Surfaces the state Claude Code already writes to disk. Plus your Mac. Plus your Obsidian. Plus claude.ai. **Nothing to configure**: 24 tabs grouped into five sections (Now · Work · Explore · System · Learn), every one always available, styled entirely in VSCode theme tokens so the sidebar reads as part of the editor.
What's new in v1.0
- Approve — pending Claude actions awaiting human approval. Pre-action filesystem snapshots; one-click revert with sha256 drift detection. Aligns with the LeCun world-model stance: no autonomous multi-step LLM action without lookahead + scoring + rollback + human gate.
- Replay — scrub backwards through any active session, see exactly what changed at each step, fork the JSONL prefix into a Cockpit-owned dir. Cost projection card with daily-cap warning.
- Gallery — browse every skill in
~/.claude/skills/and agent in~/.claude/agents/. Share via clipboard. Install from HTTPS URL with SHA256 preview. - Tutorial — recommendation cards built from your session history. "You ran

window.cockpit.registerComponentwithout editing the COMPONENTS literal. Sibling scripts emitted as n
