`dashboard_runs.mode` is NOT NULL and `recordRun` swallows insert errors by
design, so pty-run.js passing `mode: null` meant NO tmux-backed run was ever
persisted — the newest row in a live database dated from before pty-run.js
replaced run-spawner.js. `publicRun` reads cwd, model, prompt preview,
started_at and session_id off that row and the handle itself is recomputed
from tmux, so the runs modal rendered a live row with no cwd, no model, no
prompt and a start date of Jan 1 1970. The same missing row is why a resumed
session kept its separate `external` badge: the client dedupes an external
session against the session ids carried by run rows, and no run row ever
carried one.
- pty-run.js records `mode: "interactive"` — every run here is one pane.
- dashboard-runs.js still never fails a live run on a db error, but warns
instead of swallowing silently; that silence hid this for six weeks.
- RunHistory renders `startedAt: 0` as "-" rather than dating a row with no
known start time to the epoch.
Also closes the other half of the same lie: adopting a pane that is already
running an agent now throws ERUNLIVE (409 from both the lane start action and
POST /api/run) when the request carried a prompt or a resumeSessionId. That
argv cannot be typed over a live agent, so answering 200 reported a resume
that never spawned. A start asking for nothing but a pane still adopts.
Internal SmartGift build of a Claude Code monitoring dashboard.
Lanes: a durable unit of parallel agent work, one per working directory,
tracked across session restarts. Managed lanes are git worktrees the
dashboard provisions and can reset or remove behind a three-check destroy
guard and a counted preflight; adopted lanes are directories you already
own and are never destroyable.
Pipelines: a lane moves through pipeline stages. A stage the agent declares
with evidence renders green; a stage inferred from the tool-event stream
renders dashed amber and never counts as done. Detection is forward-only
within a 30-minute window, and never writes the declared stage.
Workspace: one page at /run with a lane grid, the selected lane's pipeline,
and a full Claude console behind a disclosure.
