The READMEs never said tmux was needed, so a fresh install only found out
when Start Run failed with nothing explaining why. Both doctors were silent
about it too.
- README/README.vi: a prerequisites table (node, npm, git, tmux, claude,
codex, gh, systemd) and per-OS tmux install + verify steps; the feature
list is regrouped into observe/drive/configure and now covers analytics,
alerts, import, remote sources, the config explorer and Update all.
- INSTALL: Step 0 for the system packages, plus a troubleshooting entry
separating "tmux missing" from "the server has a different PATH".
- SETUP/docs/README: the same troubleshooting entry and a pointer to Step 0.
- plugin-doctor: a tmux row, WARN and never FAIL - the run console and
`lanes shell` break without it, nothing else does. Reuses tmux.js's own
isTmuxAvailable().
- agenthub doctor: asks GET /api/run/tmux instead, because the PATH that
decides whether a run starts is the server's, not the caller's shell's.
An archive-sourced marketplace entry ("source": "url" — this project's own)
makes Claude Code unpack the plugin rather than clone it, so the cache dir
has no .git. getUpdatesStatus probed for .git first and returned "not a git
clone; check for updates manually", skipping the entire release layer:
update_available stayed false however many releases were published, and
plugin_marketplace/plugin_name were never set, so POST /api/updates/apply's
plugin branch could never fire (it answered 409, claiming nothing newer was
published). The bug reads as "up to date", so it stayed invisible for as
long as the install happened to be current.
The plugin branch now runs BEFORE the .git probe and answers without git at
all: the repository URL comes from the marketplace manifest on disk
(known_marketplaces.json -> .claude-plugin/marketplace.json -> source.url,
null rather than a guessed host for a github owner/repo shorthand), and
package.json is the only local comparison signal. A failed release lookup
is reported as release_check, never as "nothing newer".
UI/CLI: the "not a git clone" note is gated on install_kind !== "plugin", so
the Update now button is offered where the dashboard can actually check and
apply.
Update detection was a commit count against the default branch, which says nothing about whether a *version* shipped and is pure noise on the plugin cache (a depth-1 clone, where every distance is a graft artefact). It now reads the forge's own releases API and compares the published tag to this install's package.json version, falling back to the commit count only when no release can be read — with the reason in release_check, so "up to date" never silently means "we could not look".
Two states a commit count cannot express: dev_build (ahead of the newest release, missing nothing from it) now reads "Dev build - N ahead" instead of a false "Up to date"; and on a shallow clone every commits_*_release field is null and dev_build is never asserted, because the numbers would be meaningless.
POST /api/updates/apply gains a second mode, chosen by install kind and never by the request body. A checkout still fast-forwards onto the release tag, rebuilds and self-restarts. A ~/.claude/plugins/cache/ install is refused by applyUpdate (that directory is Claude Code's to replace) and handed instead to a detached chain: claude plugin marketplace update -> claude plugin update -y -> plugin-bootstrap.js --force from the NEW cache dir, which retires this server and starts its replacement. Both write the HTTP response before anything stops the process.
The chain records every outcome to plugin-update.json in the runtime dir, outside the cache the update replaces, so the next server reports it as last_plugin_update: a failed chain is otherwise indistinguishable from a slow one, and the tab would poll a server that never returns. /reload-plugins is deliberately not in the chain - it is REPL-scoped to the session that runs it, so no background process can perform it, and plugin-bootstrap derives PLUGIN_ROOT from its own __dirname, which is what makes it unnecessary for the dashboard.
Also rebrands the sidebar subtitle, splash and page title to SmartGift Solution, and corrects three ARCHITECTURE.md statements that claimed /apply did not exist.
Verified: server 1683/1683, client 486/486, build, prettier, file-header audit, openapi.yaml regenerated.
Lane Pipeline Pass Rates read `lanes.stages`, which is a snapshot of the
pass in flight: re-entering a node overwrites its record, and moving
backwards deletes every record ahead of the new stage. The report treated
one lane row as one run, so shipping ten features through a lane still
counted as one, and no node could ever exceed 1/1. History survived only
via `lane_features`, which is written when a feature is activated — a
path most users never take. The panel was not wrong, it was structurally
incapable of counting.
Add `lane_stage_events`, an append-only log written by every declaration
and every accepted detection, and aggregate from that. A run is one pass
through the template: the log starts a new one when the lane moves
backwards or leaves the template's last node. Existing snapshots are
seeded as one run each on first boot, so upgrading does not read as
"never run". Templates a lane is configured with are still listed at
zero — a pipeline going unused has to be visible as such.
Count inferred reaches too, in their own column and their own colour.
Detection stays out of the pass rate ("inference is never evidence"), but
reporting a stage the hooks demonstrably saw as "never reached" is what
made the panel look broken to anyone who works without running the
pipeline commands.
Also reject a stage naming no node of the lane's pipeline (400 EBADSTAGE,
listing the ones that exist) instead of storing it with a warning nobody
reads. A real lane had accumulated five such keys, one of them `test` on
a ship-feature lane whose CI node is `gates` — which is why that row read
never-reached while the stage had in fact been declared. Aliases still
resolve, so shorthand is unaffected.
Two leftovers from the rebrand, done together because they touch the same
docs and manifests.
**Data directory.** `agent-dashboard` could not simply be renamed in the
source: it names a real directory holding the live SQLite database. Startup
now moves it once, via `migrateLegacyDataDir()` in `server/lib/claude-home.js`
— a same-filesystem rename, so it is instant even at multiple gigabytes and
cannot leave two divergent copies. `getDataDir()` stays PURE and resolves to
the legacy path until the move happens; the first version of this put the
rename inside the getter, which meant `npm run test:server` relocated the
developer's real database as a side effect. The call sits behind
`require.main === module` and ahead of the router requires, because those pull
in db.js, which opens SQLite at module load. A failed rename is silent and the
old directory keeps being used: an unfashionable directory name beats a blank
database beside an unreachable one. Same treatment for the port-discovery file
(`.agent-dashboard.json` → `.agenthub.json`, old one dropped on write).
Not renamed on purpose: the Sagi localStorage keys (renaming silently resets
everyone's prefs) and the PWA manifest `id` (changing it orphans an installed
app).
**MCP server.** 4 tool calls in 46 days across 577,132 events, against 4,556
lines of TypeScript, a 2 MB committed build artifact, and a pre-commit guard
that had already blocked commits twice. Deleted: `mcp/`, the maintainer skills
and `mcp-reviewer` agent, the build check, `plugins/agenthub/.mcp.json`,
`docs/MCP.md`, 12 npm scripts, 5 Makefile targets, and every doc section
describing it.
Kept, because they are unrelated things sharing the name: the Config
Explorer's MCP tab and its API, per-lane Playwright MCP, the agenthub-config
plugin's MCP audit, and the historical `mcp__plugin_agenthub_*` events that
analytics must keep attributing.
Verified: server 1432/1432, client 459/459, tsc clean, prettier clean. Both
directions of the migration proven — a sandbox-HOME test run leaves the legacy
directory untouched, and a real boot moves it with its contents intact.
Clean break, no compatibility alias. Renames the product name, the CLI
binary (`ccam` -> `agenthub`), the env var prefix (`CCAM_` ->
`AGENTHUB_`), the Prometheus metric namespace (`ccam_*` ->
`agenthub_*`), the tmux session prefix (`ccam-lane-<id>` ->
`agenthub-lane-<id>`), the per-repo runtime profile directory
(`.ccam/profile` -> `.agenthub/profile`), the lanes state root
(`~/.claude/ccam-lanes` -> `~/.claude/agenthub-lanes`), the bundled
plugins (`plugins/ccam*` -> `plugins/agenthub*`) and their slash
commands (`/ccam-doctor` -> `/agenthub-doctor`, `/ccam:*` ->
`/agenthub:*`).
Because there is no alias, an existing install has to be updated by
hand: rename its `.ccam/profile` directory and any `CCAM_*` variables,
and reinstall the plugin under its new name.
Two other name families are deliberately left alone here, since they are
not just strings: the `Claude-Code-Monitor` repository/marketplace name,
and the `agent-dashboard` npm package plus its `~/.claude/agent-dashboard`
runtime directory, which holds the live database and needs a migration
rather than a rename.
Verified: server 1406/1406, client 459/459, `grep -i ccam` clean across
tracked files, `openapi.yaml` regenerated (95 paths, unchanged count).
