nntrivi2001 67edda77eb feat(lanes): make the pipeline map track a skill's real progress
A lane's pipeline map only ever moved when a skill remembered to call
`ccam stage`, and the ship-feature template shipped with no detection rules
at all — so a lane driven by Superpowers skills sat at whatever stage it
last declared, and the `gates` node was never declared by anything.

Detection (`detect` rules on each node) now covers the Superpowers skill
invocations and the `ccam`/`gh` commands the ship-feature-lane skill
actually runs. It stays a safety net, not the mechanism: forward-only,
never `done`, never overriding a declaration. Two rules were deliberately
left out — `git diff` on `review` (this repo's own tests record it pinning
a lane at `review` on a real session) and anything on `merged`/`done`.

Stage vocabulary grows to 50 names over the same 16 nodes, following
Shipyard's PHASES shape: sub-states like `migration-collision`,
`e2e-scoped` and `gate-blocked` say WHY a lane sits on a node without the
map growing a node per reason. Every alias has a source — the skill
declares it, `default.json` uses it, or Shipyard's PHASES lists it.

Two silent failures fixed along the way:

- `lane.stages` is keyed by the raw declared string, so a stage declared
  under an alias lost its `--evidence` and rendered amber instead of
  green. `stageRecords` resolves each key onto its node.
- `ccam stage <typo>` stored fine and then rendered nowhere. It now warns
  on stderr while still exiting 0.

`ccam lanes pipeline` closes the gap that made all of this invisible: a
lane could only be assigned a template at creation, and no screen in the
web UI offers the choice, so every lane added from "+ Add lane" was stuck
on `default`'s 8 nodes. An unknown template id is now refused rather than
silently falling back to `default` on read.

Also merges the repo's own `ship-feature` skill into the Superpowers
workflow: it delegates planning/TDD/review/verification instead of
restating them, and declares a stage at each phase.

Claude Code Monitor

Internal SmartGift build. Local-first dashboard for Claude Code: hooks POST every tool call to an Express + SQLite server, a React UI updates over WebSocket, and lanes track parallel agent work through a pipeline.

Internal build — all rights reserved.

What it does

  • Sessions, agents, events. Everything Claude Code emits, recorded and searchable: tool calls, token usage, cost, subagent trees, transcripts.
  • Lanes. One lane per working directory, surviving session restarts. A lane moves through pipeline stages and the dashboard shows where it is.
  • Stage detection. The stage is inferred from the tool stream, so a session that never calls ccam stage still shows progress — rendered dashed amber and never as done, because an inference is not evidence.
  • Run Claude from the browser. Spawn a session in a lane's directory, stream its output, send follow-ups, resume any past session.
  • Analytics, alerts, Kanban and a workflow view, plus an MCP server and a CLI.

Requirements

Node >= 20 (engines in package.json). Node 24 is what the test suites are verified on — node 25 currently breaks 6 server tests through a better-sqlite3 ABI mismatch and 20 client tests through a global localStorage change.

Install and run

npm run setup          # root, client and vscode-extension dependencies
npm run build          # builds the client into client/dist
npm start              # serves the built client and the API on :4820

Open http://localhost:4820.

Development, with hot reload:

npm run dev            # server on :4820, Vite client on :5173

DASHBOARD_PORT overrides the port. postinstall writes the Claude Code hook entries that feed the dashboard.

The CLI

ccam is linked by npm run setup; otherwise call node bin/ccam.js.

ccam status            # is the dashboard up
ccam start             # start it in the background and wait for healthy
ccam sessions          # recent sessions
ccam lanes             # lanes with stage and progress
ccam stage <name>      # declare the current lane's stage
ccam tail              # live event feed

ccam --help lists the rest.

Lanes

A lane is a working directory the dashboard watches. Two kinds:

  • adopted — a directory you already had. The dashboard only reads it; it is never reset or deleted.
  • managed — a git worktree the dashboard created under LANES_ROOT. It owns the full lifecycle and may reset or remove it, behind a three-check destroy guard and a counted preflight the caller has to echo back.
ccam lanes add --cwd /path/to/repo --title "My feature"    # adopt
ccam lanes add --repo /path/to/repo --slug my-feature      # managed worktree

The declared stage comes from ccam stage. The inferred stage comes from tool events and expires after DETECTION_TTL_MS (default 5 minutes), so a lane can move backwards between work sessions. Detection never writes the declared stage, and an inferred node never renders as done.

A lane can also run its own application stack, isolated per lane, when its repository declares a profile at <repo>/.ccam/profile/ — a profile.env of declarations plus shell hooks the dashboard calls. Each lane gets a slot, and its ports and per-lane directories derive from it:

ccam lanes up          # boot the stack of the lane owning this directory
ccam lanes runtime     # slot, ports, service health
ccam lanes logs api    # tail a service log
ccam lanes down

Services are fully detached, so restarting the dashboard never stops a running lane. This is resource namespacing on the host, not a container: lanes run as the same user and share the network.

docs/LANES.md has the pipeline model, the destroy guard, the preflight contract, the Workspace page, GET /api/lanes/:id/git, and the full runtime/profile contract.

Tests

npm run test:server    # node:test
npm run test:client    # Vitest

Both must be green before a commit; the pre-commit hook runs them plus Prettier.
