Covers bringing up and runtime-testing the claude-command-center dashboard server on Linux, including duplicate instances and fresh-install checks.

  • Bringing up the CCC dashboard for manual or automated testing
  • SKILL.md covers Bringing up instances, Browser verification, Fresh-install simulation and Forcing a [ccc:swallowed] line, plus 3 more sections
  • Calls python3, git and node
  • Running a before/after comparison of two dashboard instances

What it does

The server needs no virtual environment or npm install, just a direct Python invocation with port, bind-host and ephemeral-mode environment variables set; a before/after pair of instances for the same repository needs both an ephemeral flag and a duplicate-repo-allow flag, since the server otherwise refuses a second instance of the same repo across worktrees. Startup takes roughly 15 to 25 seconds before the port answers, so polling with curl is preferred over a fixed sleep, and a crashed earlier process can silently hold the port, which a socket check and a kill clears.

Browser verification uses the repo's own puppeteer-based snapshot script rather than Playwright, falling back to a real Chrome driven by computer-use when puppeteer's browser isn't downloaded on a fresh machine; the first load shows a telemetry modal, a product tour and an install toast that all need dismissing. A fresh-install simulation either uses a machine with no existing Claude projects folder, or points the home directory at an empty temporary one, noting that it must be writable at import time since the server creates its own folder and a SQLite store there.

When your agent uses it

  • Bringing up the CCC dashboard for manual or automated testing
  • Running a before/after comparison of two dashboard instances
  • Simulating a fresh install to test first-run behavior

Example prompts

  • “Start two CCC dashboard instances so I can compare before and after.”
  • “Simulate a fresh install of the dashboard and check the first-run screens.”
  • “The dashboard port isn't responding, help me debug the startup.”

Requirements

  • Python 3 (standard library only)
  • A Linux box with Chrome or puppeteer's bundled browser

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a0d2e91. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3
    • git
    • node

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

CCC Dashboard Runtime Testing loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 495 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 495 words (~1,121 tokens).

“Stdlib-only; no venv or npm install needed to run the server.”
