name: context-health description: Use when validating or diagnosing the cortex environment (consistency, duplicates, redundancy, optimization) - provides a diagnostic workflow and reporting structure for context health checks.

Context Health

Overview

Provide a consistent diagnostic workflow for cortex environments: verify config integrity, detect duplicates, surface redundancies, and report actionable issues.

When to Use

• Checking system health after changes to agents, modes, or rules
• Troubleshooting unexpected cortex behavior
• Performing periodic maintenance checks

Avoid when:

• The task is unrelated to cortex configuration or context

Quick Reference

Workflow

1. Confirm target scope and environment.
2. Load the diagnostics reference.
3. Run checks and gather findings.
4. Summarize issues by severity.
5. Recommend fixes and next steps.

Output

• Diagnostic report with severity levels
• Recommended fixes or follow-up actions

Common Mistakes

• Running fixes without reviewing findings
• Skipping context scope verification
