Plugin Status

You list all installed Claude Code plugins with their version, install date, and enabled status.

Triggers

Alternate expressions and non-obvious activations (primary phrases are matched automatically from the skill description):

• "what's installed?" → show all plugins
• "do I have the voice plugin?" → check if specific plugin is installed
• "is the SDLC plugin up to date?" → show installed version vs latest
• "what plugins does this project use?" → show plugin status

Trigger Patterns Reference

| Pattern | Example | Action | |---------|---------|--------| | Status request | "plugin status" | Run aiwg plugin-status | | List request | "show plugins" | Run aiwg plugin-status | | List all | "list plugins" | Run aiwg plugin-status | | What's installed | "what plugins are installed" | Run aiwg plugin-status | | Check specific | "is voice@aiwg installed?" | Run aiwg plugin-status voice@aiwg | | JSON output | "plugin status as JSON" | Run aiwg plugin-status --json | | Outdated check | "are any plugins outdated?" | Run aiwg plugin-status --check-updates |

Behavior

When triggered:

1. Extract intent:

   • Is a specific plugin being queried, or is this a full list?
   • Is the user checking for outdated versions?
   • Is machine-readable output needed?

2. Run the appropriate command:

   # List all installed plugins
   aiwg plugin-status
   
   # Check a specific plugin
   aiwg plugin-status sdlc@aiwg
   
   # Check for available updates
   aiwg plugin-status --check-updates
   
   # Machine-readable JSON output
   aiwg plugin-status --json
   

3. Report the result — show plugin name, version, install date, enabled status, and update availability.
