Documentation Map

Authoritative inventory of this repository's documentation surface: every doc that must be kept in sync, what each contains, and the stable anchors to grep for when placing an edit. Section line numbers drift — grep the anchor strings, don't trust line numbers.

Tier 1 — primary, always consider

README.md (English, canonical)

The source of truth most other docs mirror. Key sections:

• Feature table — rows like **Kanban Board**, **Transcript Cache**, **Pre-Existing Session Detection**, **Continuous Project Sync**. Grep a neighboring row label.
• Data-flow numbered list — bullets describing hook ingestion, the watchdog, periodic sweep, continuous sync. Grep Error detection watchdog / periodic server sweep.
• Agent State Machine + Session State Machine — two mermaid stateDiagram-v2 blocks. Grep stateDiagram-v2.
• Hook Events table — | Hook Type | Trigger | Dashboard Action |. Lists SessionStart…SessionEnd, plus synthetic Compaction, APIError, TurnDuration, ToolError, Interrupted. Grep ## Hook Events.
• Configuration / Environment Variables table — | Environment Variable | Default | Description |. Grep DASHBOARD_PORT or DASHBOARD_HOST.

Translations

This build ships English only. README-VN.md, README-CN.md and README-KO.md were removed, as were the zh and ko UI locales — do not recreate them. Standalone full translations of README.md. Every README change must be mirrored here at the corresponding section. Conventions:

• Keep in English/code: identifiers, env-var names, event-type names, awaiting_input_since, pendingInterrupt, "watchdog", fs.watch, model IDs, mermaid transition labels.
• Translate prose. "Waiting" → Đang chờ (vi) / 等待中 (zh) / 대기 중 (ko). "watchdog" often kept; in zh sometimes 看门狗.

ARCHITECTURE.md

• Module responsibility table — one row per source file (scripts/import-history.js, lib/transcript-cache.js, routes/hooks.js, server/index.js, …). Update the row whose file you changed. Grep the file path.
• Data-flow + sequence diagrams, state machines, Continuous background sync prose block (grep Continuous background sync).
• Event types line — grep | Event types |.
• ERD / schema mermaid + event_type "PreToolUse|PostToolUse|Stop|etc".

server/README.md

Backend reference: routes table, Error Detection Watchdog / User-Interrupt (Esc) Recovery / Continuous Project Sync sections, Agent/Session lifecycle mermaid diagrams, Environment Variables bash block under ## Deployment. Update for any backend behavior, route, state, env var, or background service.

client/README.md

Frontend reference: component list, Event Types table (WebSocket broadcast message types like session_created, agent_updated), session/agent status TypeScript unions. Update for new WS message types or client-facing behavior. NOT needed for server-only changes the UI already renders generically.

docs/HOOKS.md

Per-hook deep reference (### 1. SessionStart … ### 8. SessionEnd), the awaiting_input_since overlay rules, the "User interrupts (Esc) — no hook fires" section, transcript-derived sync. Update for any hook semantics or state behavior.

docs/DATABASE.md

Schema reference: sessions / agents / events tables, column docs, status CHECK constraints, lifecycle mermaid diagrams. Update for schema or state-machine changes.

docs/API.md

REST API reference (endpoints, params, example responses). Update for route/response changes. Pair with server/openapi*.js (code, not docs).

docs/PLUGINS.md

Plugin/marketplace docs incl. an Event Types enumeration line — keep it in sync with the canonical event-type list.

docs/I18N.md

i18n architecture: Supported languages list, supportedLngs, the 15 namespaces. Update when adding a language or namespace. Client UI strings live in client/src/i18n/locales/{en,zh,vi}/*.json (code).

Tier 3 — situational

• .env.example — every env var belongs here with a sane default + comment.
• INSTALL.md, SETUP.md — install/run commands.
• CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md — agent working guides; update when commands, file locations, or workflows change.
• docs/README.md — docs index; add a link when a new docs/*.md is created.
• vscode-extension/README.md, statusline/README.md — surface-specific; update only when that surface changes.

Consistency invariants

• The event-type set must match across: README hook table, ARCHITECTURE Event types line, docs/PLUGINS.md. When adding one, grep the existing set (e.g. TurnDuration) across all and add everywhere it appears.
• Env-var set must match across: README tables, server/README.md, .env.example, and any inline ARCHITECTURE mention.
• State-machine diagrams are duplicated across README, server/README.md and docs/DATABASE.md. A transition change touches all of them.
• Run scripts/doc-coverage.sh <term> to confirm a new identifier/var/event reached every doc that should mention it.
