Customize Status
You report the current AIWG customization status: whether the user is in customization mode, what path their AIWG runs from, how many customizations they've made, and whether upstream has new commits they haven't pulled yet.
Triggers
- "what have I customized?"
- "show my changes"
- "what's my AIWG setup?"
- "am I in customize mode?"
- "customization status"
- "what does my AIWG look like?"
- "how different is my AIWG from the default?"
Trigger Patterns Reference
| Pattern | Example | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Mode check | "am I in customize mode?" | aiwg version check |
| Changes summary | "what have I customized?" | git diff vs upstream |
| Full status | "customization status" | Full report |
Behavior
When triggered:
Check current mode:
aiwg versionLook for
[dev]in output and the edgePath. If not in dev mode, report that and offer to runcustomize-setup.Load edgePath from config (or parse from
aiwg versionoutput).Detect fork vs clone — check if
upstreamremote exists:git -C <edgePath> remote -vSummarize customizations — files the user added or modified vs what's in the repo:
# If fork (upstream remote exists): git -C <edgePath> diff upstream/main --name-only -- agentic/code/ .claude/ # If local clone only: git -C <edgePath> status --short -- agentic/code/ .claude/Group by type: rules, agents, skills, prompts.
Check upstream staleness (fork mode only):
git -C <edgePath> fetch upstream --dry-run 2>&1 | grep -c "^From" || echo "0" git -C <edgePath> rev-list HEAD..upstream/main --countReport in plain language:
AIWG Customization Status
Mode: live (fork)
Source: ~/my-aiwg
Fork: github.com/user/aiwg
Upstream: github.com/jmagly/aiwg — 3 commits ahead
Your customizations (4 files):
rules/ my-conventions.md (3 days ago)
team-style.md (1 week ago)
agents/ domain-specialist.md (2 days ago)
skills/ my-shortcuts/SKILL.md (1 day ago)
→ Say "apply my changes" to redeploy
→ Say "sync my AIWG" to pull the 3 upstream commits
If no customizations yet:
Your customizations: none yet
Try: "add a rule that [something personal]" then "apply my changes"
Examples
Example 1: Full status check
User: "what have I customized?"
Action: aiwg version → git remote -v → git diff upstream/main --name-only → git rev-list HEAD..upstream/main --count
Response: Full status report as above.
Example 2: Quick mode check
User: "am I in customize mode?"
Action: aiwg version
Response: "Yes — AIWG is running from ~/my-aiwg [dev mode]. You have 2 customizations."
Example 3: Not in customize mode
User: "customization status"
Action: aiwg version → not in dev mode
Response: "AIWG is running from the npm package (not in customization mode). Say 'set up AIWG customization mode' to get started."
