/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:review to promote or clean up.

• Red (> 90%): Near capacity. Auto-memory may start dropping older entries. Run /si:review now.

Tips

• Run /si:status --brief as a quick check anytime

• If capacity is yellow+, run /si:review to 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
