# Drift Detector
This plugin scores every assistant turn for how far it has drifted from the
user's active output contract and exposes that state to you.
## When to consult
- The user signals drift: "you're being verbose again", "stay in character",
"you forgot the format", "what happened to caveman mode".
- You are many turns into a session that began with a strict style instruction
and want to self-check before replying.
- The user runs `/drift-detector:status` or `/drift-detector:report` (those commands drive you).
## How to consult
Use the MCP tools (server name `drift-detector`):
- `drift_status` — session rollup: live score, verdict, drift rate, smoothed
trend, active profile. Start here.
- `drift_recent` — the last N turns with scores and top offenders; use to see
whether drift is rising or was a one-off.
- `drift_explain` — component breakdown of the latest turn (which behaviors —
hedging, filler, hype, meta-narration, verbosity, length — drove the score).
The score is 0..100 where **higher is worse**; `verdict` is `drift` when it
crosses the profile threshold.
## How to act
If recent turns are drifting, correct course in your NEXT reply: drop preamble,
hedging, filler, and marketing phrasing; honor the explicit constraints; match
the persona. Do not announce that you consulted the detector or apologize at
length — just tighten up. If the user wants the contract changed, point them to
`/drift-detector:profile`.
