The shared shell every operator panel uses. 28px header strip with
UPPERCASE letter-spaced title (--type-label, --fg-2), optional muted
subtitle (--fg-3), StaleIndicator dot, and an external-link "raw"
icon → upstream source. Body fills remaining space and scrolls
internally. Border-bottom 1px --fg-4 separates panels in the column.
Primitives in shared/:
KPI — value (mono, --type-num-l, tabular-nums, --fg-1) + label
(UPPERCASE, --type-label, --fg-3). No card wrapper, no
rounded corner, no background. The number IS the unit.
Sparkline — d3-scale + d3-array driven inline SVG. Single stroke
in currentColor, no axes / no fill / no animation. Used
only when the shape IS the insight (per ethos). Returns
null with <2 points so empty panels don't ship a flat line
as a placeholder.
StaleIndicator — 6px square dot. --ok green (fresh), --amber
(stale, breached threshold), --fg-4 muted (unknown / no
data yet). Title attribute carries last update UTC time
for hover context.
RawLink not extracted yet — Panel inlines the icon since one raw
link per panel is the rule. Extract when a panel needs more.
Adds d3-scale 4.0.2 + d3-array 3.2.4 + their @types — small d3
modules (not the full umbrella) per spec §10.3 to keep bundle lean.
Plan 5 Task 13 Design QA: panel header 28px, title UPPERCASE
letter-spaced, sparkline pure stroke (no axes / fill), stale dot
6px, no border-radius anywhere, no hover scale.

Monitor the Situation
Operator-grade real-time situational awareness dashboard. Single-binary Go backend, React 19 frontend, Postgres + Redis, fronted by nginx and (optionally) a Cloudflare Tunnel.
The phrase "Monitoring the situation" is a Twitter/X meme from June 2025. This is the version that actually monitors the situation.
Stack
| Layer | Tech |
|---|---|
| Backend | Go 1.22, chi router, coder/websocket, goose migrations |
| Frontend | React 19, Vite, TanStack Query, Zustand, MapLibre, D3 |
| Storage | Postgres 16 (BRIN-indexed time-series), Redis 7 |
| Ingress | nginx (dev + prod), Cloudflare Tunnel (prod) |
| Build / run | just recipes, multi-stage Docker, air for live reload |

Quickstart (development)
cp .env.example .env
# fill .env: POSTGRES_PASSWORD, JWT_SECRET, NOTIFICATION_ENCRYPTION_KEY
just dev-start
just migrate-dev
open http://localhost:8432
JWT signing keys auto-generate at backend/keys/private.pem on first boot. The dev stack binds host ports 8432 (nginx) / 5432 (backend) / 4432 (postgres) / 6432 (redis) / 3432 (vite).
Smoke checks
curl -s http://localhost:8432/api/v1/healthz
curl -s http://localhost:8432/api/v1/snapshot | jq .
docker run --rm -i --network host ghcr.io/vi/websocat:latest \
"ws://localhost:8432/api/v1/ws?topics=heartbeat"
Production (Cloudflare Tunnel)
cp .env.example .env
# fill production secrets including CLOUDFLARE_TUNNEL_TOKEN
just tunnel-start
just migrate
