Why this would be needed

Start inside the user's day · Public facts + observable behavior · 2026-09-01

Use case

Developers or tech leads need to observe the execution flow of Claude Code sessions in real time.

Developers may rely on logs or manual observation, but lack visual flow.

Claude Code sessions are opaque, making it hard to track and debug, affecting efficiency.
