Summary

Creates a comprehensive Product Requirements Document for issue #475 - expanding the live panel to show system execution information.

What's in the PRD

The PRD (prds/system-status-panel.md) includes:

  • Current state analysis - How the existing "Relevant Context" panel works
  • Problem statement - Why system visibility is needed
  • Functional requirements - Dual panel display, task status, operation counters
  • Non-functional requirements - Performance, UX, maintainability
  • Design proposals - UI mockups for terminal display
  • Technical architecture - Data flow, component structure, implementation details
  • Implementation plan - 5-phase rollout from foundation to polish
  • Success metrics - Performance targets and qualitative goals
  • Risk mitigation - Addressing performance, UI clutter, and backward compatibility

Key Features Proposed

  1. Background task visibility - Show active/scheduled tasks from APScheduler
  2. Memory operation counters - Display progress toward consolidation/creation
  3. Active operation indicators - Show when consolidation or context refresh is running
  4. Configuration toggle - New show_system_status_panel option

Changes

  • ✨ New file: prds/system-status-panel.md - Complete PRD
  • 📝 Updated: ROADMAP.md - Added to Current Priorities section

Next Steps

Once this PRD is approved:

  1. Implement Phase 1 (Foundation) - Data structures and fetching
  2. Implement Phase 2 (UI Rendering) - Panel display
  3. Continue through phases to completion

Closes #475

- Background task status (memory consolidation, context refresh)
- Memory operation counters (messages/memories until next operation)
- Active operations indicators
- Configurable display toggle

The PRD includes:
- Current state analysis
- Functional and non-functional requirements
- UI mockups and design proposals
- Technical architecture and data flow
- Implementation plan with phases
- Success metrics and risk mitigation

Updated ROADMAP.md to track this as a current priority.
