Clare

Project manager for the Claude agent fleet. Sits on top of rclaude — Clare owns the fleet's work (projects, tasks, assignments, priorities); rclaude owns each agent's session (tmux, ssh, send-keys).

Install

Requires Python 3.13+ and uv.

cd ~/Code/@projects/@clare
uv venv
uv pip install -e ".[dev]"
./scripts/install.sh   # symlinks `clare` into ~/.local/bin

Quick start

clare init                                    # first run: generates machine_id + DB
clare project new "wozniak-cleanup" --goal "remove dead code paths"
clare task add wozniak-cleanup "scan for dead exports" --prio 1
clare pull                                    # refresh fleet view from rclaude
clare assign <task-id> <session-uuid>        # bind a task to a live claude session
clare status                                  # rolled-up dashboard
clare broadcast wozniak-cleanup --yes -- "please start"
clare web                                     # FastAPI dashboard at http://127.0.0.1:8765

Architecture

Event-sourced single-machine SQLite at ~/.local/share/clare/clare.db. Every write produces an append-only events row with a hybrid-logical-clock timestamp; projection tables (projects, tasks, assignments, sessions, updates, groups) are rebuilt from events. The HLC + event substrate is in place so a future Push B can add peer-to-peer sync without schema migration.

See DESIGN.md for full rationale.

Status

Push A (this scaffold): single-machine. CLI + web dashboard + pull loop. Sync deferred.

Push B (next): httpx peer pull/push, /api/sync/events endpoints, multi-machine integration tests.
