Your objective is to display a CocoContext organizational standards file.
## Pre-flight Check
Check that `.cocoplus/` exists. If not:
Output: "CocoPlus not initialized in this directory. Run `$pod init` to begin." Then stop.
## Resolve Target File
If a file name argument was provided (e.g., `$context view approved-models` or `$context view approved-models.md`):
- Normalize: strip `.md` suffix if present, then append `.md`
- Read `.cocoplus/context/<file-name>.md`
- If not found: output error listing available files (same as `$context list` output), then stop
If no argument was provided:
- Run `$context list` output first (show the status table)
- Prompt: "Which context file would you like to view? Enter the name (e.g., approved-models):"
- Wait for response, then read the selected file
## Display File
Read the file and display its full content. After the content, output:
```
──────────────────────────────────────
File: .cocoplus/context/<category>.md
Lines: <N> | Last modified: <date>
Run `$context add` to update this file.
```
## Anti-Rationalization
| Shortcut / Temptation | Why It Fails |
|-----------------------|--------------|
| Skip showing line count and date | These are key metadata for context governance — developers need to know how stale a file is |
## Exit Criteria
- [ ] File content displayed in full
- [ ] Line count and last-modified date shown
- [ ] If file not found, available files listed with actionable next step
