/hive-status — Swarm Status Check
Quick status check. Shortcut for /hive status.
Arguments: $ARGUMENTS
Behavior
With arguments (specific swarm)
The argument is a swarm number, ID, or task substring.
- •Call
mcp__hive__hive_swarm_statuswith the argument as query. - •Call
mcp__hive__hive_cell_listwith the resolved swarm ID. - •Format a detailed status report:
code
Swarm #N — <status> Blueprint: <blueprint_id> Task: <task description> Created: <timestamp> Flight Pipeline: 1. <flight_id> (<bee>) .......... <status> 2. <flight_id> (<bee>) .......... <status> <-- current 3. <flight_id> (<bee>) .......... waiting Cells: 3/7 done [done] auth-middleware — Add JWT validation middleware [done] user-model — Create user database model [done] login-endpoint — Implement /api/login [active] session-store — Redis session storage [pending] logout-endpoint — Implement /api/logout [pending] password-reset — Password reset flow [pending] rate-limiting — Add rate limiting to auth routes
Without arguments (overview)
- •Call
mcp__hive__hive_swarm_listto get all swarms. - •Format as an overview table:
code
Plugin Hive — Swarm Overview # | Blueprint | Task | Status | Created ---|----------------|-----------------------------------|-----------|-------- 1 | feature-dev | Add dark mode toggle to sett... | buzzing | 2h ago 2 | bug-fix | Login fails when email conta... | completed | 1d ago 3 | security-audit | Scan API routes for injectio... | failed | 3d ago
- •If there are active (buzzing) swarms, also call
mcp__hive__hive_beekeeper_statusto show the last health check summary.
Formatting
- •Show relative timestamps when possible (e.g. "2h ago", "1d ago").
- •Truncate task descriptions to ~40 chars in table views.
- •Use status labels: buzzing, completed, failed, cancelled, paused, blocked.
- •For cell status, use bracket indicators:
[done],[active],[pending],[failed],[verifying]. - •Show cell completion as a ratio (e.g.
3/7 done).
Important
- •This is a read-only status check. Do NOT modify anything.
- •Do NOT write code or edit files.
