description: Print current vault stats — sources, concepts, entities, stubs, recent activity. when_to_use: Use for a quick read on where the vault stands. Read-only; writes nothing. Reads from wiki/.meta/ sidecar cache — O(1) regardless of vault size. Triggered by phrases like "status", "vault stats", "what's in the wiki", "how many sources". allowed-tools: Read, Bash, Glob, Grep

Wiki Status

Print a one-screen summary of the current vault. Read-only — never writes.

Source of truth

Read from wiki/.meta/sources.json and wiki/.meta/backlinks.json. These are O(1) to read regardless of vault size. If either is missing or older than the newest file under wiki/sources/, wiki/concepts/, or wiki/entities/, run python3 scripts/build_meta.py first.

What to report

Counts

| Layer | Count | |---|---| | Sources (wiki/sources/) | N | | Concepts (full pages) | N | | Concepts (stubs) | N | | Entities (full pages) | N | | Entities (stubs) | N | | Syntheses | N | | Outputs | N |

Derive "full pages" vs "stubs" from each page's type: frontmatter (via a grep over the first ~15 lines of each file — or use wiki/.meta/backlinks.json + per-type counts). Exclude _index*.md.

Health signals

• Raw sources awaiting ingest — compare the source_path set in wiki/.meta/sources.json against raw/**/*.{md,pdf,txt,docx,pptx,xlsx,xls,html,htm,epub,rtf}. Any raw file not in the sidecar set is unprocessed. Report the count; if >0, list the paths.
• Stubs approaching promotion — read wiki/.meta/backlinks.json for nodes whose type is concepts or entities AND whose source_count >= 2 OR inbound_refs_primary >= 5, AND whose frontmatter type: is stub. These are what /wiki-promote would promote. (The unscoped inbound_refs count is intentionally not used here — outputs and syntheses are Claude-authored and would inflate the signal.)
• Recent activity — last 5 entries from wiki/log.md.
• Sidecar freshness — newest file in wiki/sources|concepts|entities vs wiki/.meta/backlinks.json.generated_at. If sidecar is older, say so and suggest /wiki-compile.

Size

• wiki/index.md — lines and approximate token count (chars ÷ 4). Since index.md is a generated thin top-level, it should stay under 1K tokens. Flag if it exceeds.
• Per-type _index.md size — flag any that exceeds 10K tokens (should have auto-sharded).
• Total wiki/ content size (du -sh).

Format

Tight single-screen output. Tables for counts. Bullets for everything else. No prose paragraphs.

Guardrails

• Do not write to any file.
• Do not invoke other commands. (Running python3 scripts/build_meta.py is OK — it's read-derived cache refresh, not a user-visible operation.)
• If the vault is empty (0 sources), say so with a one-liner pointing the user at /wiki-init or /wiki-add.
