Start Kanshi Dashboard

Start the Kanshi observability dashboard server and open it in the browser.

Steps

1. Check if the server is already running by testing curl -sf http://localhost:3838/ > /dev/null 2>&1

2. If the server is NOT running:

   • cd to the kanshi server directory: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/server
   • Check if node_modules exists; if not, run pnpm install
   • Start the server as a background task using run_in_background: true: npx tsx src/index.ts
   • Note the task ID returned by the background task
   • Wait 2 seconds for the server to start

3. Open the dashboard in the browser: xdg-open http://localhost:3838

4. Tell the user:

   • Dashboard is running at http://localhost:3838
   • All tool events from this session will appear in real-time
   • The dashboard is running as a background task

Stopping the dashboard

If the user asks to stop the dashboard, use the TaskStop tool with the task ID from the background task to terminate it.
