name: instinct-status description: Show learned instincts (project + global) with confidence command: true

Instinct Status Command

Shows learned instincts for the current project plus global instincts, grouped by domain.

Implementation

Run the instinct CLI, resolving the active ECC plugin root the same way hooks/hooks.json and the other slash commands (/sessions, /skill-health) do — env var → standard install → known plugin roots → plugin cache → fallback. This avoids the divergence that happens when CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT is unset while a legacy ~/.claude/skills/continuous-learning-v2/ directory still exists (#2037).

ECC_ROOT="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-$(node -e "var r=(function(){var p=require('path'),f=require('fs'),o=require('os');var e=process.env.CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT;if(e&&e.trim())return e.trim();var d=p.join(o.homedir(),'.claude');function L(x){try{return require(p.join(x,'scripts','lib','resolve-ecc-root')).resolveEccRoot()}catch(_){return null}}var r=L(d);if(r)return r;var s=['ecc','ecc@ecc','marketplaces/ecc','everything-claude-code','everything-claude-code@everything-claude-code','marketplaces/everything-claude-code'];for(var i=0;i<s.length;i++){r=L(p.join(d,'plugins',s[i]));if(r)return r}try{var g=['ecc','everything-claude-code'];for(var j=0;j<g.length;j++){var c=p.join(d,'plugins','cache',g[j]);var O=f.readdirSync(c);for(var k=0;k<O.length;k++){var q=p.join(c,O[k]);var V=f.readdirSync(q);for(var m=0;m<V.length;m++){r=L(p.join(q,V[m]));if(r)return r}}}}catch(_){}return d})();console.log(r)")}"

Usage

/instinct-status

What to Do

1. Detect current project context (git remote/path hash)
2. Read project instincts from ~/.claude/homunculus/projects/<project-id>/instincts/
3. Read global instincts from ~/.claude/homunculus/instincts/
4. Merge with precedence rules (project overrides global when IDs collide)
5. Display grouped by domain with confidence bars and observation stats
