FAQPage Schema
How do I create a persistent live dashboard for monitoring progress?▼

To create a persistent live dashboard, you define an interactive workspace with a name and initial content. The workspace maintains its state across sessions, allowing teams to visualize ongoing work and long-running progress displays.

What is the best way to manage and update interactive workspaces for live content?▼

Managing interactive workspaces involves updating, listing, and stopping canvases to reflect progress and changes. This approach supports live dashboards and interactive menus, enabling teams to maintain and guide user actions effectively.

Do I need YAML to set up an interactive workspace?▼

Yes, setting up an interactive workspace requires a YAML frontmatter with a name and description in the SKILL.md file. This enforces a standardized structure for your dashboard and supports optional scripts and references directories.

Can I use this approach for long-running progress displays across sessions?▼

Yes, this approach is specifically applicable to long-running progress displays and live dashboards. It provides persistent, interactive workspaces that enable teams to visualize work and maintain state across multiple sessions.
