The repo shipped five install/publish surfaces that nothing in the project builds, tests or documents as supported any more. Each one carried its own stale docs, and the Docker/Podman path additionally described a Dockerfile whose COPY of statusline/ would have broken the build the moment that directory went away. Removed: vscode-extension/ (16 files, marketplace extension for an ID we do not own); statusline/ (3 files, standalone CLI statusline); the repo-root landing/wiki PWA assets (sw.js, manifest.json, robots.txt, sitemap.xml, og-image.svg, favicon.svg, fonts/ - 17 files for pages that no longer exist); .superpowers/ (4 files of scratch brainstorm state, already covered by .gitignore:55); and the container publish path (Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, .dockerignore, 5 Makefile targets, 2 npm scripts). Kept deliberately - these are about the USER's containers, not ours: scripts/install-hooks.js container detection and AGENTHUB_ALLOW_CONTAINER_HOOKS (issue #193), server/lib/lane-detect.js docker-compose service detection, server/data/profile-templates/postgres-compose/, server/lib/stage-detect.js 'docker push' detection, the host.docker.internal Prometheus notes, the Config Explorer's reads of the user's own ~/.claude/statusline.py, and .devcontainer/ (its docker-in-docker feature is dropped since it existed only to build the removed Dockerfile). Docs follow the code: ARCHITECTURE.md loses the VS Code, statusline and container sections plus two dead TOC anchors, and its PWA section is rewritten from three PWAs to one; INSTALL.md, SETUP.md, docs/DEPLOYMENT.md, server/README.md, client/README.md, docs/README.md, docs/HOOKS.md and docs/DATABASE.md drop the same. The Makefile target count in ARCHITECTURE.md is corrected 25 -> 17 (it was already stale).

Dev Container (optional)
A ready-to-use, opt-in development environment for AgentHub.
It is used only when you explicitly choose it — it changes nothing about
host-based development (npm run dev / npm start still work exactly as before).
When to use it
Use it if you want a consistent, batteries-included toolchain without installing Node, build tools, or Python on your machine — or if you're on a GitHub Codespace.
How to open it
- VS Code: install the Dev Containers extension, then run "Dev Containers: Reopen in Container" (Command Palette).
- GitHub Codespaces: Code → Create codespace on this branch.
The first build runs .devcontainer/post-create.sh, which installs all workspace
dependencies (npm run setup).
What's inside
| Component | Detail |
|---|---|
| Base image | mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/javascript-node:22 |
| Native toolchain | build-essential + python3 so better-sqlite3 compiles |
| Python | python3 / python for scripts/expand-ts-module-docs.py |
| sqlite3 CLI | inspect the dashboard DB during development |
| Features | GitHub CLI |
| Forwarded ports | 4820 (server API + WebSocket), 5173 (Vite client) |
| Editor | ESLint + Prettier (format on save), Vitest, YAML, Tailwind |
Everyday commands
npm run dev # server on :4820 + Vite client on :5173
npm start # production-style server (serves client/dist)
npm run test:server # node --test
npm run test:client # vitest
npm run openapi:yaml # regenerate openapi.yaml from the live spec
Claude Code hooks are HOST-side (important — issue #193)
Claude Code runs on your host, so its hooks must point at a handler path that exists on the host. This container therefore:
- does not bind-mount
~/.claude, and - does not install hooks —
scripts/install-hooks.jsrefuses to run inside a container (it would write a container-internal handler path into your host settings and break every host hook withMODULE_NOT_FOUND).
Install hooks on your host instead:
npm run install-hooks # on the HOST
The host hook handler POSTs to http://localhost:4820, which this container
forwards — so a host-installed hook reaches the containerized dashboard.
Escape hatch: if you genuinely run Claude Code inside this same container, set
AGENTHUB_ALLOW_CONTAINER_HOOKS=1beforenpm run install-hooks.
Not supported in the container
Electron desktop builds (npm run desktop:*) need a host with a display and are
host-only.
