Problem

hero_proc_ui has a connection status indicator (green dot in navbar) that shows:

UI Server: version + responding status
Backend: responding status
Last checked timestamp + "Recheck now" button

Other service UIs (hero_redis_ui, hero_embedder_ui, hero_books_ui, hero_inspector_ui, hero_collab_ui, hero_browser_ui, hero_whiteboard_ui, etc.) don't have this. Users can't tell if the backend is healthy without checking container logs.

Part 1 — Connection status component for all UIs

Pattern (from hero_proc_ui)

static/js/connection-status.js — standalone JS module
Checks UI /health endpoint + backend RPC rpc.health via /rpc/proxy
Renders green/red dot + expandable panel on click
Auto-checks every 30s

Services to add it to

Service UI	Backend	Notes
hero_redis_ui	hero_redis_server	Has own WASM island wrapping iframe
hero_embedder_ui	hero_embedder_server	WASM island
hero_books_ui	hero_books_server	Iframe island
hero_inspector_ui	hero_inspector_server	WASM island
hero_collab_ui	hero_collab_server	Iframe island
hero_browser_ui	hero_browser_server	Iframe island
hero_whiteboard_ui	hero_whiteboard_server	Iframe island
hero_foundry_admin	hero_foundry_server	WASM island
hero_aibroker_ui	hero_aibroker_server	WASM island

Implementation

Extract connection-status.js from hero_proc_ui into a reusable pattern
Each UI includes it in their base template
Config: UI health URL + backend RPC URL (service-specific)

Part 2 — Extend smoke tests for new services

Add to `hero_services/tests/smoke.sh`

Health checks:

hero_collab_ui, hero_collab_server
hero_browser_ui, hero_browser_server
hero_whiteboard_ui, hero_whiteboard_server

RPC connectivity:

Call rpc.health or rpc.discover on each server via its UI proxy
Verify response contains "result"

Target: 57+ smoke tests covering all services

Part 3 — Foundry seed data

hero_foundry_admin and hero_foundry_ui both show "No repositories" when empty. Need:

Demo repos seeded on startup (similar to how hero_books seeds libraries)
Or a "Demo" button that populates sample repos

Implementation Plan

Step 0: Extend `connection-status.js` module (hero_proc)

The current module's popover is hardcoded — no way to inject service-specific data (model counts, key counts, etc.). Add an optional extraInfoFn callback that returns key/value pairs rendered as extra rows in the popover. Backwards-compatible — services that don't use it see no change.

Step 1a: Add indicator — hero_books_ui

Copy module, add HTML snippet (status-dot + status-label) to navbar in base.html, add init call. Has /health endpoint already.

Step 1b: Add indicator — hero_foundry_admin

Same pattern as books. Has /health endpoint, has base.html with navbar.

Step 2a: Standardize — hero_redis_ui

Replace custom inline polling with standard module. Preserve keys count + memory usage via extraInfoFn calling redis.info.

Step 2b: Standardize — hero_embedder_ui

Replace custom inline polling. Preserve model count + quality levels (Q1-Q4) via extraInfoFn calling info RPC.

Step 2c: Standardize — hero_aibroker_ui

Replace custom inline polling. Preserve model count + provider count via extraInfoFn calling info RPC.

Step 2d: Standardize — hero_inspector_ui

Replace SSE-based status dot with standard module. Keep SSE for service discovery events (separate concern).

Step 3: Rebuild — hero_browser_ui

Full dashboard rebuild following hero_proc_ui pattern:

Askama templates (base.html + index.html)
Embedded Bootstrap 5.3.3 + Icons 1.13.1 + Unpoly via rust-embed (no CDN)
Standard navbar with connection-status.js status dot
Sidebar with stats (active sessions, total pages, activity count)
Tabs: Sessions, Activity Log, Integration Guide, API Docs
Dark/light theme toggle
Standard dashboard.css with compact sizing

Step 4: Foundry seed data

Seed demo repositories on startup so neither foundry service shows empty UI:

hero_foundry (admin/API backend): create demo repos with branches/tags/commits via the API
hero_foundry_ui (web repo browser): discovers same repos from filesystem — distinct read-only browsing UI, not a duplicate

Step 5: Extend smoke tests

Add health + RPC connectivity tests for new/updated services to hero_services/tests/smoke.sh, targeting 57+ total tests.

Step 6: Sync module copies

Copy updated connection-status.js to hero_collab_ui and hero_whiteboard_ui so all copies match.

Post-#70 Follow-up Items

These are pre-existing issues discovered during testing, not regressions from #70:

1. Compute UI blank page

hero_compute_ui loads but shows blank content
Not touched in #70 — separate investigation needed

2. Foundry seed data not wired into entrypoint

seed_data example binary and seed-foundry-repos.sh script were created
Need to: build seed_data binary, include in dist, call from Docker entrypoint
Both foundry admin and foundry UI show "No repositories registered"

3. Redis SSO token invalid in iframe

Redis UI shows {"error":"invalid token"} when loaded via Hero OS iframe
SSO token from parent frame not being passed correctly
Pre-existing auth flow issue, not related to connection-status changes

4. hero_agent integration (issue #72)

Rust replacement for hero_shrimp — 12K lines already written
Needs hero_proc lifecycle, admin UI, service config, smoke tests

Squash Merged to Development

All 11 repos squash merged and pushed. Branches cleaned up.

hero_proc_ui
hero_books_ui
hero_browser_ui (shows Backend Down — needs pingFn fix)

Code deployed but needs per-service fixes:

hero_embedder_ui — dot exists but not visible (CSS/init timing)
hero_redis_ui — blocked by SSO token issue in iframe
hero_inspector_ui — shows "backend down" text, pingFn calls wrong method
hero_aibroker_ui — dot visible but not clickable (Bootstrap load order)
hero_foundry_admin — dot only on repo pages, not repo list
hero_collab_ui — CSS not loading (absolute paths in iframe)
hero_whiteboard_ui — web view template loads in iframe, not admin view

Infrastructure delivered:

connection-status.js module with extraInfoFn
96 smoke tests (94 pass, 0 fail)
UI integrity test section (assets, status-dot, broken paths)
Browser UI full dashboard rebuild
Foundry seed data example
Makefile dist-quick now includes shrimp

Next: Fix remaining 8 services

Each needs specific per-service attention to work correctly in the Hero OS iframe context. Will continue in follow-up.

Fixed

hero_voice_ui — Moved status dot from bottom status bar to navbar header next to "HeroVoice" brand text. Popover placement changed from top to bottom. Matches the hero_proxy_ui pattern perfectly.

hero_indexer_ui — The actual served UI is from lhumina_code/hero_indexer_ui/ (Askama templates in templates/base.html, 2944 lines rendered), NOT from hero_indexer/crates/hero_indexer_ui/static/index.html (167 lines, separate rust-embed app). Replaced the non-clickable CSS-only status dot with the full clickable popover (health + RPC ping + recheck button).

hero_proxy_server — Root handler (/) was showing a service discovery dashboard instead of redirecting to Hero OS. Added HERO_PROXY_DEFAULT_SERVICE check: when set, redirects / to the configured service (e.g. /hero_os_ui/). Dashboard still accessible when env var is unset.

hero_services — Two fixes:

entrypoint.sh: socat bridge was routing port 6666 → hero_proxy_ui.sock (admin dashboard only). Fixed to route to hero_proxy_server TCP:9997 (the actual reverse proxy).
hero_proxy.toml: Added HERO_PROXY_DEFAULT_SERVICE = "hero_os_ui" so root redirects to Hero OS.

UI patterns for connection status indicator

Three different UI architectures encountered across services:

Pattern	Services	How it works
Shared JS module (`connection-status.js`)	hero_proc_ui, hero_books_ui, hero_embedder_ui, hero_inspector_ui, hero_browser_ui, hero_collab_ui, hero_whiteboard_ui, hero_foundry_admin	External JS file loaded via `<script src>`, configurable per service
Inline JS poller (rust-embed static HTML)	hero_voice_ui, hero_proxy_ui, hero_auth_ui	Self-contained inline `<script>` block before `</body>`, Bootstrap Popover with health+RPC polling
Askama template + inline JS	hero_indexer_ui, hero_osis_ui, hero_biz	Inline poller added to Askama `base.html` template, compiled at build time

All patterns produce the same UX: green pulsing dot → click → popover showing UI Server + Backend status + recheck button.

Smoke tests

111 passed, 0 failed, 2 skipped.

Matches the hero_proxy_ui pattern perfectly. **hero_indexer_ui** — The actual served UI is from `lhumina_code/hero_indexer_ui/` (Askama templates in `templates/base.html`, 2944 lines rendered), NOT from `hero_indexer/crates/hero_indexer_ui/static/index.html` (167 lines, separate rust-embed app). Replaced the non-clickable CSS-only status dot with the full clickable popover (health + RPC ping + recheck button). **hero_proxy_server** — Root handler (`/`) was showing a service discovery dashboard instead of redirecting to Hero OS. Added `HERO_PROXY_DEFAULT_SERVICE` check: when set, redirects `/` to the configured service (e.g. `/hero_os_ui/`). Dashboard still accessible when env var is unset. **hero_services** — Two fixes: 1. `entrypoint.sh`: socat bridge was routing port 6666 → `hero_proxy_ui.sock` (admin dashboard only). Fixed to route to `hero_proxy_server` TCP:9997 (the actual reverse proxy). 2. `hero_proxy.toml`: Added `HERO_PROXY_DEFAULT_SERVICE = "hero_os_ui"` so root redirects to Hero OS. ### UI patterns for connection status indicator Three different UI architectures encountered across services: | Pattern | Services | How it works | |---------|----------|-------------| | **Shared JS module** (`connection-status.js`) | hero_proc_ui, hero_books_ui, hero_embedder_ui, hero_inspector_ui, hero_browser_ui, hero_collab_ui, hero_whiteboard_ui, hero_foundry_admin | External JS file loaded via `<script src>`, configurable per service | | **Inline JS poller** (rust-embed static HTML) | hero_voice_ui, hero_proxy_ui, hero_auth_ui | Self-contained inline `<script>` block before `</body>`, Bootstrap Popover with health+RPC polling | | **Askama template + inline JS** | hero_indexer_ui, hero_osis_ui, hero_biz | Inline poller added to Askama `base.html` template, compiled at build time | All patterns produce the same UX: green pulsing dot → click → popover showing UI Server + Backend status + recheck button. ### Smoke tests 111 passed, 0 failed, 2 skipped.
