File contents

IJFW Dashboard

Local observability dashboard at http://localhost:37891. Shows observations from all platforms (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini) in real time via SSE.

Commands

ijfw dashboard start    # bind port 37891, open browser (unless $CI)
ijfw dashboard stop     # send shutdown, clean up PID + port files
ijfw dashboard status   # show port, uptime, observation count

How it works

Port 37891 by default; walks to 37900 if busy. Actual port written to .ijfw/dashboard.port.
Reads ~/.ijfw/observations.jsonl (shared ledger across all platforms).
SSE delivers new observations within 150ms of ledger append.
Single-file HTML viewer -- no React, no build step, no external network.
localhost-gated: external requests return 403.
