### 11. Conversation Transcript View
Show the actual Claude conversation—prompts and responses—not just tool calls. Tool calls are symptoms; the conversation is the substance.
```
┌─ Conversation: w-alpha ─────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ ┌─ System ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
│ │ You are working on bd-1847: Implement authentication flow │ │
│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ ┌─ Assistant ──────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
│ │ I'll start by understanding the existing auth structure. │ │
│ │ Let me examine the current implementation. │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ [Tool: Glob **/*.ts in src/auth/] │ │
│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ ┌─ Tool Result ────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
│ │ Found 4 files: login.ts, types.ts, middleware.ts, utils.ts │ │
│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ ┌─ Assistant ──────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
│ │ Good, there's an existing auth module. I see login.ts │ │
│ │ handles the login flow. Let me read it to understand the │ │
│ │ current approach before making changes. │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ [Tool: Read src/auth/login.ts] │ │
│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ View: [Conversation] [Tools Only] [Thinking Only] │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
**Features:**
- Full conversation history with role labels (System, User, Assistant, Tool)
- Collapsible tool calls and results
- "Thinking" blocks shown separately (if available in logs)
- Search within conversation
- Jump between turns
- Sync with activity stream (click event → jump to conversation point)
**Why valuable:** Users see *why* decisions were made, not just what happened. Debug reasoning failures, understand worker logic, learn from good decisions.

### 12. Semantic Activity Narrative
Real-time natural language description of what's happening, updated as workers progress:
```
┌─ Live Narrative ────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ w-alpha (bd-1847 "Implement auth flow") │
│ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ │
│ Phase: Implementation (was: Research) │
│ │
│ "Alpha finished analyzing the existing auth code and is now │
│ writing a new JWT-based login function. It has created the │
│ token generation logic and is currently implementing the │
│ validation middleware." │
│ │
│ Key decisions made: │
│ • Chose JWT over session cookies (for stateless scaling) │
│ • Using existing User type from types.ts │
│ • Adding refresh token support │
│ │
│ ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────│
│ │
│ w-bravo (bd-1852 "Fix login validation") │
│ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ │
│ Phase: Debugging │
│ │
│ "Bravo identified the validation bug: the email regex was too │
│ strict and rejected valid .co.uk addresses. Currently writing │
│ a fix and adding test cases for edge cases." │
│ │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
**Phases detected:**
- Research (reading files, searching codebase)
- Planning (analyzing, deciding approach)
- Implementation (writing/editing code)
- Testing (running tests, fixing failures)
- Debugging (investigating errors, fixing issues)
- Finalizing (committing, cleanup)
**Features:**
- Auto-generated from activity patterns
- Phase transitions highlighted
- Key decisions extracted from conversation
- Updates in real-time as events arrive
- Expandable for more detail
**Why valuable:** Instant understanding without parsing logs. Executives, PMs, or anyone can understand status at a glance.

### 13. AI Session Digest
On-demand or automatic session summaries:
```
┌─ Session Digest ────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ Session: 2026-03-02 14:00-15:45 (1h 45m) │
│ │
│ 📊 Overview │
│ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
│ │ Workers: 4 Tasks completed: 5/7 │ │
│ │ Cost: $8.42 Files changed: 23 │ │
│ │ Commits: 3 Lines added: 847 deleted: 234 │ │
│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ ✅ Completed │

│ │ 4│ export async function login( │
│ 14:31:55 w-alpha │ 5│ email: string, │
│ Analyzing dependencies... │ 6│ password: string │
│ │ 7│ ): Promise<User> { │
│ 14:31:47 w-alpha │ 8│ const user = await findUser │
│ Glob **/*.ts │ 9│ if (!user) { │
│ ↳ Found 23 files │ 10│ throw new AuthError(); │
│ │ 11│ } │
│ │ 12│ │
│ [Click any file event to │ 13│ const valid = await compare │
│ see file context] │ 14│ if (!valid) { │
│ │ 15│ throw new AuthError(); │
│ │ 16│ } │
│ │ 17│ │
│ │ 18│ return sanitize(user); │
│ │ 19│ } │
│ │ │
│ │ ───────────────────────────────── │
│ │ Recent operations on this file: │
│ │ • Read by w-alpha (14:32:01) │
│ │ • Edit by w-alpha (14:32:07) │

### 17. Recovery Playbook
When failures occur, show what worked in similar past situations:
```
┌─ Recovery Suggestions ──────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ Current Error │
│ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
│ │ Worker: w-bravo │ │
│ │ Error: TypeScript compilation failed │ │
│ │ File: src/api/handlers.ts:47 │ │
│ │ Message: Property 'userId' does not exist on type 'Request' │ │
│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ Similar Past Errors (3 found) │
│ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ #1 2026-02-28 Session (98% match) │ │
│ │ Error: Property 'user' does not exist on type 'Request' │ │
│ │ Resolution: Extended Request type in types/express.d.ts │ │
│ │ Time to resolve: 2 minutes │ │
│ │ ✅ Successful │ │
│ │ [View Solution] [Show Context] │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ #2 2026-02-25 Session (85% match) │ │
│ │ Error: Property 'session' missing on Request │ │
│ │ Resolution: Added middleware to populate property │ │
│ │ Time to resolve: 5 minutes │ │
│ │ ✅ Successful │ │
│ │ [View Solution] │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ #3 2026-02-20 Session (72% match) │ │
│ │ Error: Type mismatch in handler │ │
│ │ Resolution: Updated type definition │ │
│ │ ⚠️ Caused regression - NOT RECOMMENDED │ │
│ │ [View Details] │ │
│ │ │ │
│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ Suggested Recovery Steps │
│ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
│ │ Based on successful past resolutions: │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ 1. Check if userId is set by auth middleware │ │
│ │ 2. Extend Request type in types/express.d.ts │ │
│ │ 3. Verify middleware order in app setup │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ Confidence: High (2/3 past solutions worked) │ │
│ │ │ │
│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ [Dismiss] [Mark as Resolved] [Add to Playbook] │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
**How it works:**
1. Extract error signature (type, message pattern, file pattern)
2. Search historical session logs for similar errors
3. Find subsequent events that resolved the error
4. Rank by similarity and success rate
5. Present as actionable suggestions
**Error matching:**
- Exact match: same error type and message
- Pattern match: similar error type, related files
- Semantic match: similar context (same task type, same module)
**Feedback loop:**
- Mark resolution as successful/failed
- Improves future recommendations
- Build organizational knowledge base
**Why valuable:** Institutional memory. Don't repeat mistakes. Accelerate debugging. Workers (and humans) learn from past sessions.

### 18. Focus Mode with Pinning
Pin specific workers, tasks, or files. Everything else fades away:
```
┌─ FABRIC (Focus Mode) ───────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ 📌 Pinned: w-alpha, bd-1847 [Exit Focus Mode] │
│ │
│ ┌─ w-alpha on bd-1847 "Implement auth flow" ───────────────────┐ │

│ │ │ │
│ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ Activity (filtered to pinned only) │
│ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ 14:32:07 Edit src/auth/login.ts │ │
│ │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │
│ │ │ - function login() { │ │ │
│ │ │ + async function login(): Promise<User> { │ │ │
│ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ 14:32:01 Read src/auth/types.ts │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ 14:31:55 Thinking: "Now I need to implement the token │ │
│ │ validation. I'll create a new middleware..." │ │
│ │ │ │
│ │ 14:31:47 Glob **/*.ts → 23 files │ │
│ │ │ │
│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
│ │
│ ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── │
│ Other activity (3 workers, muted) [Show All] │
│ ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ │
│ │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
**Pinning modes:**
- Pin worker: Show only that worker's activity
- Pin task (bead): Show all workers working on that task
- Pin file: Show all operations on that file
- Pin multiple: Combine any of the above
**Keyboard shortcuts:**
- `p` - Toggle pin mode
- `P` - Clear all pins
- Click/Enter on item while in pin mode adds to pins
- `Esc` - Exit focus mode
**Visual treatment:**
- Pinned items: Full color, full detail
- Unpinned items: Grayed out, collapsed, or hidden
- Muted activity bar at bottom shows unpinned worker count
**Presets:**
- Save pin configurations as named presets
- Quick switch: `>focus alpha` or `>focus auth-task`
**Why valuable:** Reduce noise. Follow what matters. Deep focus on one task without distraction. Scales from "show me everything" to "show me just this."
