status

Invoke the status command in your project directory. It detects the project name from the current folder, reads the session-state file under ~/.circle/projects, and shows the current phase, completed steps, and suggested next action.

It scans the current directory for marker files: package.json, go.mod, or Cargo.toml indicate software; business-plan.md or strategy.md indicate business; goals.md or a habits folder indicate personal. If nothing matches, it defaults to general.

The detailed view lists generated artifacts per role directory, active workflow details, TDD configuration from config.yaml, and integration availability for Linear, Notion, and no-mistakes, plus the local Circle plugin version.

This happens when no session-state.json exists under ~/.circle/projects for your project name, meaning no Circle workflow has run yet. Run circle:init or circle:greenfield to initialize the project and start tracking state.

No. The status view only reports whether integrations like Linear or Notion are connected, available, or unavailable. Connecting or installing integrations requires explicit user confirmation and is never done automatically.
