name: spk-admin-dashboard description: "Open or report the Spec Kitty dashboard. Use for dashboard URL, localhost daemon metadata in .kittify/.dashboard, --open, --kill, or status views."
spk-admin-dashboard
Open the dashboard directly or show the user its URL. Do not treat the dashboard as a generic status abstraction.
Flow
- Prefer
spec-kitty dashboard --openso lifecycle validation checks project, token, health, and daemon state before showing a URL. - If
.kittify/.dashboardexists, treat it as diagnostic metadata only; do not show the URL until validation succeeds. - Use
spec-kitty dashboard --jsononly for machine-readable mission rows. - Use
spec-kitty dashboard --killonly when the user asks to stop it.
Reference
Read references/dashboard-daemon.md before diagnosing dashboard metadata,
ports, tokens, or stale PID behavior.
Rule
The dashboard is a localhost daemon, not a cloud page. Prefer
spec-kitty dashboard --open over manually trusting recorded metadata.
