Session Summary

Ran a /human-flow (mouse + keyboard ergonomics) scan on the GuruRMM dashboard and shipped two waves of fixes to the beta channel. The scan (delegated to a Sonnet subagent using the human-flow skill's scanner + heuristics) scored the dashboard 6.5/10 and flagged three compounding issues: tiny universal action targets (size="sm", 32px, used everywhere), a 12-tab AgentDetail strip with no keyboard arrow navigation, and modal/drawer surfaces missing Escape. It produced a prioritized report (P0/P1/P2) separating mouse, keyboard, and combined friction, with file:line citations.

Implemented the top 5 fixes first (Coding Agent), all localized: a labeled Terminal button + wider action column in the Agents table; a two-step inline Delete confirm for WatchdogAlerts across all 3 surfaces (was irreversible one-click); ARIA roving tabindex + Arrow/Home/End navigation on the Tabs component; auto-focus of the CommandTerminal input on mount; and Escape-to-close + a larger close button on the UserManagerTab slide-over. Code Review Agent approved (no CRITICAL/HIGH; 3 LOW optional notes). Gitea Agent committed (gururmm 9671c4b, ClaudeTools 8fb45e4), the push fired the webhook, and the dashboard auto-built to beta as v0.2.37.

Then executed the systemic P1 — the size="sm" sweep (human-flow Issue 5) — as a judgment pass, not a blind find/replace. The Coding Agent examined 99 instances and promoted 31 list-header/primary action buttons to size="default" (36px), converted 4 icon-only buttons to size="icon" (h-9 w-9, removing a cramped h-7 w-7 p-0 override), and intentionally left dense table-row groups, two-step Confirm/Cancel pairs, inline form controls, and compact/error-state buttons at sm. Code Review confirmed zero mismatched-height siblings — the promotions actually fixed pre-existing mismatches with adjacent h-9 selects — and proved scope discipline mechanically (only the size prop changed). Committed (gururmm d2d10e3, ClaudeTools 13f992c), auto-built to beta as v0.2.38.

Both passes are now on beta (rmm-beta.azcomputerguru.com); production is untouched and a single promote-dashboard.sh --confirm ships both. This was the first real exercise of the beta-first dashboard channel built the prior day, and it held end-to-end: scan -> Coding Agent -> Code Review -> Gitea push -> webhook auto-build to beta -> verified live, twice. The Gitea Agent cleanly rebased over the pipeline's [ci-version-bump] commit on the second push.

Key Decisions

  • Treated the size="sm" sweep as a per-instance judgment call rather than a blanket replace: promote header/primary actions, convert icon-only-with-overrides to size="icon", and leave dense/inline/secondary contexts — to avoid breaking layouts.
  • Delegated the human-flow scan and both implementation passes to subagents (Sonnet scan; Coding Agent implement; Code Review Agent review; Gitea Agent commit) to preserve the long session's main context.
  • Used the safer "label + spacing" version of the Agents table fix rather than a dropdown-menu refactor, to minimize regression risk on a first beta pass.
  • Shipped to beta only; deferred promotion to Mike. The cosmetic P2 items (gauge-card click affordance, focus-ring/aria-label touch-ups) were left for a future pass.

Problems Encountered

  • Local npx tsc -b reported two date-fns module-not-found errors (BackupDetailTab.tsx, BackupStatusCard.tsx). Root cause: date-fns@^4.2.1 is in package.json but not installed in the local working tree. Not introduced by the changes and not in any modified file; the server build's npm install resolves it, so the beta build succeeded. Left local node_modules untouched (out of scope).
  • Second push (size sweep) hit a non-fast-forward: the pipeline's server-side [ci-version-bump] (fa901e2) had advanced origin/main. Gitea Agent resolved with fetch + rebase (no force-push) and re-pushed.

Configuration Changes

GuruRMM dashboard (projects/msp-tools/guru-rmm/dashboard/src):

  • Top-5 (commit 9671c4b, 7 files, +153/-36): pages/Agents.tsx, pages/AgentDetail.tsx, pages/Alerts.tsx, pages/WatchdogAlerts.tsx, components/Tabs.tsx, components/CommandTerminal.tsx, components/UserManagerTab.tsx.
  • Size sweep (commit d2d10e3, 18 files): pages {AgentDetail, Agents, ClientDetail, Clients, Logs, MSPBackups, Organizations, SiteDetail, Sites, Updates, Users, WatchdogAlerts}.tsx; components {ChecksPanel, CredentialList, DiscoveryTab, InventoryTab, LogAnalysis, UserManagerTab}.tsx.

ClaudeTools submodule pointer bumps: 8fb45e4 (-> 9671c4b), 13f992c (-> d2d10e3).

No server/infra config changed this session; the dashboard build pipeline (build-dashboard.sh) auto-built both pushes to /var/www/gururmm/dashboard-beta/.

Credentials & Secrets

None discovered or created this session. (Prior-day note still stands: the MSP360 API password is leaked in plaintext across several committed logs and should be rotated — vault msp-tools/msp360-api.sops.yaml.)

Infrastructure & Servers

  • Beta dashboard: https://rmm-beta.azcomputerguru.com (nginx vhost gururmm-beta on 172.16.3.30, web root /var/www/gururmm/dashboard-beta/). Built v0.2.37 then v0.2.38 this session.
  • Prod dashboard: https://rmm.azcomputerguru.com — untouched (no promote run).
  • Build pipeline: webhook (172.16.3.30:9000) -> build-shared.sh (auto version bump) -> build-dashboard.sh (npm install + vite build + rsync to dashboard-beta). Log /var/log/gururmm-build-dashboard.log.

Commands & Outputs

  • Beta build (top-5): Dashboard beta build complete: v0.2.37 (fa901e28...) -- live at https://rmm-beta.azcomputerguru.com.
  • Beta build (size sweep): Dashboard beta build complete: v0.2.38 (fc76b7fb...), built in 12.00s, deployed 13:20:03.
  • Live checks: rmm-beta HTTP 200 with BETA banner; rmm (prod) HTTP 200, unchanged.
  • Promote (when ready): sudo /opt/gururmm/promote-dashboard.sh --confirm (dry-run without --confirm; --rollback to undo).

Pending / Incomplete Tasks

  • Promote beta -> prod when Mike is satisfied with the human-flow changes (single promote ships both v0.2.37 + v0.2.38).
  • Optional human-flow P2 polish (future beta pass): gauge-card click affordance (AgentDetail.tsx GaugeCard), maintenance-toggle focus ring, Select.tsx aria-label, text-only toggle link hit-padding, sidebar-collapse keyboard shortcut, command-palette agent results.
  • 3 LOW code-review notes from the top-5 pass (non-blocking): shared isMutating disabling Confirm on a newly-opened row; onClose re-subscribe churn; Confirm-disabled predicate inconsistency vs Agents.tsx.
  • Carried over from 2026-06-03 (unchanged): MSP360/B2 cleanup follow-ups (coord todos 2e50f388 audit-first, dc3a6233 post-purge verify, 0fed5eb2 decisions), Glaztech SBS portal removal (db03f8fe), rotate the leaked MSP360 API key.

Update: 07:59 PDT — Grok CLI integration (capability router + per-machine flag)

Summary

Explored and built Claude->Grok delegation using the locally-installed Grok CLI (grok.exe, xAI, "Grok Build TUI" 0.2.20). Discovered the binary at C:\Users\guru\.grok\bin\grok.exe (not on PATH; OIDC/grok.com login at ~/.grok/auth.json, ~6h refresh, team account mike@azcomputerguru.com — NO developer API key). Learned the CLI surface (--prompt-file, --output-format json, -p/--single, agent subcommand, scoping flags). grok inspect showed Grok natively reads the Claude harness here (CLAUDE.md, settings.local.json 69 perms, all 52 skills).

Per Mike's suggestion, interviewed the Grok agent itself (headless) — its leaked system-prompt tool list overturned an earlier wrong conclusion (I'd said the CLI was text-only and needed an API key). It has native media tools. VERIFIED live, no API key: image_gen produced a correct 1024x1024 red-circle JPG; image_to_video produced a 6.04s 544x544 H.264+AAC MP4 from it. Also has web_search/web_fetch + X/Twitter tools (xsearch returned the current Rust version 1.96.0 with x.com citations). Artifacts land in ~/.grok/sessions/<url-encoded-cwd>/<sessionId>/{images,videos}/.

Built the /grok capability-router skill: .claude/skills/grok/SKILL.md + scripts/ask-grok.sh (modes: text, verify, image, video, xsearch, raw). All five modes tested working end-to-end. Then added a per-machine availability flag: identity.json grok block, with migrate-identity.sh auto-detecting Grok so every fleet machine self-populates grok.installed (false where absent); the wrapper is identity-aware (exits 3 with routing guidance on non-Grok machines). Remote routing (so other fleet machines could use this host's Grok) was DEFERRED.

Key Decisions

  • Grok = capability EXTENSION (image/video, live web+X data, independent second model), not a replacement for Claude's coding/editing. Pure classify/extract stays on Tier-0 Ollama; repo code stays with Claude's agents.
  • Prompts to grok ALWAYS via --prompt-file (inline args break on shell quoting). Parse grok JSON via stdin (Windows py can't open git-bash /c/... paths). Retrieve media artifacts by sessionId glob (robust against the headless stopReason: Cancelled finalization quirk). Override the config's permission_mode = "always-approve" with --permission-mode dontAsk --no-subagents.
  • Per-machine flag lives in identity.json (gitignored, local); auto-detected by migrate-identity.sh (preserves manual is_fleet_host). Fleet host advertised in SKILL.md (currently GURU-5070, the only install).
  • Deferred remote routing: only this workstation drives Claude+Grok now; the relay (esp. image/video artifact transport back to a requesting machine) isn't worth building yet. Per the SBS post-mortem, never delegate unsupervised destructive work to Grok; always review its output.

Problems Encountered

  • grok / agent not on PATH -> located the binary by filesystem search.
  • --effort high -> 400 "grok-build does not support reasoningEffort"; dropped it.
  • Headless -p reported Cancelled after generating media but before echoing the path -> solved by retrieving artifacts via sessionId glob of the session dir.
  • ask-grok.sh bugs found via testing: set -u tripped on unbound $USER (guarded); Windows py couldn't open the /c/... json path (switched to stdin); --disallowed-tools/--rules/--check tripped/slowed the CLI (replaced with prompt-level steering). All fixed; modes re-verified.

Configuration Changes

  • NEW .claude/skills/grok/SKILL.md, .claude/skills/grok/scripts/ask-grok.sh
  • EDIT .claude/scripts/migrate-identity.sh (Grok auto-detect -> identity.json grok block)
  • EDIT .claude/identity.json (added grok block; gitignored/local — does NOT sync)

Commands & Outputs

  • Headless text: grok --prompt-file <f> --output-format json -> {"text":"...","sessionId":"..."}.
  • Router: bash .claude/skills/grok/scripts/ask-grok.sh {text|verify|image|video|xsearch} ....
  • Verified: image -> 1024x1024 JPEG; video -> 6.04s 544x544 H.264 MP4 (ffprobe); xsearch -> live Rust 1.96.0 + citations.
  • migrate-identity.sh -> "Grok: installed (C:/Users/guru/.grok/bin/grok.exe)", grok.installed: true, is_fleet_host preserved.

Pending / Incomplete Tasks

  • Remote routing DEFERRED (candidates: GuruRMM agent command / grok agent serve / coord job queue; artifact transport is the hard part).
  • Existing fleet machines should re-run migrate-identity.sh to populate grok.installed (else they hit a generic "grok not found" instead of the exit-3 routing message). Optional: have /self-check flag a missing grok block.
  • Untested Grok tools: image_edit, reference_to_video. Optional /grok slash-command alias.
  • Carried over: human-flow promote beta->prod when ready; MSP360/B2 follow-ups (coord todos 2e50f388 / dc3a6233 / 0fed5eb2); SBS portal removal (db03f8fe); rotate leaked MSP360 API key.

Reference Information

  • Grok binary ~/.grok/bin/grok.exe (0.2.20); auth ~/.grok/auth.json (OIDC); config ~/.grok/config.toml (permission_mode=always-approve, model grok-build). Models: grok-build (default), grok-composer-2.5-fast; agent self-reports Grok 4.3.
  • Native tools: image_gen, image_edit, image_to_video, reference_to_video, web_search, web_fetch, x_keyword_search, x_semantic_search, x_user_search, x_thread_fetch, run_terminal_command, file ops, scheduler_*, monitor, memory.
  • Skill: .claude/skills/grok/. Fleet Grok host: GURU-5070 (only install).
