Multi-Project Dashboard

Overview

Provides a unified view across all PopKit-enabled projects, showing health scores, activity status, and enabling quick context switching.

Core principle: Quick status overview with actionable intelligence for multi-project developers.

Trigger: /popkit:dashboard command or skill invocation.

When to Use

Invoke this skill when:

• Managing multiple projects
• Need quick overview of all project statuses
• Switching context between projects
• Registering new projects
• Checking for projects needing attention

Registry Management

The project registry is stored globally at ~/.claude/popkit/projects.json.

Step 1: Load Registry

from project_registry import load_registry, list_projects

# Load all registered projects
registry = load_registry()
projects = list_projects()

print(f"Total projects: {len(projects)}")

Step 2: Display Dashboard

Show the main dashboard view:

+===============================================================+
|                      PopKit Dashboard                          |
+===============================================================+

  Total: 5  |  Healthy: 3  |  Warning: 1  |  Critical: 1

  -------------------------------------------------------------
  | Project          | Health | Issues | Last Active   |
  -------------------------------------------------------------
  | popkit           | + 92   |   5    | 2 min ago     |
  | popkit-cloud     | ~ 78   |   3    | 1 hour ago    |
  | reseller-central | + 88   |  12    | 3 days ago    |
  | my-website       | ! 45   |   0    | 2 weeks ago   |
  -------------------------------------------------------------

  Commands: add <path> | remove <name> | refresh | switch <name>

Step 3: Health Score Calculation

Use the health calculator for detailed scores:

from health_calculator import calculate_health_score, calculate_quick_health

# Full health check (slower, more accurate)
result = calculate_health_score("/path/to/project")
print(f"Health: {result['score']}/100")

# Quick health check (git + activity only)
quick_score = calculate_quick_health("/path/to/project")
print(f"Quick Health: {quick_score}/100")

Health Score Breakdown

Subcommand Operations

Show Dashboard (Default)

/popkit:dashboard

Display the full dashboard with all projects, health scores, and quick actions.

Add Project

/popkit:dashboard add /path/to/project
/popkit:dashboard add . # Current directory

Register a project in the global registry. Auto-detects:

• Project name from package.json/pyproject.toml
• GitHub repo from git remote
• Initial health score

from project_registry import add_project

success, message = add_project("/path/to/project", tags=["active"])
print(message)

Remove Project

/popkit:dashboard remove project-name

Remove a project from registry (does not delete files).

from project_registry import remove_project

success, message = remove_project("my-project")
print(message)

Refresh Health Scores

/popkit:dashboard refresh           # Refresh all
/popkit:dashboard refresh popkit    # Refresh one

Recalculate health scores for all or specific projects:

from project_registry import list_projects, update_health_score
from health_calculator import calculate_health_score

for project in list_projects():
    result = calculate_health_score(project["path"])
    update_health_score(project["name"], result["score"])
    print(f"{project['name']}: {result['score']}/100")

Switch Project

/popkit:dashboard switch project-name

Change context to a different project. Updates activity timestamp and provides project summary.

from project_registry import get_project, touch_project
import os

project = get_project("popkit")
if project:
    os.chdir(project["path"])
    touch_project(project["path"])
    print(f"Switched to: {project['name']}")

Auto-Discovery

Automatically discover projects in common locations:

from project_registry import discover_projects, add_project

# Search common dev directories
discovered = discover_projects()

for project in discovered:
    print(f"Found: {project['name']} at {project['path']}")

# Add discovered projects
for project in discovered:
    add_project(project["path"])

Output Format

Use AskUserQuestion for interactive operations:

Use AskUserQuestion tool with:
- question: "Which project would you like to switch to?"
- header: "Switch"
- options:
  - label: "popkit"
    description: "Health: 92 | Last active: 2 min ago"
  - label: "popkit-cloud"
    description: "Health: 78 | Last active: 1 hour ago"
  - label: "reseller-central"
    description: "Health: 88 | Last active: 3 days ago"
- multiSelect: false

Cross-Project Activity Feed

Show recent activity across all projects:

Recent Activity (across all projects)
-------------------------------------
| Project          | Action           | Time       |
|------------------|------------------|------------|
| popkit           | Closed #117      | 2 min ago  |
| popkit-cloud     | Pushed main      | 1 hour ago |
| reseller-central | Failed build     | 3 days ago |

Project Tags

Tag projects for filtering:

from project_registry import add_tag, get_projects_by_tag

# Add tags
add_tag("popkit", "active")
add_tag("reseller-central", "client-work")

# Filter by tag
active_projects = get_projects_by_tag("active")

Unhealthy Project Alerts

Identify projects needing attention:

from project_registry import get_unhealthy_projects

# Projects with health < 70
unhealthy = get_unhealthy_projects(threshold=70)

if unhealthy:
    print("Projects needing attention:")
    for p in unhealthy:
        print(f"  ! {p['name']}: {p['healthScore']}/100")

Settings

Configure dashboard behavior in registry:

{
  "settings": {
    "autoDiscover": true,
    "healthCheckInterval": "daily",
    "maxInactiveProjects": 20
  }
}
