Dashboard Guide
The Fusion dashboard is the main control plane for tasks, agents, missions, settings, logs, and repository operations.
Board View
Board view is the kanban surface for day-to-day operation.
Features:
- Drag-and-drop between lifecycle columns
- Search/filter tasks
- Column visibility controls
- Inline quick entry creation
- PR/issue badges with live updates
List View
List view is optimized for dense task management.
Features:
- Grouping modes (for example by column/size)
- Inline title editing
- Duplicate task actions
- Quick scanning of metadata without card expansion
Interactive Terminal
Fusion embeds a terminal using xterm.js.
Features:
- Multiple terminal tabs
- PTY-backed shell sessions
- Mobile-aware virtual keyboard handling and auto-refit behavior
Git Manager
Git manager centralizes repo operations in the dashboard.
Features:
- Branch/worktree visibility
- Commit and diff browsing
- Push/pull/fetch actions
- Remote editing controls
File Browser and Editor
Built-in file tools allow quick inspection and edits.
Features:
- Browse project root and task worktrees
- Open files in an editor with syntax highlighting
- Navigate artifacts generated during task execution
Activity Log
The activity log tracks task/system events over time.
Features:
- Event type filtering
- Auto-refresh updates
- Operational traceability for task moves, merges, settings updates, and errors
Theme System
Visual customization includes:
- Theme mode: dark/light/system
- 54 color themes (including Ocean, Forest, Nord, Dracula, Gruvbox, Tokyo Night, and more)
Theme preferences are stored in global settings.
Usage Dialog
Usage view shows provider consumption and limits.
Features:
- Progress bars by provider/model
- Reset window visibility
- Helps diagnose capacity/rate-limit conditions
Spec Editor
The spec editor lets you edit PROMPT.md directly.
Features:
- Manual prompt edits
- AI revision requests
- Rebuild/regenerate flows when task intent changes
Planning Mode
Planning mode is an AI interview workflow for shaping task scope.
Features:
- Clarification Q&A
- Summary generation
- Two final actions: Create Task or Break into Tasks
- Multi-task creation uses key deliverables and dependency linking
Session Lifecycle
- Send to Background — Hides the modal but preserves the session server-side. The session continues running and can be resumed from the Background Sessions panel.
- Close (X button or Escape) — Explicitly abandons the session on the server. The AI stops processing and the session is terminated. Use this when you want to cancel without saving progress.
- Session Persistence — Planning sessions that are actively running (generating, awaiting input, complete, or error) appear in the Background Sessions panel and can be resumed.
Subtask Breakdown Dialog
The subtask dialog supports structured decomposition before creation.
Features:
- AI-generated subtasks
- Drag-and-drop reordering
- Keyboard reordering controls
- Dependency linking constrained to earlier items
Session Lifecycle
- Send to Background — Hides the modal but preserves the session server-side. The session continues running and can be resumed from the Background Sessions panel.
- Close (X button or Cancel) — Explicitly abandons the session on the server. The AI stops processing and the session is terminated. Confirmation is shown if there are unsaved changes.
Settings Modal
Central place for model/provider config, execution behavior, notifications, backups, and UI preferences.
Workflow Step Manager
Create and manage reusable quality gates for tasks.
Agents View
Inspect agents, runtime status, run history, and configuration.
Mission Manager
Manage mission hierarchy and progression state.
Task Detail Modal
Inspect logs, step progress, workflow outcomes, and model overrides.
Node Dashboard
The Node Dashboard provides a mesh view of connected Fusion nodes. Each node can be a local instance or a remote headless node (fn serve).
Local/Remote Node Switching
When remote nodes are available, the dashboard header displays a node status indicator:
- Local mode — Shows a green "Local" badge, indicating the dashboard is connected to the local Fusion instance
- Remote mode — Shows the remote node name with its connection status (online/offline/connecting)
Click the chevron next to the status indicator to open the node selector dropdown:
- Local — Switch back to viewing the local Fusion instance
- Remote nodes — Select a remote node to view its tasks, projects, and status
How Node Switching Works
- The node selector appears in the header when remote nodes are registered in the mesh
- Selecting a remote node routes all API calls through the proxy endpoint (
/api/proxy/:nodeId/...) - Task data (projects, tasks) is fetched from the remote node and displayed in the dashboard
- SSE events from the remote node are streamed via the proxy and update the dashboard in real-time
- Selecting "Local" returns to the local Fusion instance with full local data
Benefits of Remote Node Viewing
- Monitor task progress across distributed teams
- View task status on remote headless nodes without direct SSH access
- Compare project health across multiple Fusion instances
- Stay informed about remote agent activity and task completion
Node Status Indicators
| Status | Color | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Online | Green | Node is connected and responsive |
| Offline | Red | Node is unreachable or shut down |
| Connecting | Yellow (pulsing) | Connection attempt in progress |
Persistence
The selected node persists across browser sessions via localStorage. If the selected remote node is unregistered, the dashboard automatically falls back to local mode.
