README

JSONL liveness

Standalone Bun + TypeScript CLI and live web app. The scanner/TUI have no third-party runtime dependencies. The browser now uses **React + Tailwind**, explicitly requested after the original zero-dependency lab.

Timestamp meanings

**File updated** is the filesystem modification time, not the time a message was sent. Each recent-message preview shows its own **Message** timestamp; the popup also shows **Last recorded event**. All are displayed in local time. A later file write does not prove a new chat message arrived or that an agent is working.

See it live

The home table puts the latest recorded messages first. A newly arrived or changed message briefly fades its highlight and New badge in, then out; file touches and alias changes do not. Click a session row to open its **live popup**. Complete messages refresh every **2 seconds**; choose **Newest first** or **Jump to latest** to follow activity.

Timeline: one table, no popup

Open **Timeline**, or go directly to `http://127.0.0.1:47881/?view=timeline`. Each event gets its own comfortable multiline row with **project/directory**, **recorded date/time**, **session ID**, and **message or tool text**. Multiple rows can belong to the same session. Content is readable inline: no session popup, sidebar, or extra click is required.

All projects or one exact project; search messages, names, IDs and paths.
New events → At the top is the default: new arrivals appear above existing rows. Choose At the bottom for a downward stream. New rows fade their highlight and New badge in, then back out; Reduce Motion disables the animation. Existing rows do not animate on every poll.
