#406 was the JS-split refactor: pull shared helpers into
common.js (step 1), pull the flow-only IIFEs into flow.js
(step 2), then rename the legacy combined entry from app.js
to tabs.js (step 3 — this commit) to reflect that the bundle
now owns the dashboard tabs surface only.
What moved:
- `frontend/packages/dashboard/src/app.js` → `tabs.js`
- `build.mjs` entry: `src('app.js')` → `src('tabs.js')`;
output is now `static/tabs.js`
- `index.html` `<script>` src: `/static/app.js` →
`/static/tabs.js`; the FL0W-section comment retouched
- `flow.html` reference from `/static/app.js`-as-tabs to
`/static/tabs.js`; notif + offscreen-inbox comments rewired
to point at the correct owners (common.js for NOTIF,
flow.js for renderInbox)
- `common.js`, `flow.js`, `tabs.js` headers: scrub stale
"app.js" references; document that #406 steps 2 + 3 are
done and both pages import directly from common.js
- `dashboard.css` comments: every "by app.js" → "by tabs.js"
- `docs/web-ui.md`, `docs/conventions.md`: legacy
`assets/app.js` → `assets/tabs.js` (the path prefix is
itself stale from a much-earlier rename, but consistent
with the rest of those docs)
- `CLAUDE.md` file map: refresh the dashboard package's
src/ and dist/ layouts to reflect the post-split shape
(tabs.js, flow.js, common.js, stream-worker.js)
What did NOT move:
- `frontend/packages/agent/src/app.js` (per-agent UI entry)
stays named `app.js` — it's a separate package, has only
one entry point, no split happened there
- The two "no-op when target absent" guards in renderContainers
and renderQuestions are kept as belt-and-suspenders for any
future page that adds tabs.js without the corresponding
sections; comments updated to note this rather than the
pre-split flow.html reason
Functional behaviour identical; this is a pure rename + comment
sweep.
mara: "the 'timestamp from -> to' part is long enough to warrant
its own line. then the actual messages can be rendered (nearly)
full width."
Confirmed in the layout — previously `.live .msgrow .msg-body`
sat inline with `flex: 1 1 0`, eating whatever the chips left.
With a 14:23:42 timestamp + agent names + arrows that was ~30ch
of prefix; long bodies wrapped awkwardly.
One-line CSS fix: `flex: 1 1 100%` on `.msg-body` forces it to
wrap to its own flex line in the existing `flex-wrap: wrap`
container. Metadata chips stay on the row above; body takes the
full width down to the row's content edge.
`min-width: 0` retained so `word-break: break-word` keeps
working. Reply rows keep their `padding-left: 1.2em` border-left
indent — the body lands within that frame, matching the visual
"this is a reply" nesting.
Out of scope but worth knowing:
- consecutive-message grouping (one header per agent run) was
the second design option I floated; happy to land it as a
follow-up if reading still feels chatty.
- timestamp-on-hover was the third; skipping unless asked.
mara: "why can this even be an issue?" — fair. The SCH3DUL3S
tab was added to index.html's chrome in #459 but flow.html's
parallel tab strip was never updated to match. The flow page
operator hit a dead end going back to the schedules pane.
One-line fix: copy the same `<a class="tab" href="/#schedules"
role="tab" data-tab="schedules">` link from index.html into
flow.html's chrome, positioned between SYST3M and FL0W to match
the dashboard ordering. Count pill stays hidden (flow.js
doesn't sync `schedulesState` — same reason SW4RM/Y3R C4LL/
SYST3M pills also stay hidden on this page).
mara confirmed target editing on q #195 ("also let me edit targets").
Damocles wired `targets_add` / `targets_remove` onto PATCH
/api/schedules/{id} in #478. UI side: the schedule edit form's
read-only targets callout becomes a multi-select checkbox box
(same chip styling as the new-schedule form) pre-checked for
currently-active targets.
Submit logic:
- diff new selection against `originalActiveTargets` to populate
`targets_add` (checked, not originally active) and
`targets_remove` (originally active, now unchecked)
- only include each key in the PATCH body when non-empty
- guard against zero-target submission with a clear alert
pointing the operator at `✕ cancel all` as the intended path
- already-active targets that aren't in the live candidate list
(e.g. a since-destroyed container) still surface so the
operator can intentionally drop them
Note (re-add semantics): backend's replace-on-conflict drops
the cancelled-target tombstone + history on re-add — per the
design discussion with damocles, operator intent on re-adding
reads as "fresh start, target is active again." UI copy below
the chip row reflects this.
Carry persistence extended to the `targets` array so the
checkbox state survives a state-poll re-render mid-edit;
listens on `change` in addition to `input` for checkbox events.
argus 🟡 nit on #480 — the `if (!rows.length)` block sat at +6
inside the paintAtomic callback, but the `const ul` + for loop
underneath stayed at the pre-wrap +4. Code was correct, just
visually inconsistent. Re-indented the whole callback body
uniformly.
renderScheduleNewForm has the same cosmetic mis-indent but its
body is ~100 lines; leaving that for a separate sweep so the
diff stays focused.
argus flagged + mara confirmed: operators see a brief "blink" on
every poll cycle when refreshState fires. Root cause for the
async-fetch sections (refreshReminders, refreshSchedules): the
`await resp.json()` yield is a paint opportunity the browser can
take BEFORE the renderer's `root.innerHTML = ''` + `root.append`
land. The "loading…" placeholder (or the previous render's stale
content) may briefly show through.
Fix: render off-DOM into a `DocumentFragment`, then atomically
swap into the live root with `replaceChildren`. The browser only
sees the new content; no intermediate empty state is reachable.
Added `paintAtomic(liveRoot, build)` helper near the top of the
IIFE — minimal-churn pattern where each renderer's existing
`root.append(...)` body carries over unchanged, just wrapped in
a builder callback that receives the fragment as its `root`
parameter.
Applied to the async-fetch sections argus's note + mara's report
specifically called out:
- `refreshReminders` (both http-error + catch paths)
- `renderReminders`
- `refreshSchedules` (both error paths)
- `renderScheduleNewForm` (carry read still happens against the
live root BEFORE the swap so mid-typing values are preserved)
- `renderSchedulesList`
Kept scope tight to the async paths. The sync renderers
(renderContainers / renderTombstones / etc.) run inside the
same JS turn as refreshState's other sync work, so the browser
can't paint between their clear+populate steps — no flash to fix
there. If mara still sees blink on those sections after this
lands, extending the pattern is a clean follow-up.
docs/web-ui.md no change needed; this is an implementation
detail of the existing managed-section render machinery.
argus 🟡 note on #471 — values rendered into the button flash are
all server-side ints/bool today, but textContent + element children
is the safer pattern if a stringy field ever lands in FireNowReport.
Captures original children on enter so error paths can restore
faithfully (the previous innerHTML round-trip would have already
lost any nested element structure).
damocles's #472 returns `{ ok, failed, missing, one_shot_consumed }`
from the fire-now endpoint. Parse the response and flash the
per-target outcome on the button itself for ~1.5s before
refreshSchedules() repaints — operator sees the result
immediately without a modal alert or an `/api/schedules`
re-fetch round-trip.
Button label transitions:
↯ fire now → ◐ firing… → ↯ fired: 3 ok, 1 missing — consumed
(green flash, then row refresh)
Operator wants to trigger a scheduled prompt immediately
instead of waiting for the next interval. Adds a `↯ fire now`
button on every active schedule row, next to `✕ cancel all`.
Semantics (per design discussion with damocles):
- recurring schedules → out-of-band pulse, `next_fire_at_unix`
untouched; the regular cadence keeps firing on the original
schedule. Operator gets an extra fan-out, not a phase shift.
- one-shots → consumed after the manual fire. Operator's
intent reads as "the scheduled time was wrong, send NOW";
leaving the original time would be surprising.
Confirm dialog spells out the recurring-vs-one-shot
difference up front so the operator knows what they're about
to do. Button is disabled when every target is already
cancelled (nothing to fire).
Talks to `POST /api/schedules/{id}/fire-now` (damocles is
wiring the backend in parallel). Mauve styling distinguishes
it from cancel (red) and submit (amber); fits the existing
btn pattern.
docs/web-ui.md updated.
Per damocles's PATCH /api/schedules/{id} backend (#475), each
non-cancelled schedule row gets a `✎ edit` button that toggles
an inline form pre-filled with current values. Editable:
- body (textarea)
- description (blank to clear)
- next-fire (datetime-local)
- interval (shared composer from #466 — all-zero flips to one-shot)
Targets stay immutable per the design call with damocles:
per-target last-result history is keyed on them; cancel + new
schedule is the documented retarget workaround. The form
surfaces the active target list as a read-only note explaining
this.
Submit semantics — the form computes a PATCH diff against the
original schedule and only includes keys for fields that
actually changed. Blank description → `null` (clear), all-zero
interval on a recurring schedule → `null` (flip to one-shot).
No-op submit (no fields changed) just closes the edit form.
Refactored the interval composer (#466) into a shared
`buildIntervalComposer({ label, namePrefix, initialSeconds })`
helper so the new-schedule and edit-schedule forms use the same
chip/d/h/m/s/preview widget. New-schedule form behavior
unchanged; edit-form input names are prefixed `edit_interval_`
to avoid FormData collisions when both happen to mount.
State survives state-poll re-renders via `editingSchedules`
(Set of ids being edited) + `scheduleEditCarry` (per-id
mid-edit values) — same pattern the new-schedule form uses
with `readScheduleFormCarry`.
Replaces the single raw-seconds field in the SCH3DUL3D PR0MPTS
creation form with a structured composer:
- Preset chip row (1m / 5m / 15m / 30m / 1h / 6h / 12h / 1d / 7d
/ one-shot) that fills the parts inputs in one click
- Four small d/h/m/s number inputs combined into total seconds
on submit (all-zero = one-shot, preserving the backend null
semantic)
- Live "↻ every …" preview using the existing fmtDuration helper
so the operator sees what they're about to queue
Carry semantics extended to round-trip the split fields across
state-poll re-renders; legacy `interval` carry still honoured if
an older bundle is in the page.
Docs (web-ui.md) updated to describe the new composer.
mara wanted one place for everything that fires at a future time.
The QU3U3D R3M1ND3RS section moves out of the SYST3M tab and
lands at the bottom of the SCH3DUL3S tab, below QU3U3D SCH3DUL3S.
Pure layout change — refreshReminders() and /api/reminders
unchanged; the section just lives under a different parent now.
Reminders don't contribute to the SCH3DUL3S pill count (kept as
"active schedules" only — reminders are self-scheduled and high
cardinality; adding them would make the pill noisy).
docs/web-ui.md picks up a SCH3DUL3S tab section (the previous
docs lumped the schedules subsection under SYST3M, but the tab
has been separate since #459); reminders subsection follows
schedules in the same tab.
frontend for the #444 scheduled-prompts feature. backend is
already merged (PR #454 + sibling commits): GET /api/schedules
(snapshot), POST /api/schedules (operator-direct submit), POST
/api/schedules/{id}/cancel (whole or per-target).
new chrome
- SCH3DUL3S tab in the dashboard tab strip, between SYST3M and
the FL0W link. count pill shows the number of schedules with
at least one still-active target.
- pane has two sections: N3W SCH3DUL3 (creation form) +
QU3U3D SCH3DUL3S (list of cards).
creation form
- targets multi-select rendered as chip-style checkboxes;
candidates pulled from containersState plus the special
`operator` and `manager` recipients.
- prompt body textarea (required, non-empty trim).
- first-fire datetime-local input, defaulted to "5 minutes from
now" so the form has a sensible pre-filled future timestamp.
- optional interval (seconds) input — blank = one-shot.
- optional description (one-liner shown on the schedule card).
- mid-typing carry: re-rendering the form preserves field values
+ checkbox state. the operator never loses what they were
typing when the schedule list refreshes underneath them.
- POSTs SchedulePromptPayload JSON to /api/schedules; on success
re-fetches the list to surface the new row.
schedules list
- one card per schedule, active rows first (sorted by
next_fire_at_unix), cancelled tail dimmed.
- header: id, source chip (`operator` or `approval` — reuses
the rebuild-queue rqe-source styling for visual consistency),
next-fire countdown / overdue label, recurring vs one-shot
badge, owner.
- body: prompt text in a styled <pre>-ish block with linkified
path references.
- per-target table: target name, last fire age, last result,
per-row cancel button.
- whole-schedule "✕ cancel all" button.
- per-target cancel posts { targets: ["name"] }; cancel-all
posts no body (== cancel whole row).
no-SSE refresh
- the backend doesn't emit SchedulesChanged dashboard events
yet (damocles flagged this as a follow-up PR C). list
re-fetches on:
- tab activation (so switching to SCH3DUL3S never lands stale)
- cold load via refreshState
- after every submit + cancel POST
the operator's typical interactions all force a refresh; the
remaining gap (worker fires while you're staring at the tab)
is the natural argument for PR C.

argus nit on #456: the CSS comment claimed "The body adds
data-spw=<px> once persisted" — that's leftover from a prior
design and no such attribute is ever set. The actual flow is
localStorage → JS reads on Panel.bind → sets --side-panel-w via
inline style. Replaced the misleading line with an accurate
description of the persistence path.
two related flyout improvements — both small, single PR.
#450 — full-height inbox
dropped the .inbox max-height: 24em cap. the side-panel-body
already provides overflow: auto, so the cap was just clamping the
inbox list short of the available panel height on tall viewports.
the inbox now fills as much of the panel as it needs and the
panel itself scrolls.
#451 — drag-to-resize side panel
added a 6px hit-strip on the drawer's left edge. mousedown/move/
up handlers track the drag and update --side-panel-w on the
drawer; the CSS variable defaults to min(760px, 94vw) (preserving
pre-#451 behaviour) and is clamped to [320px, 96vw] so a bad
stored value can never wedge the drawer off-screen.
ergonomics
- handle is invisible at rest, mauve glow on hover + during drag
so the affordance is discoverable but doesn't compete with the
2px mauve border-left for the visual boundary.
- body.side-panel-resizing class forces ew-resize cursor + kills
user-select page-wide so the cursor doesn't flip back to
default the moment it leaves the 6px band during a fast drag.
- final width persists to localStorage (key
hyperhive:side-panel-width) so it survives reload. window
resize re-clamps so a stored width that exceeds the new 96vw
shrinks accordingly.
- handle is a separator role with aria-orientation: vertical +
aria-label for screen readers.
files
- frontend/packages/dashboard/src/dashboard.css
- .inbox: dropped max-height (#450).
- .side-panel-drawer: width = var(--side-panel-w, min(760px,

- frontend/packages/dashboard/src/common.js
- Panel.bind now also calls applyStoredWidth + bindResize.
- resize handle is prepended to the drawer at bind time so
every flyout (inbox, file preview, diff, journal) gets it.

- npm run build --workspace=@hive/dashboard clean. CSS 40.9kb →
41.3kb. app.js + flow.js grew ~0.5kb each (resize handler).
- browser smoke test isn't possible from inside iris's container;
the resize math is straightforward (width = innerWidth -
clientX, clamped) and the CSS variable + localStorage
persistence are standard patterns.
mara on #453: address argus's two yellow nits.
bfcache restore gap
previously openStream registered a pagehide unsubscribe but never
re-subscribed on pageshow, so a bfcache restore left the consumer's
onmessage bound but no events flowing.
fix: maintain a registry of live subscriptions (Map<url, target,
route>). bind page lifecycle hooks once:
- pagehide: unsubscribe every URL, drop route listeners, invalidate
the cached SharedWorker port (it may be collected if all other
tabs closed while this page was frozen).
- pageshow { persisted: true }: get a fresh port via getSharedPort
(creates a new SharedWorker if needed), re-attach every route
listener, re-subscribe to every URL. target.readyState resets to
CONNECTING so the worker's synthetic open after subscribe fires
the consumer's onStreamOpen and triggers a refresh.
worker bundle format
stream-worker.js was bundled as format: 'esm' but loaded as
classic via new SharedWorker(url, name). today's worker has no
imports/exports so the ESM bundle is syntactically valid as a
classic script; argus's concern was that a future contributor
adding an import would silently break things.
fix: switched build.mjs to format: 'iife'. esbuild now wraps the
worker output in (() => { ... })(); any future import statement
would surface as a build error rather than ship broken code.
verified output starts with the IIFE wrapper.
other
- target.close() now reads _sharedPort lazily so close-after-bfcache
(port may have been recreated) doesn't try to postMessage on a
stale reference.
- _activeSubs.delete on close keeps the registry honest if a
consumer ever explicitly closes a stream (none do today, but the
shape stays correct).
validation: npm run build clean. stream-worker.js: 1.8 kb → 1.9 kb
(IIFE wrapper). common.js bfcache logic adds ~30 LOC inside the
existing module — bundle deltas negligible.
mara on #448: "firefox disconnects bc of too many tabs. needs bg
service worker". picked SharedWorker over full Service Worker:
smaller change, addresses the actual problem (shared connection
across tabs), no offline-cache scope creep.
architecture
per-tab `new EventSource('/dashboard/stream')` replaced with a
SharedWorker-backed facade. one SharedWorker instance per origin
holds ONE upstream EventSource and fans every server-sent event
out to every connected tab via MessagePort. N hyperhive tabs now
share ONE backend connection, immune to Firefox's per-tab SSE
throttling under many-open-tabs pressure.
wire protocol (port.postMessage):
tab → worker
{ kind: 'subscribe', url: '/dashboard/stream' }
{ kind: 'unsubscribe', url: '/dashboard/stream' }
worker → tab
{ kind: 'open', url }
{ kind: 'message', url, data: '<raw SSE data>' }
{ kind: 'error', url }
subscription tracking is per (port, url). a late subscriber that
joins after the upstream is already OPEN gets a synthetic 'open'
event so its onStreamOpen handler still runs (triggers the
snapshot re-sync that recovers events lost during the join gap).
unsubscribing the last port for a URL closes the upstream
EventSource so we don't leak idle streams.
files
- frontend/packages/dashboard/src/stream-worker.js: new — the
worker. multi-URL multiplexing via Map<url, {es, ports}>.
- frontend/packages/dashboard/src/common.js: new exported helper
openStream(url) — returns an EventSource-shaped facade backed
by the SharedWorker. graceful fallback to direct EventSource
when SharedWorker is unavailable.
- frontend/packages/dashboard/src/app.js: replaces the inline
new EventSource('/dashboard/stream') with openStream.
- frontend/packages/dashboard/src/flow.js: passes
streamFactory: openStream to termCreate so the broker
terminal's SSE goes through the worker too.
- frontend/packages/shared/src/terminal.js: accepts an optional
streamFactory(url) option. default unchanged — non-dashboard
consumers (per-agent UI) keep using direct EventSource.
- frontend/packages/dashboard/build.mjs: new esbuild entry for
stream-worker.js → dist/static/stream-worker.js (separate
bundle because SharedWorker scripts run in a different global
scope and can't be inlined into app.js).
scope kept tight
- per-agent UI's /events/stream stays on direct EventSource. the
agent UI's tab count per agent is typically 1; SharedWorker
helps when you have N tabs hitting the SAME stream and the
per-agent stream URLs differ. if mara wants the agent UI to
share its workers too it's a separate small PR.
- no offline-cache, no push notifications — those need full
Service Worker; explicit non-goal here per the design Q.
validation
- npm run build --workspace=@hive/dashboard clean.

- app.js: 154 kb → 158 kb. flow.js: 29.9 kb → 32 kb.

onopen / onerror surface the existing IIFE consumers use.
#446 (agent selection + bulk actions) already merged, which
removed the per-card R3ST4RT/ST0P/etc buttons entirely. So the
frontend half of the original #445 (lift the c.is_manager gate
around the per-card stop button) is now redundant — there ARE
no per-card buttons left, and the selection bar's ST0P button is
already manager-aware.
What remains and what this commit ships: the host-side guard in
`dashboard.rs::post_kill` that rejects stop on the manager with
"kill: refusing to stop the manager". Removed.
Rationale: hive-c0re owns the dashboard server, so stopping the
manager has no dashboard disruption. Per-agent approvals submitted
by other sub-agents still process through the host-side approval
queue without the manager up, and operator-driven meta-input
updates work from the dashboard either way. The MCP-surface
self-kill guard in `manager_server.rs::ManagerRequest::Kill` stays
in place: a manager calling Kill on its own container is
self-suicide mid-call, not a legitimate operator action; the
guard prevents that footgun.
Destroy / purge guards (`actions.rs:578` — "refusing to destroy
the manager") stay in place; mara's ask was specifically about
stop, and destroying the manager is a much bigger blast radius.
