# /dashboard — Launch the aesop web dashboard Idempotent dashboard launch: check if already running on :8770, start if needed (background process), open browser, report URL + task id. Optional `stop` argument to kill the server. **Model**: Haiku (read-only + light operations) ## Behavior ### 1. Check dashboard health (no startup on this call) ```bash curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' http://localhost:8770/ ``` - If **200**: dashboard already running → report URL + "Already running" + skip to step 4. - If **non-200 or connection refused**: proceed to step 2. ### 2. Start the dashboard server (background) From the aesop repo root, launch via Bash `run_in_background: true`: ```bash python ui/serve.py ``` Environment override (optional): - `PORT=<port>` — defaults to 8770 if unset. - Config precedence: `PORT` env var > `aesop.config.json` > default 8770 ### 3. Poll for readiness (no blocking sleeps) Use `curl --retry` to poll until :8770 responds with 200: ```bash curl -s --retry 20 --retry-delay 1 --retry-connrefused http://localhost:8770/ ``` Expect **200** — then proceed. ### 4. Open browser (Windows) ```powershell start http://localhost:8770 ``` ### 5. Report Output one summary line with: - Dashboard URL: `http://localhost:8770` - Status: "Running" or "Already running" - Background task id (if just started) - Data freshness: hit `/api/state` for one-line status (e.g., "heartbeat: 5s old") **Example:** ``` Dashboard: http://localhost:8770 | Running (task: bg-12
