Live activity

Path: /live (also the dashboard's default landing page when boards are not configured)

A real-time view of every reachable daemon: which agents are online, what they're doing right now, and the last handful of tasks. Driven by an SSE snapshot from /api/live/stream.

What you'll see

• Top bar: peer chips (one per dashboard.daemons[] entry plus auto-discovered mesh peers). Click to filter.
• Agent grid: one card per agent, sized by recent activity. The card shows: status (idle / busy / error), current task preview, last message timestamp, queue depth.
• Recent tasks rail (right): a chronological feed of completed and in-flight tasks across the fleet.
• Channel badges on each card: which Telegram/Discord/Slack/WhatsApp/GitLab bindings the agent owns.

The view is "skim friendly" by design — scan the grid, spot the agent that's stuck, click into the per-agent page to investigate.

What you can do

• Click an agent card to open /admin/agents/<id> (the per-agent page).
• Click a task in the rail to open the same page scrolled to that task in the history.
• Filter by peer via the top-bar chips when running multi-node mesh.
• Watch the SSE stream in dev tools: every change pushes a delta — no polling.

Common tasks

You want to…	Do this
See which channel routed a message	Hover the channel badge on the agent card — tooltip shows the route + chat id
Know if a peer is unreachable	Peer chip turns red. Hover for the last error
Tail the daemon log instead	The CLI is faster: agentx daemon logs -f

Troubleshooting

• Empty grid. Check dashboard.daemonUrl resolves and the daemon is up (curl $DAEMON/health). If the daemon is on another machine, set dashboard.daemons[] (see config schema).
• Stuck "loading…" spinner. The SSE stream couldn't connect. Look in the browser console for CORS errors; if you bound the daemon to a Tailscale IP, the dashboard's daemonUrl must be the same scheme/host.
• Cards missing channel badges. channels.<name>.enabled is true but no routes[] reach the agent. Check agentx channel list or the Admin → Channels tab.

Implementation pointers

• Page module: src/daemon/ui/pages/live.ts (skeleton + JS)
• API: GET /api/live/stream (Server-Sent Events)
• The live snapshot is computed from the same data the agentx daemon status and agentx daemon watch CLIs surface — single source of truth.
