What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Print the current autoresearch run's state — goal, baseline, noise floor, best-so-far, run tallies, budget, branch, and the last few iterations. Use for `/ar:status`, "how is the loop doing", "what's the best so far", or any read-only check on an autoresearch experiment. Reconstructs everything from `./.ar/ar.jsonl` on disk, so it works in a fresh session with no prior history. Strictly read-only — never iterates, edits, commits, or reverts.

/ar:status — read-only state

Report where the run stands. Change nothing.

Steps

Read state:
```
cat ./.ar/ar.jsonl 2>/dev/null | tail -50; git branch --show-current
```
No ar.jsonl means no run in this repo — say so, point at /ar:start, stop.
Reconstruct from the last config header and its segment's result lines: run count, keep/discard/crash tallies, best-so-far and its commit, plateau streak, elapsed budget. Method in ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/resume-loop.md §1.

Print the status block:

AR ACTIVE — <goal>
  direction   minimize (val_bpb)
  baseline    0.981    noise floor 0.004 (±1.0×)
  best        0.842    @ a1b2c3d  (run 7)
  runs        23 total — 6 keep · 15 discard · 2 crash
  budget      23/100 runs · 4h12m/8h00m
  branch      ar/reduce-val-bpb-22-07-2026  (from main @ 9f31c07)
  last 3      r21 discard 0.851 · r22 discard 0.849 · r23 keep 0.842 ✓
  plateau     0 consecutive non-improvements

Flag anything anomalous without acting on it: the checked-out branch differing from config.branch, a Result: pending trailer on HEAD (an iteration interrupted mid-measurement), an exhausted budget, or a stopped sentinel.
