description	Read-only operator surface for the current project's Lisa automation fleet. Resolves the expected recurring jobs from the same setup-automations contract Lisa uses to create them, inspects the active runtime scheduler (Codex automations or Claude /schedule), compares live command/cadence/queue arguments against the expected contract, and reports grouped fleet health such as healthy, missing, unsupported, drifted, stale, or failing with remediation guidance.

Automation Status: $ARGUMENTS

/lisa:automation-status is the operator-facing inspection surface for Lisa's unattended job fleet. It answers, for the current repo only, whether the recurring Lisa automations that should exist actually exist, still match Lisa's setup contract, and appear healthy based on the runtime metadata available.

This command is read-only in v1. It does not create, update, resume, rerun, pause, or delete automations. It complements /lisa:setup-automations, /lisa:tear-down-automations, /lisa:intake, /lisa:repair-intake, doctor, and monitor; it does not replace them.

Confirmation policy

Do not ask for confirmation once invoked. This skill inspects scheduler state and reports what it finds. There are no write-side effects in the v1 surface.

Scope

Inspect only the Lisa automation fleet for the current project:

• intake-repair
• intake-prd
• intake-tickets
• exploratory-bugs when the current stack supports exploratory-qa
• exploratory-prds

Resolve the expected project identifier, fleet naming prefix, queue arguments, cadence, and stack-support rules from the same contract used by setup-automations and tear-down-automations. Do not invent a second source of truth for fleet naming or queue resolution.

Runtime inspection

Branch on the active runtime and prefer the runtime's native automation listing surface:

• Codex: inspect Codex automations metadata first. Use backing-store files only as a fallback or to enrich timestamps when the runtime surface cannot provide enough status detail directly.
• Claude: inspect the /schedule listing surface and any exposed recency or failure metadata available there.
• Other runtimes: if no native recurring-task inspection exists, report that automation-status is unsupported in this runtime rather than guessing.

The report must stay repo-scoped: inspect only automations whose names belong to the current repo's Lisa fleet prefix, and do not absorb unrelated automations into the result.

What to report

For each expected automation, report:

1. Whether it exists.
2. Whether it is expected or intentionally unsupported.
3. The configured command and cadence Lisa expects.
4. Any detected drift in name, cadence, command shape, or queue arguments.
5. Any available recent-run health signal such as stale last-run timing or repeated failure status.
6. A concise remediation hint when attention is needed.

Emit an overall grouped fleet verdict such as HEALTHY, ATTENTION_NEEDED, or PARTIAL_SUPPORT, plus the runtime surface inspected.

Operator usage

Typical entrypoint:

/lisa:automation-status

Use this command when an operator needs to answer one of these questions for the current repo:

• "Did Lisa set up every automation this project expects?"
• "Is the scheduler still pointing at the right cadence and queue arguments?"
• "Is the queue idle because there is no work, or because the automation is stale or failing?"

The report should be terminal-first and immediately actionable: observable scheduler facts first, then the smallest useful remediation step.

Runtime differences

• Codex: prefer native automation metadata and use backing-store files only to fill gaps such as timestamps or failure recency. When Codex exposes health/memory signals, include them as observed facts rather than assumptions.
• Claude: use the /schedule listing as the primary runtime surface. Compare the live schedule name, cadence, and command shape against the Lisa contract, but degrade gracefully when /schedule does not expose equivalent recency or failure fields.
• Other runtimes: report automation-status as unsupported for that runtime instead of guessing from unrelated files or naming patterns.

Verdicts and remediation

• HEALTHY: every expected automation exists and the inspected runtime metadata shows no actionable drift, staleness, or failure.
• PARTIAL_SUPPORT: the fleet is otherwise healthy, but at least one exploratory job is intentionally unsupported for this stack or runtime.
• ATTENTION_NEEDED: at least one automation is missing, drifted, stale, or failing.

Status-specific remediation guidance:

• MISSING: tell the operator which job is absent and recommend rerunning /lisa:setup-automations or recreating the missing job with the expected cadence and command.
• DRIFTED: show the expected versus observed cadence/command mismatch and recommend aligning the scheduler entry with Lisa's current setup contract, usually by rerunning /lisa:setup-automations.
• STALE: explain that the job exists but has not run recently enough for its cadence. Recommend inspecting the runtime's recent-run history or failure logs before changing queue state.
• FAILING: surface the failure signal directly and recommend checking the latest runtime error plus the affected queue command (/lisa:intake, /lisa:repair-intake, or exploratory job) after the scheduler issue is resolved.
• UNSUPPORTED: explain why the job is intentionally absent and say that no remediation is required unless the project stack or runtime support changed.

Render the report in grouped sections using the shared scripts/automation-status-report.mjs contract:

Overall verdict: <VERDICT>
Counts: <n HEALTHY>, <n MISSING>, <n UNSUPPORTED>, <n DRIFTED>, <n STALE>, <n FAILING>
Runtime inspected: <runtime surface>
Generated at: <ISO timestamp>

1. <group title>
- <STATUS> <automation-id>: <summary>
  Expected: <cadence> -> <command>
  Observed: <what the runtime exposed>
  Remediation: <next step when attention is needed>

Keep observable runtime facts separate from remediation guidance so operators can distinguish drift, unsupported jobs, and actual failures quickly.

Rules

• Stay read-only. Never create, update, delete, enable, disable, or rerun automations from this skill.
• Reuse setup-automations contract logic for expected fleet resolution, cadence, queue arguments, naming, and stack-specific support checks.
• Distinguish unsupported from missing. An exploratory job omitted because the current stack lacks exploratory-qa is not a failure.
• If the runtime cannot expose a field such as last-run timestamp or failure state, say that explicitly instead of implying health.
• Keep the output operational and repo-scoped so operators can tell whether Lisa's unattended surfaces are present, current, and healthy right now.
