Build Status

The user wants to check build status. Parse "$ARGUMENTS" for pipeline information.

Approach

1. Identify the pipeline

   • If arguments provided, use them to identify the pipeline
   • If in a git repo, try to match against Buildkite pipelines

2. List recent builds using buildkite_list_builds

   • Filter by pipeline if specified
   • Show the most recent builds (limit to ~5-10)

3. Present a summary showing:

   • Build number and state (passed/failed/running/etc.)
   • Branch and commit
   • When it was created
   • Duration if completed

4. Highlight any issues

   • Failed builds should be called out
   • Long-running builds might need attention
   • Blocked builds waiting for approval

Format the output as a clear table or list that's easy to scan.

Examples

• /buildkite:status - List recent builds (user should specify pipeline or be in relevant repo)
• /buildkite:status my-pipeline - Recent builds for my-pipeline
• /buildkite:status my-pipeline main - Recent builds for my-pipeline on main branch
