# Check Service Status

Get detailed status information for specific Docker containers including health checks, resource usage, and error detection in logs.

## What It Checks

- Container running state
- Health check status
- Resource usage (CPU, memory)
- Restart count and uptime
- Recent logs (last 50 lines)
- Error detection in logs

## When to Use

- **Debugging service issues**: Investigate specific service problems
- **Resource monitoring**: Check CPU/memory usage
- **Log analysis**: Quick look at recent errors
- **Health verification**: Confirm service is truly healthy

## How to Use

```bash
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/system_status/check_service_status/execute.py \
  --service archon-intelligence
```

### Optional Arguments

```bash
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/system_status/check_service_status/execute.py \
  --service archon-intelligence \
  --include-logs \
  --include-stats \
  --log-lines 100
```

**Arguments**:
- `--service`: Service name (required)
