Status
Memory health dashboard showing line counts, topic files, capacity, stale entries, and recommendations.
$ npx promptcreek add statusAuto-detects your installed agents and installs the skill to each one.
What This Skill Does
This skill provides a memory health dashboard for a project, offering a quick overview of the memory state across different memory systems. It reports on the number of lines in memory files, topic files, and identifies stale entries. It's helpful for developers to monitor and maintain the health of their project's memory.
When to Use
- Check overall memory health.
- Identify stale file references.
- Monitor memory capacity.
- Detect duplicate entries.
- Get a brief memory summary.
- Troubleshoot memory issues.
Key Features
Installation
$ npx promptcreek add statusAuto-detects your installed agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, etc.) and installs the skill to each one.

/si:status — Memory Health Dashboard
Quick overview of your project's memory state across all memory systems.
Usage
/si:status # Full dashboard
/si:status --brief # One-line summary
What It Reports
Step 1: Locate all memory files
# Auto-memory directory
MEMORY_DIR="$HOME/.claude/projects/$(pwd | sed 's|/|%2F|g; s|%2F|/|; s|^/||')/memory"
Count lines in MEMORY.md
wc -l "$MEMORY_DIR/MEMORY.md" 2>/dev/null || echo "0"
List topic files
ls "$MEMORY_DIR/"*.md 2>/dev/null | grep -v MEMORY.md
CLAUDE.md
wc -l ./CLAUDE.md 2>/dev/null || echo "0"
wc -l ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md 2>/dev/null || echo "0"
Rules directory
ls .claude/rules/*.md 2>/dev/null | wc -l
Step 2: Analyze capacity
| Metric | Healthy | Warning | Critical |
|--------|---------|---------|----------|
| MEMORY.md lines | < 120 | 120-180 | > 180 |
| CLAUDE.md lines | < 150 | 150-200 | > 200 |
| Topic files | 0-3 | 4-6 | > 6 |
| Stale entries | 0 | 1-3 | > 3 |
Step 3: Quick stale check
For each MEMORY.md entry that references a file path:
# Verify referenced files still exist
grep -oE '[a-zA-Z0-9_/.-]+\.(ts|js|py|md|json|yaml|yml)' "$MEMORY_DIR/MEMORY.md" | while read f; do
[ ! -f "$f" ] && echo "STALE: $f"
done
Step 4: Output
📊 Memory Status
Auto-Memory (MEMORY.md):
Lines: {{n}}/200 ({{bar}}) {{emoji}}
Topic files: {{count}} ({{names}})
Last updated: {{date}}
Project Rules:
CLAUDE.md: {{n}} lines
Rules: {{count}} files in .claude/rules/
User global: {{n}} lines (~/.claude/CLAUDE.md)
Health:
Capacity: {{healthy/warning/critical}}
Stale refs: {{count}} (files no longer exist)
Duplicates: {{count}} (entries repeated across files)
{{if recommendations}}
💡 Recommendations:
- {{recommendation}}
{{endif}}
Brief mode
/si:status --brief
Output: 📊 Memory: {{n}}/200 lines | {{count}} rules | {{status_emoji}} {{status_word}}
Interpretation
- Green (< 60%): Plenty of room. Auto-memory is working well.
- Yellow (60-90%): Getting full. Consider running
/si:reviewto promote or clean up. - Red (> 90%): Near capacity. Auto-memory may start dropping older entries. Run
/si:reviewnow.
Tips
- Run
/si:status --briefas a quick check anytime - If capacity is yellow+, run
/si:reviewto identify promotion candidates - Stale entries waste space — delete references to files that no longer exist
- Topic files are fine — Claude creates them to keep MEMORY.md under 200 lines
