Resume, continue, or check status of a Double Diamond consulting engagement. This is the primary re-entry point for returning to engagement work across sessions. Use whenever the user returns to an existing engagement — even if they don't say "resume". Trigger on: "continue the engagement", "resume diamond", "pick up where I left off", "what's the status", "where was I", "how far along", "show progress", "diamond status", "what's next", "continue working on [client name]", "back to the [project name]", "let's keep going on [topic]", "open the [client] engagement", "check on [engagement]", "engagement status", any mention of a known engagement slug or client name in the context of continuing work, or ANY session start that references an existing diamond project. This skill should be the default when the user mentions an existing client/engagement name without specifying a particular phase — it orients first, then routes to the right phase skill.
From cogni-consultingnpx claudepluginhub cogni-work/insight-wave --plugin cogni-consultingThis skill is limited to using the following tools:
Searches, retrieves, and installs Agent Skills from prompts.chat registry using MCP tools like search_skills and get_skill. Activates for finding skills, browsing catalogs, or extending Claude.
Searches prompts.chat for AI prompt templates by keyword or category, retrieves by ID with variable handling, and improves prompts via AI. Use for discovering or enhancing prompts.
Implements structured self-debugging workflow for AI agent failures: capture errors, diagnose patterns like loops or context overflow, apply contained recoveries, and generate introspection reports.
Session entry point for returning to engagement work. This skill orients the consultant by showing where they left off and what to do next — the dashboard view that keeps multi-session engagements on track.
Diamond engagements span multiple sessions and phases. Without a clear re-entry point, consultants lose context between sessions and waste time reconstructing what happened. This skill bridges that gap: it reads the engagement state, surfaces progress at a glance, and recommends the most valuable next step. The goal is to get the consultant back into productive flow within seconds.
Scan the workspace for diamond engagements:
find . -maxdepth 3 -name "consulting-project.json" -path "*/cogni-consulting/*"
Each match represents an engagement (extract the slug from the directory name). If no engagements are found, say so and suggest the consulting-setup skill.
client field in consulting-project.json across all engagements. Fuzzy matching is fine — "Telekom", "Deutsche Telekom", "DT" should all match if the engagement client contains "Telekom".bash $CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/engagement-status.sh "<project-dir>"
The script returns JSON with engagement details, phase state, plugin status, methods used, decisions, and recommended next actions.
The consultant should feel like picking up a well-organized notebook, not reading a database report. Lead with the engagement name and client, then the phase progress:
Acme Cloud Portfolio Expansion (acme-cloud-expansion) Client: Acme Cloud Services | Vision: strategic-options | Language: en
| Phase | Status | Files | Plugin Projects |
|---|---|---|---|
| Discover | complete | 12 | research: acme-landscape, tips: b2b-ict/acme, portfolio: acme-cloud |
| Define | in-progress | 3 | claims: verified 8/12 assumptions |
| Develop | pending | 0 | — |
| Deliver | pending | 0 | — |
After the table:
Present the recommended next action from the status output:
Recommended next step: Continue the Define phase — 4 assumptions still unverified. Run
consulting-defineto complete assumption verification and synthesize the problem statement.
Offer to proceed with the recommendation immediately.
If all phases are complete, congratulate the consultant and suggest consulting-export for the final deliverable package.
Returning to an innovation-portfolio engagement after 3 days:
NovaTech Innovation Portfolio (novatech-innovation) Client: NovaTech Solutions | Vision: innovation-portfolio | Language: de
Phase Status Files Plugin Projects Discover complete 9 research: novatech-landscape, tips: deep-tech/novatech Define complete 5 claims: verified 14/17 assumptions Develop in-progress 4 tips: value model in progress Deliver pending 0 — You left off in the Develop phase — value modeling is underway with 12 TIPS paths generated. Scenario planning hasn't started yet.
Methods used: desk research, trend scan (deep), stakeholder mapping, assumption verification, affinity clustering, HMW synthesis, value modeling (in progress)
Last decision: Focused HMW questions on Horizon 2 opportunities after discovery showed Horizon 1 is well-covered.
Recommended next step: Continue
consulting-developto finish value modeling and run scenario planning.
Diamond engagements naturally span multiple sessions. Each phase involves significant work — desk research, trend analysis, stakeholder synthesis, option modeling — that benefits from focused sessions. This skill is the recommended re-entry point after breaks.
When presenting the status summary, acknowledge what the consultant accomplished in previous sessions if timestamps suggest recent productive work. This continuity helps consultants feel their work persists across sessions.
consulting-project.json for the language field. If present, communicate in that language (status messages, instructions, recommendations). Technical terms, skill names, and CLI commands remain in English.
