One static HTML file, one Python scanner, no server, no database, no SaaS. What this is You keep a markdown file inside each project folder — your \"canonical brief.\" A small Python scanner walks those folders, reads the briefs, and bakes the data into war-room.html . You open the HTML in any browser and see one tab per project: file activity, last-touched timestamps, and the brief itself rendered live. That's the whole loop. Update a brief, scanner picks it up on the next pass, dashboard reflects it. Why If you run multiple side projects and care about not losing context between sessions, the brief becomes the source of truth. The dashboard is just a view over the briefs — no separate state to drift. Requirements - Python 3.9 or newer - Any modern browser That's it. Quick start Then on Windows, double-click start-watcher.bat . On macOS or Linux: Open war-room.html in your browser. You'll see three example projects (Project A, B, C) populated from the briefs in example-projects/ . The watcher rescans every 30 seconds; hit the REFRESH button in the dashboard to re-read the file. Add your own project 1. Drop a brief into your project folder. Anywhere on disk. Name the file whatever you want — PROJECT BRIEF.md is the default. Use the example briefs in example-projects/ as a template. 2.
