SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Query Maestro/BAR dependency flow data via the mstro CLI tool in bash. USE FOR: subscription health checks, build flow tracing, codeflow status, channel discovery, triggering subscription updates — when MCP tools aren't loaded or when scripting with JSON output and jq. Also use when investigating "is this subscription stale", "what's the latest build", "check backflow status". DO NOT USE FOR: tasks where maestro MCP tools are already available in context (prefer flow-analysis or flow-tracing skills when MCP server is loaded).

  • Fetch Maestro/BAR flow data via the mstro CLI for subscription health, builds, and codeflow status.
  • Produce structured JSON output suitable for jq pipelines and automation.
  • Discover commands progressively with mstro guide and streamlined scripting in Bash.
