- The repository was last updated 5 days ago, so ws is actively maintained.
- Our last check on 2026-10-20 found the source still online.

npx skills add MikahNiehaus/ClaudeBoost. The install tabs above show the steps for each supported agent. - Which AI agents does ws work with?
- It is written for Claude Code, as a Claude Commands file. Other agents that read the same format can often use it too.
- Is ws safe to use?
- Our scan of the whole file found no instruction hijacking, hidden characters, credential access, data exfiltration or destructive commands. An AI review of the same text found nothing harmful. It declares no license and scores 80/100 on trust signals. Skills are instructions an agent will follow, so read the file before installing it and do not approve commands you do not understand.

/ws — Workspace Status
Arguments: $ARGUMENTS
Before running, interpret the user's intent:
- If
$ARGUMENTSis empty or "list" → list mode (no arg to script) - If
$ARGUMENTSisoff→ passoffto clear the active workspace - If
$ARGUMENTSlooks like a workspace ID or partial name (including natural language, slang, or phonetic variants) → extract the key search term and pass that single word/phrase as the argument
For natural language like "set ws for the dispute one" or "switch to disputes", extract the meaningful identifier ("disputes") and pass only that to the script.
Phonetic and slang variants must be normalized before passing to the script. Common examples:
- "pie hole" → "pihole" (Pi-hole, the DNS blocker)
- "pi hole" → "pihole"
- "rust desk" → "rustdesk"
- "space desk" → "spacedesk"
When in doubt, collapse multi-word phrases that sound like a single compound tool or project name into one word.
Run the workspace status script:
"${CLAUDEBOOST_PYTHON}" "${CLAUDEBOOST_HOME}/scripts/workspace-status.py" <extracted-id-or-empty>
Display the output to the user exactly as printed.
Switching: The script accepts exact workspace IDs, partial names (fuzzy match), or
local folder names from ./workspace/ in the current directory. If the match is
ambiguous, it lists what matched. Pass off to clear the active workspace.
After a successful switch: If the script output says "Switched to:", read the
context.md file for that workspace and summarize the current status and next step
for the user. The path is either:
./workspace/<workspace-id>/context.md(project-local), or${CLAUDEBOOST_HOME}/workspace/<workspace-id>/context.md(global)
Check the project-local path first. If neither exists, just tell the user no context file was found yet.
Listing: When no argument is given, shows all workspaces for the current project,
including local folders found in ./workspace/ that aren't in the global registry
(marked with (local)). ✎ marks the most recently edited.
