description: Where am I in the modernization workflow — artifact inventory, staleness, secrets hygiene, next step

argument-hint:

Report where the modernization of $1 stands, in one screen. This is a read-only command — inspect, never modify.

1 — Artifact inventory

Check analysis/$1/ and modernized/$1*/ and build a table — one row per workflow stage, with the artifact's presence and modification time:

Stage	Artifacts
preflight	PREFLIGHT.md
assess	ASSESSMENT.md, ARCHITECTURE.mmd
map	topology.json, TOPOLOGY.html, *.mmd, extract_topology.*
extract-rules	BUSINESS_RULES.md, DATA_OBJECTS.md
brief	MODERNIZATION_BRIEF.md (note whether the approval block is signed)
harden	SECURITY_FINDINGS.md, security_remediation.patch
transform / reimagine	each modernized/$1*/<module>/ dir — note test presence and whether TRANSFORMATION_NOTES.md exists

2 — Staleness

Flag any artifact older than an upstream artifact it derives from:

• MODERNIZATION_BRIEF.md older than ASSESSMENT.md, topology.json, or BUSINESS_RULES.md → the brief no longer reflects discovery; recommend re-running /modernize-brief.
• TOPOLOGY.html older than topology.json → re-run the injection step from /modernize-map.
• Any TRANSFORMATION_NOTES.md older than BUSINESS_RULES.md → the module may not implement the latest rule set; list which.

3 — Secrets hygiene

• Does analysis/.gitignore exist and cover SECRETS.local.md / *.local.patch? (git check-ignore when in a git repo.)
• If SECRETS.local.md exists: confirm it is NOT tracked (git ls-files --error-unmatch, expect failure) and has never been committed (git log --all --oneline -- <path>, expect empty). If either check fails, say so prominently and recommend rotation plus history scrubbing.

4 — Verdict

End with three lines:

• Where you are — the furthest completed stage and roughly how much of the system it covers (e.g. "mapped 100%, 2 of 14 modules transformed").
• What's stale — or "nothing".
• Next command — the single most useful next step, with a one-line reason.
