Arguments
None required. $ARGUMENTS
Process
1. Detect Storytime Presence
Check for specs/.storytime/. If not found, check for storytime artifacts
elsewhere in the repo (adapt-in-place mode may not use .storytime/).
If no storytime presence found:
Storytime is not set up in this repo.
Run /storytime:bootstrap to get started, or
Run /storytime:survey to scan the codebase first.
2. Read Configuration
Read specs/.storytime/config.md for mode and settings.
3. Gather State
Cohort:
- Read
specs/.storytime/cohort/_roster.md - List active, inactive, and specialist personas
- Show session count and last active date per persona
Sessions:
- List all directories under
specs/.storytime/sessions/ - For each: topic, date, which phases completed (by checking which files exist)
- Flag incomplete sessions (missing plan.md = didn't finish)
Archive:
- Read
specs/.storytime/archive/_index.mdif it exists - Count: current (warm), rollups, cold items
- Flag any index staleness (files in archive/ not in index)
History:
- Read
specs/.storytime/history/decisions.md - Count total decisions, most recent decision date
- List sessions from
specs/.storytime/history/sessions/
Survey Coverage:
- Find the most recent survey.md with a fingerprint
- Show: coverage ratio, commit drift since last survey, gap paths

5. Suggest Next Actions
Based on state, suggest relevant next steps:
- Stale survey → "Run
/storytime:surveyto update coverage" - Incomplete session → "Resume with
/storytime:storytime <topic>" - No archive index → "Run
/storytime:consolidateto organize" - Benched personas → "Consider activating or releasing via
/storytime:storytime-cohort" - High commit drift → "Codebase has changed significantly since last survey"
