# Environment Handoff: Plan + Blockers (2026-03-03)

## Scope completed in this environment

- Reviewed the last 24h code changes focused on new dashboard services and images:
  - LiteLLM
  - CC Connect
  - Info Engine
  - Sidebar/service wiring
- Implemented one concrete fix:
  - `dashboard/docker-compose.yml`
    - Set `LITELLM_URL=http://litellm:4005`
    - Added dashboard service to external network `nas-dashboard_internal`
    - Declared `nas-dashboard_internal` under top-level `networks` as `external: true`

## Current git state summary

- Local branch context encountered during work:
  - `dev` had two local commits ahead of remote at one point:
    - `c29bda7` (includes `dashboard/docker-compose.yml` + `dashboard/frontend/src/routes/Terminal.svelte`)
    - `da88513` (`dashboard/backend/routers/terminal.py`)
- `main` was behind `origin/main` and was fast-forwarded locally during troubleshooting.
- Final push/merge sequence was not fully completed in this environment due runtime/interaction blockers (below).

## Blockers in this environment

1. **No Docker runtime in this shell**
   - `docker: command not found`
   - Impact: cannot run compose/runtime verification (`docker compose config`, container health checks, end-to-end service validation).

2. **Limited/fragile git remote auth flow in this session**
   - Token push via URL works for some commands, but interactive/approval interruptions occurred during follow-up operations.
   - Impact: full unattended sequence (`push dev -> validate -> merge main -> push main`) was interrupted and must be re-executed in a more capable/stable environment.

3. **Branch divergence handling required care**
   - `main` and `dev` divergence prevented `--ff-only` merge in one attempted sequence.
   - Impact: merge strategy should be re-run intentionally after confirming remote heads in target environment.

## Recommended next steps (for stronger environment)

1. **Sync and inspect branch heads**
   - Fetch all refs and inspect divergence between `origin/main` and `origin/dev`.
   - Confirm whether commits `c29bda7` and `da88513` are already on remote `dev`.

2. **Validate compose and runtime behavior on NAS-capable host**
   - Validate `dashboard/docker-compose.yml` syntax.
   - Confirm network exists:
     - `nas-dashboard_internal`
   - Verify dashboard container can resolve and reach `litellm:4005` on shared network.

3. **Functional verification from dashboard backend**
   - Check `/api/litellm/health` returns `up` or expected `auth_required`.
   - Check CC Connect health/start/stop endpoints against actual container name.
   - Check Info Engine endpoints (`/api/info-engine/items`, `/api/info-engine/health`) with mounted DB path.

4. **Complete git delivery flow**
   - Push finalized `dev`.
   - Merge `dev -> main` using the repo’s preferred strategy.
   - Push `main`.
   - Confirm CI/deploy workflows trigger as expected.

## Files directly touched for the LiteLLM networking fix

- `dashboard/docker-compose.yml`

## Notes for next Claude instance

- This repo’s remote is Gitea at:
  - `http://localhost:3300/jimmy/nas-tools.git`
- External UI URL from project context:
  - `https://git.jimmygan.com`
- Prior user preference in this thread:
  - Keep CC Connect sidebar label lowercase.
