I've been using Claude Code heavily for autonomous agent workflows and hit a consistent pain point: zero visibility into what's running, what's stuck, and how close to context overflow each session is.

So I built claudedash. One command:

    npx -y claudedash@latest start

- Live Kanban: pending → in_progress → completed → blocked - Context health % per session (last-message tokens / model max) - Worktree observability (per-branch agent status) - Plan Mode: reads queue.md, renders dependency graph, syncs execution.log - MCP server: so Claude can query its own dashboard - Cost tracker, hook event log, session history

Technical notes for the curious: - Fastify + chokidar for the server - SSE (one shared connection via module-level singleton) - Server-side mtime-based caching (no unnecessary file reads) - Static Next.js export, no server rendering - Zero telemetry, fully local

The context health feature was trickier than expected — the naive approach of summing all input_tokens gives wildly wrong numbers. The correct approach is using only the last message's token counts.

Happy to answer questions about the implementation or design decisions.
