriptive:

• Topics in discussion can move to specification
• Topics with specs can move to planning
• Topics with plans can move to implementation
• Completed implementations can be reviewed

Example: "auth-system has a plan ready. payment-flow needs a spec before planning. You might want to complete planning for related topics before implementing if there are dependencies."

Keep suggestions brief - the user knows their project's dependencies better than we do.

Step 4: Mention Plan Viewing

If planning files exist, let the user know they can view plan details:

To view a plan's tasks and progress, use /view-plan

Notes

• Keep output concise - this is a quick status check
• Use tables for scannable information
