Dashboard

flock dashboard is the ratatui control tower over the in-tree multiplexer — the daily-driver view of agents, pressure, pane topology, and evolution archive.

Launch

flock multiplexer ensure
flock dashboard

Defaults:

  • Socket: ~/.config/flock/flock.sock (override with --socket)
  • Episodes: .flock/episodes
  • Archive: .flock/archive

Keybindings

KeyAction
j / kSelect agent up/down
EnterAttach to selected pane (Ctrl+Q to detach)
rRefresh agents + layout snapshot
qQuit

Headless observability

The dashboard writes ~/.config/flock/statusline.json on each refresh. MCP tool flock_read_statusline (see MCP tools) reads this snapshot for external monitors.

CI smoke

Dashboard client code is tested against a mock Unix socket:

cargo test -p flock-dashboard --test integration

Included in ./scripts/verify.sh.
