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.

What broke (code audit, untested on a Mac):
- Without systemd the server is always spawned from inside a Claude Code
session, so it inherited CLAUDECODE, CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID,
CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT, ... and tmux handed them to every lane pane (a codex
pane even resolved as `claude` in `agenthub`'s harness check).
- The ~/.local/bin/agenthub launcher pinned a versioned node path that
`brew upgrade`/nvm deletes, leaving the CLI dead until the next bootstrap.
- A discovery entry left over from before a reboot could name a recycled pid,
so the bootstrap's fast path believed a dashboard was live and
stopDashboard could signal an unrelated process.
- Lanes were stored under the typed cwd; macOS reports /private/tmp and the
on-disk case, so sessions never bound to a /tmp or differently-cased lane.
What changed:
- server/index.js deletes a DENYLIST of parent-session variables at startup;
user config (CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK, ANTHROPIC_*) stays.
- linkCli's launcher falls back to `node` on PATH when the pinned one is gone.
- liveServers ignores entries whose startedAt predates this boot (60 s margin).
- createLane and POST /api/lanes/ensure store/look up fs.realpathSync.native
of an existing cwd; the liveness reaper also tries the realpath. Existing
rows are untouched.
- session-liveness gains an exec seam so the darwin ps+lsof branch is tested.
- plugin-doctor names ~/.zshrc on darwin; INSTALL.md gains a macOS section
with the Mac verification checklist, mirrored in both READMEs and PLUGINS.md.
No launchd, no macOptionIsMeta, engines stays >=20.
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.
