Show the current context status: files, token budget, tasks,
and recent activity.
When to Use
- At session start to orient before doing work
- When confused about what is being worked on or what context
exists
- To check token usage and context health
- When the user asks "what's the state of the project?"
When NOT to Use
- When you already loaded context via
/ctx-agent in this
session (status is a subset of what agent provides)
- Repeatedly within the same session without changes in between
Usage Examples
/ctx-status
The slash command takes no arguments. For verbose or JSON output, ask the
agent to run ctx status --verbose or ctx status --json directly.
