Dashboard¶

The dashboard is the default view. It shows every active task plus a top bar with provider health and permit queue at a glance.

Top bar¶

A single line summarises external state.

Element	Meaning
`main ✓`	Main provider healthy
`main ✗→copilot`	Main failed over to a named fallback
`worker ✓`	Worker provider healthy
`daemon ✓ ×N` (yellow)	Daemon restarted N times recently
`daemon ⊘ ×N max` (red)	Auto-restart budget exhausted
`⚑ N pending` (yellow)	N permission escalations in the queue

Hidden when everything is green and the queue is empty.

Task list¶

One line per task: ID, current phase, elapsed time. A secondary "quiet" line appears underneath any task whose phase has produced no output for more than DEVLOOP_STUCK_THRESHOLD_MIN minutes — usually a hint that a permit is sitting in the queue.

Filter¶

Press / to enter fuzzy filter mode. The list narrows as you type. esc clears.

Side panels¶

Key	Effect
`s`	Toggle the SPEC panel — shows `.devloop/specs/<TASK-ID>.md` for the highlighted task
`d`	Toggle the DIFF panel — asynchronous `git diff <baseline>..HEAD` against the recorded `pre-commit` hash; falls back to `git diff HEAD` when no baseline is recorded

Both panels reload as you navigate the task list. DIFF loads in a background goroutine so the UI stays responsive on large diffs.

Keys¶

Key	Action
`↑ / ↓` (or `j / k`)	Move selection
`enter`	Open Focus Mode on the selected task
`space`	Same as `enter`
`:`	Open the Command Palette
`/`	Fuzzy filter
`s`	Toggle SPEC panel
`d`	Toggle DIFF panel
`r`	Refresh / re-read state
`q`	Quit
`?`	Show key help
