Measured on a copy of a real 1.2 GB / 253K-event database, 10 simulated
browsers + 10 hooks/s for 90 s: event-loop delay p99 1239 ms → 32 ms (max
2.0 s → 94 ms), 266 failed requests → 0, 74 → 111 requests/s served, server
RSS 633 → 346 MB. Entry bundle 975 KB raw → 394 KB (106 KB brotli).
Server
- /api/analytics: the events-table scans run in the read worker
(scoped-stats eventAggregates, read-pool job analyticsEvents); runRead takes
maxAgeMs — analytics 10 s, /api/workflows 30 s — keyed by the args
- /api/workflows/skill-usage: +event_type and a tool_name range instead of
LIKE, so it uses idx_events_tool (784 ms → a few ms)
- idx_events_session_type_tool (session_id, event_type, tool_name,
created_at) replaces idx_events_session_type: covering reads for session
stats, the hook dedupes and the import resume point (1.2 s → 20 ms); 64 MB
cache_size and 256 MB mmap_size on both connections
- WAL: the server sets wal_autocheckpoint = 0 and checkpoints PASSIVE every
DASHBOARD_WAL_CHECKPOINT_MS (5 s) from the read worker's own writable
connection; a failed checkpoint restores the automatic one (hook COMMIT p95
109 ms → 15 ms at 100 hooks/s)
- tmux: one list-sessions answers a whole GET /api/lanes and the heal beat
(liveSessions), shared for 1 s and cleared by this process's new/kill —
GET /api/run's sync spawns had blocked 60 s of a 90 s run; the heal beat
skips tmux when nothing runs; attach options chained into 2 spawns
- hooks: TurnDuration/APIError deduped against one read per hook instead of a
query per transcript entry (23 ms/hook on a 763-turn session); one lane
scan per hook; hourly upserts skip rows that did not grow; frames are sent
after the transaction commits (and after the pane binding); new_event
carries its row id; a split pane's (slot 1–9) hooks no longer rebind the
lane's session_id
- watchdog liveness probe runs ps asynchronously; transcript newline scan via
indexOf; startup subagent backfill fingerprints the files it already checked
- pty attach: backpressure (pause past 1 MB unsent, resume under 256 KB)
- static: hashed assets served from their pre-compressed .br/.gz sibling
Client
- hidden tabs neither refetch on WS events nor poll (useLiveRefresh, panes,
lane cards, git header, changes panel, settings); no per-tab hourly
/updates/check (the server already checks)
- refetch storms throttled (workspace tree/session list 3 s, /api/run only on
a run-key change, notification pane lookup only when shown); WS reconnect
jitter; terminal retry backoff 1.5 → 30 s, stops on 1008
- heavier throttles for aggregates (15 s) and detail views; Monitor keepIfSame;
GET in-flight dedupe in request()
- lazy Dashboard/History, xterm (with the first terminal), lane modals, Sagi
(only while enabled); only the active locale loads; Workspace chunk
prefetched on a /workspace deep link
- Sagi: no work while disabled, pupil via CSS variables, memo avatar
- build: .br/.gz siblings, sourcemap hidden; service worker no longer caches
/assets/ (cache v3 drops the old one)
Tests: scripts/test-server.js drops the GIT_DIR-family variables a hook
exports, so a suite run from a linked worktree's pre-commit can no longer
commit into the real repository or set core.bare.

The Codex tab strip wrapped onto a second row while Claude Code's stayed
one scrollable row, so two panels that are meant to be twins read as
different components. Both now render the same ConfigTabBar — the
scroller lifted out of CcConfig, with the fade edges and chevrons that
only appear when there is somewhere to scroll. The deferral note in
CodexConfig that predicted this is gone with it.
The bar also carries role="tablist"/"tab" and aria-selected now: Codex
had them, Claude Code did not, and one of the two had to win.
Cursor's placeholder tab goes away with the machinery that served only
it — the optional Panel, the "soon" badge, the coming-soon card, and
their four i18n keys.
Element.scrollBy and friends move to test-setup: jsdom has none of them,
and the tab bar now calls them from both pages.
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.
