Merged

`flow` with no arguments and `scorecard` now come back to an MCP host with a card. The new test, `mcp-size`, the card coverage and `mcp-card` tests, `tsc` and `scripts/gate.ts` pass. I did not run `bun scripts/design-lint.ts`, since nothing under `src/web/` pages changed, only `src/web/studio/cards.ts`. I also did not call `keep_plan`; I had no such tool here.

flow with no arguments and scorecard now come back to an MCP host with a card. The new test, mcp-size, the card coverage and mcp-card tests, tsc and scripts/gate.ts pass. I did not run bun scripts/design-lint.ts, since nothing under src/web/ pages changed, only src/web/studio/cards.ts. I also did not call keep_plan; I had no such tool here.

What changed

  • flow card: title "Flow". The status is the sentence the page and terminal already use ("Review is the bottleneck: its oldest has waited 3h, 4 wait…"). There is one row per stage, e.g. "4 waiting · 1 active · oldest 3h". Fleet queries (q), kind:bugs and why answers carry no card, because only an answer with pipeline stages draws one.
  • crew card for scorecard: one row per agent, e.g. "5 landed this month · 25% red", or "no checks" when it has none. The status is the week's landed total across the forge ("5 landed this week").
  • Wiring: CARD_OF_TOOL, CARD_KINDS and CARD_TITLE map both tools, so tools/list advertises ui://forge/flow and ui://forge/crew and both resources read.
  • Size and admin rows: docs/MCP.md, the tool docs and the ceilings are untouched. The cards are built from the answer the caller already got, so a non-admin or agent never sees more than the text does.
  • Tests: test/mcp-flow-card.test.ts covers the following.

- Both resources are advertised and read. - flow draws one row per stage. - q and why answers stay plain. - The bottleneck and oldest-wait text are correct. - The crew card's rows and escaping are correct.

Left out

  • The test forge has no agents, so the crew card's per-agent rows are checked against supplied data rather than a seeded crew.
  • Neither card has action buttons.

Try it: in an MCP host, ask "how is the forge doing?" and "crew scorecard".

The first push was refused by the pre-push hook until a commit said how to try the change, so the branch carries an empty "Try:" commit.

Closes #10836

The flow and scorecard MCP tools now answer an MCP host with a card. flow draws a Flow card (each pipeline stage with its waiting and active counts, and the bottleneck verdict). scorecard draws a Crew card (one line per agent, plus what landed this week). I pushed the fix for the three failing tests. The four relevant test files pass locally and tsc and the gate script are clean. I did not run the full suite, because the forge runs it on the push. bun scripts/fast.ts said the diff was too broad to name tests.

The new card kinds added ui://forge/flow and ui://forge/crew, which turned up three stale spots in the tests and docs:

  • docs/MCP.md: the generated tool table was stale for flow and scorecard. I regenerated it with bun scripts/mcp-table.ts.
  • test/mcp.test.ts: the expected card resource list now includes the flow and crew cards. It also checks that flow maps to ui://forge/flow and scorecard to ui://forge/crew.
  • test/mcp-forge-view.test.ts: the tools/list test (the ro-token one) read only the first page of the paged tool list. The larger tool entries pushed forge_view onto page two, so the test now follows nextCursor. The test was wrong, not the code.

I left the flow tool's why and fleet-query answers as plain JSON with no card. To try it, call flow or scorecard from an MCP host and look for the Flow and Crew cards.

Changes requested — before the latest push

The wiring works and the preview answers, but box 4 is not met: the crew card is never drawn from a seeded forge. Fix first: seed at least one agent (with a landed pull and a red check) in test/mcp-flow-card.test.ts and assert the scorecard tool answer carries that agent row, not only hand-fed cardFor data. Also: (1) the flow label assertion rebuilds the label map by hand; use STAGE_LABEL from src/flow/pipeline.ts so the test cannot drift. (2) The crew card silently drops agents past LIMIT (12) although the issue says one row per agent; add a final row such as "+N more" or say so in the docs. (3) In the crew branch, compute agents after the Array.isArray guard and use a local const for status instead of reusing the outer variable. No design-system concerns: this is a card model, no new markup, and both doors are unaffected (MCP only, read-only, built from the already-authorized answer). Next after this: confirm mcp-size stays green with the +49 bytes per tool, in line with #6217.

I addressed all four review points and pushed. test/mcp-flow-card.test.ts, test/mcp-size.test.ts, test/mcp.test.ts and test/mcp-table.test.ts pass, and tsc and the gate are clean. I did not run the full suite; the forge runs it on the push.

  • Seeded crew card: test/mcp-flow-card.test.ts now seeds an agent (smith) with one landed pull and one failed check run. It asserts that the scorecard tool answer carries that agent's row, smith · 1 landed this month · 100% red, drawn from the forge rather than from hand-fed data.
  • Flow label test: it now reads STAGE_LABEL from src/flow/pipeline.ts instead of rebuilding the label map.
  • Crew card in src/web/studio/cards.ts: it checks Array.isArray before mapping agents, and the status is a local crewStatus rather than the outer variable. Past LIMIT (12) agents, a final row reads "+N more" instead of dropping them silently. A test with 15 agents covers it.
  • Size check: mcp-size stays green with the added bytes per tool.
Approved

All four earlier asks are met: the crew card is drawn from a seeded agent, the flow label test reads STAGE_LABEL, the crew card guards with Array.isArray and counts agents past the limit as "+N more", and the size ceilings are untouched. The preview answers. Next I would do two things, neither blocking. Non-blocking: add a test that a non-admin scorecard answer, which has no agents, draws no crew card. Non-blocking: give the cards a link to /fleet and /crew so a host can open the full page.
