naps62-yoloandClaude Opus 4.7 e68c9b6d73 feat(maestro): web client (Vite + TS + xterm.js)
NAP-218. Browser UI for the prototype: catalog tree derived from
`metadata.label`, live updates over `WS /api/events`, search across
session name+label, spawn modal (with optional git worktree), and an
attach view that opens the daemon's per-session WS for xterm.js.

Framework choice: vanilla TypeScript. The interactivity surface is
small enough that pulling in a framework wouldn't pay back; xterm.js
does the heavy lifting. Easy to swap later without protocol impact.

Hash-based routing (`#/`, `#/attach/<id>`) keeps the registry's
static surface dumb — no SPA fallback needed; concurrent attaches
work by opening the same hash URL in another tab.

Browser UI for Maestro. Connects to the registry HTTP/WS API for the catalog and to individual daemons (via direct WebSocket) for terminal I/O.

Framework choice: vanilla TypeScript

No frontend framework. The UI is small enough that the cost of pulling in Preact / Solid / Leptos doesn't pay back. xterm.js does all the heavy rendering; everything else is a session tree and a spawn form, both trivial in plain DOM.

This decision is non-architectural — swap in a framework later without touching the registry or daemon if needed.

Layout

src/
  main.ts        # entry point, hash-route dispatch
  api.ts         # registry HTTP API client
  events.ts      # `/api/events` WebSocket subscriber
  catalog.ts     # session tree view (groups by metadata.label)
  attach.ts     # xterm.js + daemon WS attach view
  spawn.ts       # spawn-session modal
  types.ts       # mirror of `maestro-protocol` JSON shapes
  styles.css     # mobile-first base styles

Routing is hash-based:

  • #/ → catalog
  • #/attach/<session-id> → terminal

This keeps the registry's static handler dumb (no SPA fallback needed). Concurrent attaches: open the same #/attach/<id> URL in another tab.

Dev

pnpm install
pnpm dev      # http://localhost:5173, proxies /api → http://127.0.0.1:8080
pnpm build    # → dist/, embedded into the registry binary at cargo build time

The Vite dev server proxies /api and the events WebSocket to a locally running maestro-registry (default 127.0.0.1:8080). Direct daemon WS connections (for attach) bypass the proxy and use the URL returned by GET /api/sessions/:id/connect-info.

Production

pnpm build writes the bundle to web/dist/. The Rust registry crate embeds that directory via rust-embed at compile time and serves it from /. See crates/maestro-registry/src/web_assets.rs.
