The ship-feature pipelines drive `/superpowers:*` commands as their per-node
drivers, so a fresh install had a dependency it was only told about — the
`/ccam-doctor` WARN row and a line in the README.
`server/lib/skill-plugins.js` now carries the whole thing, shared by the
doctor (reports) and the bootstrap (installs) so the two cannot disagree
about what is missing. The bootstrap installs at the very end of its DETACHED
worker — the install clones from the network and nothing in the 10 s
SessionStart hook may wait on it — retrying once behind a `marketplace add`,
logging a failure with the manual command, and never throwing: the dashboard,
hooks, CLI and MCP all work without these plugins. The outcome is recorded as
`state.skillPluginsSettled`, which `fastPathOk()` now also requires, so the
check runs exactly once per install and `/ccam-update` is the retry.
`CCAM_AUTO_INSTALL_PLUGINS=0|false|off` opts out.
Reporting is derived, installing is allowlisted. Requirements come from the
loaded templates, which is right for a report; installing from that same
source would not be, because a template is a file anyone can drop into
`DASHBOARD_PIPELINES_DIR` — it would turn "edit a JSON file" into "run this
vendor's install command on the next session". Auto-install consults
`AUTO_INSTALLABLE`, a constant in code (`superpowers` today), and reports
every other requirement as skipped.
Tests inject a `run` seam so no case reaches a real `claude plugin install`,
and cover the refusal explicitly.
systemd --user units start with systemd's own minimal PATH, not the
installer's shell PATH, so the dashboard couldn't find claude/codex
(e.g. installed under ~/.local/bin) when spawning a lane from a
service-managed server. Forward process.env.PATH into the unit's
environment from both ccam service install and the plugin bootstrap's
auto-install path.
Adds ccam service install/uninstall/status for checkout installs and wires
the same systemd --user unit into plugin-bootstrap.js, so plugin-installed
colleagues get boot persistence too instead of needing a Claude Code
session to (re)start the server after every reboot.
claude plugin install materializes the plugin's inline hooks into
~/.claude/settings.json itself, with \${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} resolved to the
actual cache path — confirmed by installing the plugin for real and
inspecting the file. Those entries also contain "hook-handler.js", so
isOurEntry()'s plain substring match could not tell a legitimate
plugin-installed hook from a leftover npm run install-hooks entry: every
SessionStart would have stripped the plugin's own working hooks right back
out. isCheckoutHookEntry() only removes entries whose command does NOT
resolve under ~/.claude/plugins/cache/. plugin-doctor.js's duplicate-hook
count uses the same predicate.
resolveAllDashboardPorts() falls back to [DEFAULT_PORT] when the discovery
file has no live entry — a reasonable guess for the CLI/hook handler, but
wrong for the bootstrap's own liveness check: with no server running at all,
the bootstrap believed one was already up and never called startDashboard(),
confirmed against a real plugin install where the dashboard never started.
plugin-doctor.js's "Server" row had the same bug. Both now read the discovery
file directly and check PID liveness via the new liveServers() (livePids()
reused it instead of duplicating the read).
Adds a root `ccam` plugin (`.claude-plugin/plugin.json`, `"source": "./"`) so
`/plugin marketplace add` + `/plugin install ccam@...` is enough on a machine
with nothing but Claude Code: no clone, no npm run setup, no manual npm start.
- scripts/plugin-bootstrap.js: SessionStart hook. Fast-path exit, Node >=22.5
gate (node:sqlite), mkdir lock with stale reclaim, deps installed into
~/.claude/agent-dashboard/runtime/ (never the plugin cache), legacy
checkout-hook cleanup (backed up), ~/.local/bin/ccam launcher, eager UI
build so client routes like /run work immediately, detached server spawn.
- scripts/plugin-open.js, scripts/plugin-doctor.js: /ccam-open, /ccam-doctor.
- server/index.js: DASHBOARD_CLIENT_DIST override (plugin cache is read-only).
- mcp/build/ is committed (plugin MCP servers start before any bootstrap could
build them) and kept honest by scripts/check-mcp-build.js (content hash,
not mtime), enforced by pre-commit when mcp/src changes.
- plugins/ccam-dashboard/.mcp.json moved under plugins/ccam/ with a working
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path (the old relative path never resolved from a
marketplace-cached subdir).
- Docs: README, INSTALL, SETUP, ARCHITECTURE, CLAUDE.md, docs/PLUGINS.md,
docs/MCP.md, docs/CLI.md, docs/HOOKS.md.
