What is WS QuickStatus?

WS QuickStatus is a lightweight workspace health-check skill for Openclaw Skills that helps developers and AI agents orient themselves before starting work or verify results before wrapping up. It combines common shell checks into one concise, plain-text overview.

The skill inspects top-level workspace contents, reports concise Git status when available, identifies the three most recent Markdown files in the memory directory, and checks the deliverable_output directory for generated artifacts. It requires no external services.

WS QuickStatus Use Cases

  • Orient yourself quickly when beginning a new development or automation task.
  • Review workspace contents before asking an AI agent to modify files.
  • Check for uncommitted Git changes before completing or handing off work.
  • Confirm that a requested deliverable was written to deliverable_output/.
  • Inspect the latest memory notes to recover recent task context.
  • Run a consistent workspace review as part of an Openclaw Skills workflow.

How WS QuickStatus Works

  1. Change into the target workspace directory.
  2. List all top-level files and directories with ls -la.
  3. Run git status -s when the workspace is a Git repository; otherwise report that no Git repository is available.
  4. Sort Markdown files in memory/ by modification time and display the three most recent entries.
  5. Inspect deliverable_output/ and list its contents when the directory exists.
  6. Print the combined results as a plain-text summary on standard output.

WS QuickStatus Setup

WS QuickStatus does not require package installation, API credentials, or external services. Use a shell with access to the workspace and standard Unix commands such as cd, ls, git, and head.

Run the health check from the workspace root:

cd <workspace>
echo "== top level ==" && ls -la
echo "== git ==" && git status -s 2>/dev/null || echo "no git repo"
echo "== recent memory ==" && ls -t memory/*.md 2>/dev/null | head -3
echo "== deliverables ==" && ls -la deliverable_output/ 2>/dev/null || echo "no deliverable_output"

Replace <workspace> with the path to the project or agent workspace. Missing Git, memory, or deliverable directories are handled as informational conditions rather than requiring external configuration.

WS QuickStatus Data Schema & Taxonomy

The skill produces a plain-text stdout report rather than persistent structured data.

Section Source Reported information
Top level Workspace root Full listing of top-level files and directories from ls -la
Git Repository metadata, if present Short-form working-tree status from git status -s
Recent memory memory/*.md Up to three Markdown files sorted by modification time
Deliverables deliverable_output/, if present Directory listing of generated outputs

Key workspace paths include:

  • memory/ for recent Markdown context notes.
  • deliverable_output/ for task outputs and handoff artifacts.
  • The workspace root for project files and repository contents.

The skill also declares the Clawdbot metadata emoji 🟢. No files are generated or modified by the check.

WS QuickStatus Advanced Features

  • Single-pass visibility across workspace contents, Git changes, memory notes, and deliverables.
  • Repeatable pre-task and post-task validation for consistent Openclaw Skills workflows.
  • Graceful handling of missing Git repositories and absent workspace directories.
  • Lightweight shell-based execution with no network calls, credentials, or external dependencies.
  • Plain-text stdout output that is easy to read manually or include in larger automation pipelines.
  • Focused recent-memory discovery by limiting results to the three newest Markdown notes.
