+name: Food Status
+description: Provides a summary of the current day's food intake and nutritional progress. Responds to the "/FoodStatus" command.
+version: 1.0.0
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+The Food Status skill provides a quick summary of the current day's food intake and nutritional progress. It reads from the Food Journal Database and presents a concise status report.
+
+Related skills:
+
+- [Food Journal DB](../food-journal-db/SKILL.md): store and read food data
+- [Clock](../clock/SKILL.md): get current date/time
+
+## Command
+
+The skill responds to the `/FoodStatus` command (case-insensitive).
+
+## Execution Plan
+
+When the user invokes `/FoodStatus`, follow this plan:
+
+1. Get the current date using the `Clock` skill
+2. Read today's food journal entry from `{root}/food-journal/YYYY-MM-DD.md`
+3. If no entry exists for today, report that no food has been logged yet
+4. If an entry exists, extract and present:
+   - The daily nutritional facts summary table
+   - A brief status of each meal section that has entries
+   - Recommendations for remaining meals based on goals
+
+## Output Format
+
+Present the status in the following format. Note: The status output includes a "Remaining" column (Goal - Consumed) which is specific to this status view and differs from the Food Journal DB format.
+
+```markdown
+## 📊 Food Status for {Day of Week}, {Date}
+
+### Daily Progress
+
+| Nutritional Facts | Goal | Consumed | Remaining | Progress |
+|-------------------|-----:|---------:|----------:|---------:|
+| Calories          | 2100 |      907 |      1193 |      43% |
+| Carbs             | 230g |      68g |      162g |      30% |
+| Fats              |  70g |      48g |       22g |      68% |
+| Proteins          | 160g |      57g |      103g |      36% |
+| Fibers            |  35g |       3g |       32g |       9% |
+
+### Meals Logged
+
+- ✅ Breakfast: 165 cal
+- ✅ Morning Snack: 57 cal
+- ✅ Lunch: 685 cal
+- ⬜ Afternoon Snack: not logged
+- ⬜ Dinner: not logged
+- ⬜ Night Snack: not logged
+
+### Recommendations
+
+{Brief recommendations based on remaining nutritional needs and goals from GOALS.md}
+```
+
+## Status Indicators
+
+- ✅ = meal logged with entries
+- ⬜ = meal section empty or not logged
+
+## Recommendations Logic
+
+1. Read the user's goals from `{root}/food-journal/GOALS.md`
+2. Calculate remaining nutritional needs
+3. Provide actionable suggestions:
+   - If protein is below 50% progress and it's past lunch: prioritize protein-rich foods
+   - If fiber is below 30% progress: suggest vegetables and whole grains
+   - If fats are above 80% progress: recommend lean protein sources
+   - If calories are close to goal: suggest lighter options
+
+## No Entry Scenario
+
+If no food journal entry exists for today, output:
+
+```markdown
+## 📊 Food Status for {Day of Week}, {Date}
+
+No food has been logged for today yet.
+
+To start logging, tell me what you've eaten! For example:
+- "I had coffee and toast for breakfast"
+- "For lunch I ate a chicken salad"
+```
