bindev

name	bindev
description	Start the local development server in a tmux session and open the homepage. Use when the user wants to start development, run the app locally, fire up the dev server, or invokes /bindev.

bindev

Start bin/dev (the Procfile.dev fleet: web + tailwind watcher + Solid Queue worker) in a detached tmux session and open the homepage in the browser.

Workflow

1. Run the startup script:

   bash .claude/skills/bindev/scripts/start_dev.sh
   

2. Interpret the output:

   • ALREADY_RUNNING + READY — server was already up, open the browser
   • STARTED + READY — server started cleanly, open the browser
   • STARTED + TIMEOUT — process started but didn't respond in 20s; warn the user and have them tmux attach -t APPNAME-dev to see the logs

3. Open the homepage:

   open http://localhost:APPNAME_PORT
   

4. Confirm to the user that the dev server is up and the homepage is open.

Tmux session

The fleet runs in a tmux session named APPNAME-dev. Useful commands:

• Attach: tmux attach -t APPNAME-dev
• Kill: tmux kill-session -t APPNAME-dev
• List: tmux ls
