The Dashboard

The Rolester dashboard is a local HTML page that renders from workspace/tracker.json. It is read-only — the agent and skills write the data; the dashboard just surfaces it. You do not edit anything through the dashboard.

Running the dashboard

rolester start boots the live dashboard for you as part of first run. To run it on its own:

rolester tracker-dev    # live-reloading server on http://localhost:7777
rolester tracker        # one-shot snapshot → workspace/tracker.html

rolester tracker-dev watches workspace/tracker.json and your dashboard source files and refreshes the open page over Server-Sent Events. A write by the agent reaches your screen within ~120 ms — there is no refresh timer.

The static workspace/tracker.html (from rolester tracker) fetches its data once at page load. Its "last updated" pill is accurate at open but ages from there. For any live session, use rolester tracker-dev.

What the dashboard shows

Dashboard tab

• Stat cards — total applications, active pipeline, interviews scheduled, offers
• Funnel (Sankey) — applied → screen → technical → onsite → offer flow
• Focus card — the role most needing your attention: an upcoming interview with a dossier link, or a follow-up that is due
• Activity Pulse — a reverse-chronological timeline of what the agent did and what happened (roles sourced, jobs evaluated, artifacts tailored, replies, interviews, offers)
• Strategy insights — source performance, role-lane performance, cadence nudges, and a strategy-review trigger when outcome thresholds trip

Jobs tab

• Active Pipeline rail (Sourced → Applied → Screen → Interview → Final → Offer → Accepted) in compact Table or Cards view
• All-Jobs table with status, fit, company, role, and follow-up state
• Slide-in job detail drawer with comp intel, fit reasons/risks, interview notes, artifact links, and the role's own activity timeline

Calendar tab

• Week board with interview and follow-up blocks
• Per-event .ics downloads and Google Calendar / Outlook web links

Network tab

• Company relationship map with any warm contacts sourced by relationship-sourcing

Library tab

• Full browsable evidence and story bank (53+ cards for a typical candidate)

Themes

The dashboard ships Tokyo Night and Gruvbox theme families (light + dark) plus the original palette. Switch via the settings drawer on the dashboard.

The dashboard does not do work

The dashboard never submits, drafts, or writes. All writes go through the agent and skills. This is intentional: the agent is the worker, the dashboard is the display.
