this lists all modifications, when check-projects tells you one line if your project is WIP:

x uralys/web * M www

then you go work with your modifications on your project. https://github.com/rupa/z is perfect to go from projects to projects.

I really like your response and your approach to it; I would like to work with you. :P

I do not need a CLI tool. I can come up with a very simple script or even an one-liner (like you just did) to achieve what I want.

Worth noting that neovim shows some git status when editing a file inside a git repository, and there are ways to do the same from your shell.

FWIW, I think this project was vibe coded with an LLM, but if it works, it works, so it makes no difference to me. The only reason I mentioned it is that "vibe coding" is not inherently bad. I do not even like the term. If you "vibe code" without knowledge, then yeah, it is bad, just as bad as a shitty developer writing code is.

Thanks :D I like working with people who appreciate simple solutions.

This sort of response to complex solutions used to be more prevalent on HN. When I got downvoted I was like "..this is the end isn't it" :P Maybe the unix way is a dying strategy IDK, but you give me hope.

I did not realise that, I'd be far more worried about running it than most human coded projects out of fear of it doing something destructive. Not that humans don't make mistakes, but at least they have a mental model and intent. I suppose it depends on the definition of "vibe coded" I've heard some people talk about sending the LLM off into a loop and then trying to use the result, whereas if you are just using it as a more powerful autocomplete and playing captain then that's a lot better.

Yeah, I am surprised that you would get downvoted for this. Seriously though. A simple yet effective solution. What is wrong with that?! This is what programmers used to do. :(

As for the LLM part: I have written a couple of projects with the help of LLMs and it works perfectly! I know what I wanted it to do and how, and I did extensive testing, and I am familiar with the whole code, of course. The problem arises when people who "vibe code" do not have the knowledge to begin with. It ended up writing code that I would write because of me. :D It just wrote it quicker, that is all. Ultimately I would have written the same code, but it would have taken me a bit more time because I would have had to read documentation first (which I do not mind, I love doing it).

Forgot that was a bash feature..

  ls | xargs -I % bash -c 'cd %; pwd; [[ $(git status -s) ]] && echo WIP || echo clean'
