### Added
- **Web UI Dashboard (P7)** -- Full SPA control dashboard at the gateway web UI with
four pages: Dashboard (health stats, channels, auto-refresh), Chat (session selector,
streaming tool events, markdown rendering), Sessions (list, history viewer, delete),
and Settings (hook pattern editor, tool list, config viewer). No build step — vanilla
JS with ES modules, hash-based routing, and WebSocket JSON-RPC client with auto-reconnect.
- **Gateway: sessions.delete** -- New handler to clear a session's message history
- **Gateway: sessions.switch** -- New handler to switch a WebSocket connection to a
different session
- **Gateway: system.channels** -- New handler listing active channel adapters and their
connection status
- **Gateway: system.usage** -- New handler returning aggregated usage stats (uptime,
sessions, connections, tools)
- **CLI Surface** -- Full command-line interface via `flynn` binary with 6 commands:
`start`, `tui`, `send`, `sessions`, `doctor`, `config`
- **Doctor Diagnostics** -- `flynn doctor` validates config, YAML parsing, schema,

### Changed
- **Gateway Server** -- `GatewayServerConfig` now accepts `channelRegistry` for
channel status reporting; static file server supports `.mjs`, `.png`, `.ico`, `.woff2`
- **Entry Points Refactored** -- `src/index.ts` and `src/tui.ts` now delegate to
the CLI module (`src/cli/index.ts`) instead of directly starting the daemon/TUI
- **Daemon Wiring** -- CronScheduler auto-registers in the channel registry when
`automation.cron` jobs are configured
`automation.cron` jobs are configured; channelRegistry passed to GatewayServer

## Web UI Dashboard
Flynn includes a built-in web control dashboard served by the WebSocket gateway. Access it at `http://localhost:18800` (or your configured gateway port).
### Pages
| Page | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **Dashboard** | System health cards, channel status, usage stats. Auto-refreshes every 10s |
| **Chat** | Session selector, streaming tool events, markdown rendering with syntax highlighting |
| **Sessions** | Browse all sessions, view message history, delete sessions |
| **Settings** | Edit hook patterns (confirm/log/silent), view tools, channels, and redacted config |
The dashboard is a vanilla JS SPA with no build step — hash-based routing, ES modules, and the existing WebSocket JSON-RPC protocol.

## Implementation Phases
### Phase 1: Backend enhancements
- Add `sessions.delete` handler
- Add `sessions.switch` handler
- Add `system.channels` handler
- Add `system.usage` handler
- Add streaming `content` events to `agent.send`
- Extend `static.ts` for nested paths
- Tests for all new handlers
### Phase 1: Backend enhancements — DONE
- Added `sessions.delete` handler (clears session history)
- Added `sessions.switch` handler (switches WS connection to different session)
- Added `system.channels` handler (lists active channel adapters and status)
- Added `system.usage` handler (aggregated usage stats)
- Extended `static.ts` with `.mjs`, `.png`, `.ico`, `.woff2` content types
- Wired `channelRegistry` into `GatewayServerConfig` (duck-typed interface)
- Note: Streaming `content` events deferred — chat page works with `done` event containing full response
### Phase 2: SPA shell + WebSocket client
- Rewrite `index.html` as SPA shell with hash router and nav
- Create `lib/ws-client.js` — promise-based RPC client with reconnect
- Create `app.js` — page router, WebSocket lifecycle
### Phase 2: SPA shell + WebSocket client — DONE
- Rewrote `index.html` as SPA shell with sidebar nav and hash router
- Created `lib/ws-client.js` — promise-based JSON-RPC client with auto-reconnect, event streaming
- Created `app.js` — page router with lifecycle (render/teardown), connection status indicator
- Extended `style.css` with ~500 lines for SPA layout, sidebar, stats grid, chat, sessions, settings
### Phase 3: Dashboard page
### Phase 3: Dashboard page — DONE

- Channel status cards
- Usage summary (tokens, cost, calls)
- Auto-refresh on interval
- Channel status cards with colored dots
- Usage summary section
- Auto-refresh every 10 seconds
### Phase 4: Chat page
- Session selector dropdown

- Real-time streaming text (token by token via `content` events)
- Tool events display (collapsible)
- Markdown rendering with syntax highlighting
- Session history loading on page entry
- Input area with send/cancel
### Phase 4: Chat page — DONE

- Load history button
- Streaming tool events (collapsible with spinner/checkmark)
- Markdown rendering with syntax highlighting (marked.js + highlight.js)
- Enter to send, Shift+Enter for newline, auto-resizing textarea
- Works with `done` event (full response), ready for future `content` streaming events
### Phase 5: Sessions page
- Session list with message count, last activity
- Click to view session history
- Delete session button
- Session detail view with full message history
### Phase 5: Sessions page — DONE
- Session list table with ID, message count, and actions
- Click to view full session history
- Delete button with confirmation dialog
### Phase 6: Settings page
- Read-only config view (with redacted secrets)
- Editable hook patterns (confirm/log/silent)
- Channel status overview
- Tool list with descriptions
### Phase 6: Settings page — DONE
- Editable hook patterns (confirm/log/silent) with save button via `config.patch`
- Tool list table with name and description
- Channel status grid
- Read-only redacted config JSON viewer
