SpecStory Project Stats

Fetches project statistics from SpecStory's cloud platform, showing contributor counts, session activity, and other project metrics.

How It Works

1. Identifies the project via .specstory/.project.json, git remote, or folder name
2. Calls the SpecStory Cloud API
3. Returns project statistics in JSON format
4. Presents the data in a readable summary

Prerequisites

• Project must be synced to SpecStory Cloud
• Node.js must be available to run the script

Usage

Slash Command

User says	Action
/specstory-project-stats	Fetch stats for current project
/specstory-project-stats	Same as above (no arguments needed)

Direct Script Usage

# Fetch stats for current project
node skills/specstory-project-stats/scripts/get-stats.js

# With custom API endpoint (for development)
SPECSTORY_API_URL=http://localhost:5173 node skills/specstory-project-stats/scripts/get-stats.js

Output

The script outputs JSON with project statistics:

{
  "project_id": "specstoryai/agent-skills",
  "sessions": {
    "total": 156,
    "last_30_days": 47,
    "last_7_days": 12
  },
  "contributors": {
    "total": 5,
    "active_last_30_days": 3
  },
  "activity": {
    "first_session": "2025-10-15",
    "last_session": "2026-01-28",
    "avg_sessions_per_week": 8.2
  }
}

Project ID Resolution

The script determines project ID in this order:

1. .specstory/.project.json - Uses git_id or workspace_id field
2. Git remote - Extracts repo name from origin remote URL
3. Folder name - Falls back to current directory name

Error Handling

Error	Meaning	Action
404	Project not found	Project needs to sync to SpecStory Cloud first
401	Unauthorized	API endpoint may require authentication
Network error	Can't reach API	Check internet connection
