This file is the practical handoff summary for the current Codex Workspace state.
Use it after reading the core handover pack when you need to understand:
- what has already been built
- where the canonical docs now live
- what remains to be done next
The canonical handover Markdown now lives in:
docs/
The shared/ folder now holds workspace metadata such as:
shared/repo-index.jsonshared/standards.md
The workspace foundation is in place:
docs/,repos/,tools/,cache/, andshared/exist- shared cache placeholders exist
- shared helper scripts exist under
tools/scripts/ - template files exist under
tools/templates/ - the handover pack now lives under
docs/
The repos/workspace-hub/ repo has been scaffolded and is independently runnable.
Implemented so far:
- repo discovery across sibling repos under
repos/ - conservative repo classification
- manifest-aware repo metadata
- open actions for repo, README, manifest, preview, and terminal
- start, stop, and restart runtime controls
- health checks for local URLs
- persisted per-repo metadata overrides
- manifest authoring for
.workspace/project.json - repo-local documentation under
repos/workspace-hub/docs/
The most practical next product step is:
- Add repo diagnostics in
workspace-hub - Surface Git branch and dirty state
- Surface dependency-readiness warnings for repos with commands but missing installs
The next useful docs step is:
- Expand runtime troubleshooting and operator guidance under
repos/workspace-hub/docs/
The workspace is not fully complete against the broadest interpretation of the original roadmap.
What appears complete or substantially complete:
- workspace foundation
- shared tooling and caches
- initial Workspace Hub build
- repo discovery
- repo detection
- manifest support
- core repo actions
- runtime start or stop flows
- persisted metadata
- manifest authoring
What still reads as open or partial in the docs:
- richer repo diagnostics
- favourites and last-opened persistence
- clearer dependency-readiness feedback
- fuller ServBay-aware polish beyond the current optional stance
- additional runtime troubleshooting documentation
