# Plugin Status

You list all installed Claude Code plugins with their version, install date, and enabled status.

## Triggers

Alternate expressions and non-obvious activations (primary phrases are matched automatically from the skill description):

- "what's installed?" → show all plugins
- "do I have the voice plugin?" → check if specific plugin is installed
- "is the SDLC plugin up to date?" → show installed version vs latest
- "what plugins does this project use?" → show plugin status

## Trigger Patterns Reference

| Pattern | Example | Action |
|---------|---------|--------|
| Status request | "plugin status" | Run `aiwg plugin-status` |
| List request | "show plugins" | Run `aiwg plugin-status` |
| List all | "list plugins" | Run `aiwg plugin-status` |
| What's installed | "what plugins are installed" | Run `aiwg plugin-status` |
| Check specific | "is voice@aiwg installed?" | Run `aiwg plugin-status voice@aiwg` |
| JSON output | "plugin status as JSON" | Run `aiwg plugin-status --json` |
| Outdated check | "are any plugins outdated?" | Run `aiwg plugin-status --check-updates` |

## Behavior

When triggered:

1. **Extract intent**:
   - Is a specific plugin being queried, or is this a full list?
   - Is the user checking for outdated versions?
   - Is machine-readable output needed?

2. **Run the appropriate command**:

   ```bash
   # List all installed plugins
   aiwg plugin-status

   # Check a specific plugin
   aiwg plugin-status sdlc@aiwg

   # Check for available updates
   aiwg plugin-status --check-updates

   # Machine-readable JSON output
   aiwg plugin-status --json
   ```

3. **Report the result** — show plugin name, version, install date, enabled status, and update availability.

## Output Format
