Surface problems that need attention right now.
When to Use
- User asks "any problems?" or "what needs my attention?"
- User asks about errors, failures, or warnings
- Something seems wrong and user wants a diagnostic
- User says "is anything broken?"
Instructions
- Run
scripts/alerts.shto fetch current alerts. - Categorize and present by severity:
## Alerts
### Critical
- Task TASK-042 FAILED: "TypeError in auth middleware" — agent ses-a1b2 (backend)
→ Fix: Review the error, create a follow-up task, or retry
### Warning
- Budget at 85% ($4.25 / $5.00) — consider increasing budget or pausing low-priority tasks
- Agent ses-e5f6 stalled for 3m 20s — consider killing it with /bernstein-agents
### Info
- 2 tasks blocked, waiting for human approval — use /bernstein-approve to review
- For each alert, suggest a concrete action:
- Failed task → offer to create a retry task or inspect the error
- Stalled agent → offer to kill it
- Budget warning → show cost breakdown
- Blocked task → link to approval flow
