# Ops Dash

Ops Dash routes user input to operational dashboard actions like briefing, inbox, incidents, projects, revenue, and deploy status. Use it when you need to navigate an ops command center instead of re-rendering the dashboard.

**Install:**

```bash
npx degit https://github.com/Lifecycle-Innovations-Limited/claude-ops/tree/main/claude-ops/skills/ops-dash ~/.claude/skills/ops-dash
```

## README

# OPS > DASH — Interactive Command Center

Load `ops-rules` before acting. Public repo (no personal data). Outbound: one draft → one approval → one send. If `AskUserQuestion` / `Workflow` are missing, follow Rule 10 in `ops-rules` (Hermes: numbered options / two-turn Telegram card; `delegate_task`).

## Runtime Context

Before rendering, load available context:

1. **Preferences**: Read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace}/preferences.json`
   - `owner` — personalize the dashboard header greeting
   - `timezone` — display timestamps correctly in status indicators

2. **Daemon health**: Read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR}/daemon-health.json`
   - If `action_needed` is not null → show a warning banner at the top of the dashboard before the menu

## Agent Teams support

If `CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1` is set, use **Agent Teams** when loading dashboard data in parallel. This enables:

- Agents share context and can coordinate mid-flight
- You can steer priorities in real-time
- Agents report progress as they complete

**Team setup** (only when flag is enabled):

```
TeamCreate("dash-team")
Agent(team_name="dash-team", name="infra-loader", prompt="Gather ECS health, Vercel status, and CI pipeline state")
Agent(team_name="dash-team", name="comms-loader", prompt="Gather unread counts across all configured channels")
Agent(team_name="dash-team", name="projects-loader", prompt="Gather GSD phase, git status, and PRs for all projects")
Agent(team_name="dash-team", name="business-loader", prompt="Gather revenue, Linear sprint, and fire alerts")
```

If the flag is NOT set, use standard fire-and-forget subagents.

## Render dashboard instantly

```!
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-dash 2>/dev/null || echo "DASH_RENDER_FAILED"
```

## Your task

The dashboard has **already rendered above** via the shell script — the user can see the full colored ANSI output directly. Your job is to **route user input** to the right skill.

**DO NOT re-render, re-print, summarize, transcribe, or describe the dashboard output.** The user sees the rich colored render above; any plain-text re-statement is duplicate noise and destroys the visual quality.

Skip straight to AskUserQuestion for the next action — no preamble, no recap, no "vitals" summary line. The dashboard speaks for itself.

## C-suite report access (option e)

When user selects `e`:

1. Find latest YOLO session: `ls -td /tmp/yolo-*/ 2>/dev/null | head -1`
2. If found, show a sub-menu:

Display the C-suite header, then use **batched AskUserQuestion** (max 4 options per call):

```
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 OPS > C-SUITE REPORTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
```

AskUserQuestion call 1:

```
  [CEO — Strategic analysis]
  [CTO — Technical health]
  [CFO — Financial analysis]
  [More...]
```

AskUserQuestion call 2 (only if "More..."):

```
  [COO — Operations review]
  [All — Full Hard Truths report]
  [Back to dashboard]
```

Read the selected file and display it. After display, offer `[Back to dashboard]`.

3. If no YOLO reports exist:

```
No C-suite reports yet. Run /ops:ops-yolo to generate one.

 b) Back to dashboard
```

---

## Settings sub-menu (option f)

When user selects `f`, read current preferences and present an interactive config editor.

```bash
PREFS="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace}/preferences.json"
cat "$PREFS" 2>/dev/null || echo '{}'
```

```bash
cat "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/registry.json" 2>/dev/null || echo '{}'
```

Display the full settings menu as text (for reference), then use **batched AskUserQuestion calls** (max 4 options each) to let the user pick a category:

```
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 OPS > SETTINGS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

 PROFILE:       Owner=[value] | TZ=[value] | Style=[value]
 CHANNELS:      Email=[✓/✗] | WA=[✓/✗] | Slack=[N workspaces/✗] | Telegram=[✓/✗]
 INTEGRATIONS:  AWS=[value] | Sentry=[value] | Linear=[value]
 PROJECTS:      [N] registered
 PLUGIN:        v[version]
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────
```

Use AskUserQuestion (max 4 options):

```
What would you like to configure?
  [Profile (name/timezone/style)]
  [Channels (email/WA/slack/telegram)]
  [Integrations & Projects]
  [Back to dashboard]
```

On "Profile": use AskUserQuestion with `[Owner name]`, `[Timezone]`, `[Briefing style]`, `[Back]`.
On "Channels": use AskUserQuestion with the 4 channel names (fits in one call).
On "Integrations & Projects": use AskUserQuestion with `[AWS/Sentry/Linear]`, `[View registry]`, `[Add/remove project]`, `[Update plugin / Re-run setup]`.

For each option, use AskUserQuestion to get the new value, then write to preferences.json or registry.json.

**Writing preferences:**

```bash
PREFS="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace}/preferences.json"
# Read existing, merge update, write back
jq --arg key "owner" --arg val "$NEW_VALUE" '.[$key] = $val' "$PREFS" > "${PREFS}.tmp" && mv "${PREFS}.tmp" "$PREFS"
```

After each change, confirm success and return to the settings menu. User can keep making changes or press `b` to go back.

---

## Share sub-menu (option g)

When user selects `g`, generate a shareable summary of their ops setup:

Display the share header, then use **batched AskUserQuestion** (max 4 options per call):

```
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 OPS > SHARE YOUR SETUP
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
```

AskUserQuestion call 1:

```
  [Share on X (Twitter)]
  [Share via Slack]
  [Share via Email]
  [More...]
```

AskUserQuestion call 2 (only if "More..."):

```
  [Copy to clipboard]
  [Export setup guide (markdown)]
  [Back to dashboard]
```

## Return-to-dash loop

After ANY skill completes and returns control, **re-render the dashboard** by running the bin script again and re-entering the routing loop. This creates the "app within an app" experience — the user always comes back to the command center.

To re-render:

```bash
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-dash 2>/dev/null
```

Then AskUserQuestion again for the next action.

**Exception**: If user types `q`, `quit`, or `exit`, end the session gracefully:

```
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 OPS > SESSION ENDED
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
```

## If `$ARGUMENTS` is `back`

Re-render the dashboard and enter routing loop.

## If `$ARGUMENTS` is `settings`

Jump directly to settings sub-menu (skip dashboard render).

## If `$ARGUMENTS` is `share`

Jump directly to share sub-menu.

## If `$ARGUMENTS` is `faq`

Jump directly to FAQ sub-menu.

## Setup gate

If the dashboard script outputs `DASH_RENDER_FAILED` or the preferences file doesn't exist, show:

```
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 OPS > SETUP REQUIRED
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

 Run /ops:setup to configure your integrations first.
```

Then invoke `/ops:setup` directly.

## Windsor.ai (optional live data)

If Windsor.ai is connected (`mcp__*Windsor*__*` or a `windsor_api_key`), use it as the
live cross-channel source for all live KPIs (spend, ROAS, CAC, sessions, social reach) for the command-center tiles, flagging deviations vs 7d/30d.
Map accounts per project via `registry.json` → `.projects[].windsor`. Prefer **blended
ROAS** (store/analytics revenue ÷ total ad spend) over platform-reported ROAS. See
[docs/integrations/windsor-ai.md](../../../docs/integrations/windsor-ai.md) for the full playbook (REST + MCP modes,
registry mapping, analysis mandate, and caveats).
Data sanity: if Windsor returns only zeros across sources (Meta + Google spend/impressions and
Instagram reach all exactly 0 over 30d while accounts are connected), treat the data as unavailable —
the plan may be expired (check `get_current_user` → `is_paid`) — warn the user, and never present
zeros as real metrics. `scripts/windsor-data-sanity.sh` automates the check.

Windsor is optional. If Windsor is not connected, returns errors, or returns the
all-zero pattern, fall back to the free direct libraries:
`scripts/lib/ad-spend-aggregator.sh` (paid), `scripts/lib/ga4-data-api.sh`
(analytics), and `scripts/lib/organic-metrics-aggregator.sh` (organic + merchant).
See [docs/integrations/direct-channel-wiring.md](../../../docs/integrations/direct-channel-wiring.md).
Never present zeros from a dead source as real metrics.
