What problem does it solve?
Provide a concise, human-readable snapshot of a Ratchet project's epic, milestones, issues, debates, and phase progress so teams can quickly understand current work, blockers, and debate activity without running the full pipeline. The Skill surfaces completed, in-progress, pending, and failed/blocked phases and highlights missing or uninitialized state with clear fallback messages.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Workspace and Milestone Overviews: Summarizes epic progress, workspace counts, and per-milestone status across workspaces.
- Issue and Phase Drilldowns: Shows issue-level phase progress (plan, test, build, review, harden) and adapts the display to the project's workflow preset.
- Debate & Guard Visibility: Counts debates, highlights consensus/escalation state, and lists guards and last results to help triage blockers.
- Robust Fallbacks: Detects missing .ratchet directories or plan.yaml and prompts users with clear next steps to initialize or run the system.
- Use Case: A release manager uses this Skill to check which milestones are blocked, which issues are in-progress, and whether any debates or guard failures need human escalation before the next sprint.
Quick Start
Run /ratchet:status to display the current workspace's milestone and phase progress and identify active debates and missing plan files.
