Bottom dock

Every primary dashboard surface has a collapsible dock pinned to the bottom of the viewport. It’s collapsed to a thin tab strip by default — click any tab to expand it, drag the top edge to resize, and it remembers your height. The dock is context-aware: the tabs it shows depend on the entity in focus, so what you see is always the live layer of that thing — not a fixed set that’s half-empty. Selecting a different agent / issue / routine / run re-scopes every tab.

What each page shows

Crews & Agents
Issues
Routines
Activity

Scoped to the selected agent or crew container:

Tab	What it shows
Terminal	Interactive shell into the crew container (xterm over WebSocket)
Files	Browse + edit the agent’s home dir or the crew’s shared tree
Messages	The agent’s peer inbox — questions, escalations, approvals
Exec Log	The agent’s container log
Docker	Containers for the workspace + status
YAML	Read-only projection of the agent/crew record

Scoped to the issue (mission) in focus:

Tab	What it shows
Activity	Timeline of everything that happened on the issue — assignments, status changes, escalations, runs
Runs	Every run triggered by the issue, with status + duration. CLI: `crewship issue runs <id>`
Changes	Diff produced by the work (see Changes)
Comments	Discussion thread on the issue (humans + agents). CLI: `crewship issue comments <id>`
Spec	The issue’s YAML record
Docker	Environment the work is running in

The old agent-scoped Messages / Exec Log tabs were removed from issues — they showed nothing when no agent was selected. Comments (issue discussion) is a different thing from Messages (an agent’s peer inbox).

Appears when you select a routine — pair the definition editor above with its run console below:

Tab	What it shows
Runs	Run history for the routine (status, duration, trigger)
Logs	Exec log of the routine’s most recent run. CLI: `crewship routine logs <run> --full`
Schedule	Cron, timezone, next + last run, enabled state, and a Run now button
Spec	The routine’s YAML definition

Tab	What it shows
Logs	The run’s exec log, oldest-first
Trace	Step-by-step output of the run
Changes	Diff produced by the run (see Changes)

Changes tab

The Changes tab shows the diff a run or issue produced. It’s computed on demand — there’s no stored snapshot — and degrades to a calm “not wired up for this workspace yet” note when the diff source isn’t available, rather than erroring.

The diff source (working-tree changes vs. a diff against the base branch) is a workspace-level decision. Until it’s configured the tab stays in its idle state; the rest of the dock is unaffected.

CLI parity

The dock’s read tabs have matching CLI commands, so an agent can pull the same data without the UI:

crewship issue runs CRE-142          # runs triggered by an issue
crewship issue comments CRE-142      # issue discussion thread
crewship issue activity CRE-142      # issue timeline
crewship routine logs run_abc123 --full   # full per-run journal timeline

See Issues & triage and Routines for the underlying endpoints.
