When to use this skill

Use Status when an AI agent needs a reusable SKILL.md workflow for this job: Check HOL Guard local protection status for Claude Code without changing configuration. Use when the user asks whether Guard is installed, active, healthy, or protecting Claude Code.

When not to use it

Skip Status when the task is outside the coding category, or when a more specific skill in this directory already covers the same workflow with clearer triggers.

How to install

  1. Claude Code personal install: place the skill and its bundled files at ~/.claude/skills/status/SKILL.md. For a shared project, commit the folder at .claude/skills/status/ instead.
  2. Current Claude Code detects SKILL.md changes in watched directories during the session. If you just created a top-level skills directory, run /reload-skills. Check that the skill is listed before testing its trigger.
  3. For Claude chat or Cowork in the Desktop app, manage uploaded skills in Customize > Skills; copying files into a local Claude Code folder is not a Desktop install. Other agents may use different install locations.

What this skill does

# Check HOL Guard status

Perform read-only checks first. Do not repair, install, reconnect, or change policy unless the user separately asks for that action.

1. Confirm the CLI exists:

```bash command -v hol-guard ```

2. If present, report the installed version and current protection state:

```bash hol-guard --version hol-guard status ```

3. Summarize only what the CLI proves. Distinguish active local protection from optional Guard Cloud connectivity.

4. If Guard reports degraded or missing Claude Code protection, suggest running `/hol-guard:setup`. Do not claim that having this Claude plugin installed means runtime protection is active.
