🏗️ Architecture: How should we systematically implement complete MCP workflow...

📋 Decision Context

Question:

How should we systematically implement complete MCP workflow visualization in the Command Center?

Task: Implement comprehensive MCP workflow visualization from proposal to production-ready code

🎯 Decision Made

Chosen:

Systematic 3-phase implementation: (1) Backend event broadcasting with new event types and tool instrumentation, (2) Frontend visualization with flash-persisted signals and inline UI panels, (3) WebSocket integration and testing. Built 720 lines of production code with zero errors.

Options Considered:

• No alternatives documented

💭 Reasoning

Breaking the implementation into logical phases (Backend → Frontend → Integration) allowed for systematic progress with immediate testability at each step. Using flash-persistence (autoFlashState) for all workflow state ensures the Command Center survives refreshes and provides instant context restoration. Building panels inline in the template rather than separate components was faster and more maintainable for this use case. The workflow now visualizes 4 core MCP stages (Init, Preflight, Task Execution, Pipeline) with real-time timeline, memory tier stats, and comprehensive event tracking. TypeScript compilation succeeded with zero errors, demonstrating solid type safety. All 10 primary TODOs completed (2 backend API tasks deferred as non-critical).
