File Editing

Press e on any item to open in your preferred editor:

• Terminal state preserved (alternate screen mode)
• Cross-platform (macOS, Linux, Windows)

MCP Server Management

The MCP tab provides comprehensive server monitoring:

Status Detection (Unix):

• Checks running processes via ps aux
• Extracts package name from command
• Displays PID when running
• Windows shows "Unknown" status

Server Details:

• Full command and arguments
• Environment variables with values
• Config file path (~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json)
• Quick edit/reveal actions

Navigation:

• h/l or ←/→: Switch between list and details

• Enter: Focus detail pane
• e: Edit MCP config
• o: Reveal config in finder
• r: Refresh server status

Usage Examples

Daily Monitoring

# Launch dashboard
/dashboard

# Check activity and costs
# Press '1' for overview
# Press '6' for costs breakdown
# Press '7' for recent history

MCP Troubleshooting

# Open MCP tab
/mcp-status

# Or: ccboard then press '8'

# Check server status (● green = running)
# Press 'e' to edit config if needed
# Press 'r' to refresh status after changes

Session Analysis

# Browse sessions
/sessions

# Press '/' to search
# Filter by project: /my-project
# Filter by model: /opus
# Press 'e' on session to view full JSONL

Cost Tracking

# View costs
/costs

# Press '1' for overview
# Press '2' for breakdown by model
# Press '3' for daily trend

# Identify expensive sessions
# Track cache efficiency (99.9% hit rate)

Web Interface

Launch browser-based interface for remote monitoring:

# Launch web UI
/ccboard-web

# Or with custom port
ccboard web --port 8080

# Access at http://localhost:3333

Features:

• Same data as TUI (shared backend)
• Server-Sent Events (SSE) for live updates
• Responsive design (desktop/tablet/mobile)
• Concurrent multi-user access

Run both simultaneously:

ccboard both --port 3333

Architecture

ccboard is a single Rust binary with dual frontends:

ccboard/
├── ccboard-core/      # Parsers, models, data store, watcher
├── ccboard-tui/       # Ratatui frontend (8 tabs)
└── ccboard-web/       # Axum + Leptos frontend

Data Sources:

• ~/.claude/stats-cache.json - Statistics
• ~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json - MCP config
• ~/.claude/projects/*/ - Session JSONL files
• ~/.claude/settings.json - Global settings
• .claude/settings.json - Project settings
• .claude/settings.local.json - Local overrides
• .claude/CLAUDE.md - Rules and behavior

Troubleshooting

ccboard not found

# Check installation
which ccboard

# Install if needed
/ccboard-install

No data visible

# Verify Claude Code is installed
ls ~/.claude/

# Check stats file exists
cat ~/.claude/stats-cache.json

# Run with specific project
ccboard --project ~/path/to/project

MCP status shows "Unknown"

• Status detection requires Unix (macOS/Linux)
• Windows shows "Unknown" by default
• Check if server process is actually running: ps aux | grep <server-name>

File watcher not working

• Ensure notify crate supports your platform
• Check file permissions on ~/.claude/
• Restart ccboard if file system events missed

Advanced Usage

Command-line Options

ccboard --help              # Show all options
ccboard --claude-home PATH  # Custom Claude directory
ccboard --project PATH      # Specific project
ccboard stats               # Print stats and exit
ccboard web --port 8080     # Web UI on port 8080
ccboard both                # TUI + Web simultaneously

Environment Variables

# Editor preference
export EDITOR=vim
export VISUAL=code

# Custom Claude home
export CLAUDE_HOME=~/custom/.claude

Integration with Claude Code

ccboard reads read-only from Claude Code directories:

• Non-invasive monitoring
• No modifications to Claude data
• Safe to run concurrently with Claude Code
• File watcher detects changes in real-time

Performance

• Binary size: 2.4MB (release build)
• Initial load: <2s for 1,000+ sessions
• Memory: ~50MB typical usage
• CPU: <5% during monitoring
• Lazy loading: Session content loaded on-demand

Limitations

Current version (0.1.0):

• Read-only: No write operations to Claude data
• MCP status: Unix only (Windows shows "Unknown")
• Web UI: In development (TUI is primary interface)
• Search: Basic substring matching (no fuzzy search yet)

Future roadmap:

• Enhanced MCP server management (start/stop)
• MCP protocol health checks
• Export reports (PDF, JSON, CSV)
• Config editing (write settings.json)
• Session resume integration
• Enhanced search with fuzzy matching
