question: should "siac miner status" return the total blocks mined or just the number of blocks found by the current running instance of a running miner? from my own experience it seems to be the latter as my current output shows 0 and 0 stales. however, my one block i mined 5 days ago finally showed up in my wallet balance after I gave up waiting for it to confirm 2 days ago and especially after running the miner status command a few times after I had to restart my pc and hence wallet. it went from showing 1 mined block to 0.

If you restart SIA it forgets you mined the block so you just have to wait the 144 blocks before it shows up in your wallet.

If you haven't restarted SIA the command will show you the # of blocks mined along with the # of stales.

thanks. i'd imagine the cli will eventually be updated to return the correct number of coins mined. this misreporting did stop me from mining thinking it was a bug or problem on my end. i might give it another go though, as a miner i'd like more information about difficulty, current block times and #mined blocks so i can weigh up whether i should mine or just buy my siacoins.
